I hope they have kept to their own style of making movies and have not tried to make a Tsotsi or Yizo Yizo cos I have not seen a good Naija action movie so far, but the romance, faith, comedy are really good just too long but good none the less. Mama Patience Ozokwor how I wish I could meet you with John Okafor I love you guys so much and Osita and Chinedu there are just so many who make us laugh reminding that body no be fire wood oh.

I dont have the patience of watching a Nigerian movie. I find them to be excessively prolonged and more often they lose the plot. Imagine having to watch Part I,II,III. Hai bo, I refuse to watch a person driving for fifteen minutes by the countryside and I do not like listening to their unven digital sounds and echo.

@ tpaz

Read my post thoroughly. I did not say a person is walking for five minutes and that is the reason why they lose the plot. They lose the plot because in the many parts of the movie( Part I,II,III) often one cannot make a connection of what other scenes in the movie have to do with the story at hand, hence I said they often lose the plot.
