“TAINTED HEARTS” REVIEW

“Tainted Hearts” is an impactful movie addressing a very pertinent matter in marriage. It is therefore enlightening, instructive and restorative in its content and presentation. The film captures the story of Jeffery and Isioma, a couple who are not communicating well enough to agree on vital elements of their union, which leads to a degenerationContinue reading ““TAINTED HEARTS” REVIEW”

“MERCY’S GRIEF” REVIEW

The concept that drives the message of Mercy’s Grief is brilliantly vivid and I always appreciate productions that do the unusual. I believe in the power of the cinema – being seated before a screen where motion pictures tell a story that have the ability to touch spirit, soul and body within a given time.Continue reading ““MERCY’S GRIEF” REVIEW”

“AMIDST AFFLICTION” REVIEW

Amidst Affliction is the latest episode, if you will, in the Officer Collins series – stories centred on a police officer with high moral standards. I always appreciate that he is not portrayed as infallible; rather, he goes through challenges similar to what every one of us faces, and is able to come through takingContinue reading ““AMIDST AFFLICTION” REVIEW”

“OLASUPO” REVIEW

Olasupo marks the third entry in the Biopic genre engaged by drama ministers from the turn of this decade. It has great predecessors in The Train (2020) and Enoch (2023), thus giving it tough acts to follow. Nonetheless, the movie stays true to the things that make us love this genre – the (un)known storiesContinue reading ““OLASUPO” REVIEW”

“THE PROSTITUTE” REVIEW

If you ask me, I would say that the story of Hosea and Gomer is arguably the trickiest material in the Bible that a Christian screenwriter could base their script on. The last one I reviewed is In Love with A Prostitute (2021) and this one’s title is just as on the nose. BecauseContinue reading ““THE PROSTITUTE” REVIEW”

“JUST FOR THE STREET” REVIEW

Just for the Street has a nice opening that would settle any audience into a movie. Although this flow is disrupted right after with some choppy editing, the short film has bits and pieces of a cinematic atmosphere to it. The story centres on Taiwo and Kehinde, a set of twins from the same womb,Continue reading ““JUST FOR THE STREET” REVIEW”

“THE CRUISE” REVIEW

I am a huge fan of the short films written by Damilola Mike-Bamiloye in the 2010s, with A Minute More and A Hundred Thousand my personal favourites. Considering the fact that many brilliant features have since been the order of the day, it came to me as a surprise that The Cruise is a short.Continue reading ““THE CRUISE” REVIEW”
