With this movie, Funke Akundele-Bello cements her place as Nollywood Royalty and she will be duly recognised in the hall of fame when we create it. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Omo Ghetto the saga ranks amongt the top movies of 2020. One beautiful thing that Funke Akindele-Bello achieved with this movie is the seamless merging of the Yoruba and English sections of Nollywood. The synergy and chemistry is a testament to her directorial skills, as well as the acting skills of the actors.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The movie covers so many issues we face in society today, including: drug abuse, advanced fee fraud, police corruption, cybercrimes, marriage scam, weapons, underage drug use, slum living, and highlights their challenges. It also showcases beautiful things like family support and loyalty, friendship, and love. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All of these are dealt with in a crucible of comedy, music, action, and drama. The comedy in the movie was unforced and elicited natural laughter. The one liner slangs were used in a natural way, to draw the audience in and build a bond with them.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the challenges of Nollywood movies is that of unrealistic fight scenes &#8211; actors&#8217; poor attempts at fights, and poor handling of weapons &#8211; but whoever choreographed the fight sequences in Omo Ghetto the saga deserves an award. The fights were totally real and the wounds were believable.&nbsp; <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The makeup for wounds from the fights were truly impressive. The make up artist certainly deserves an award as well. Everyone who had to handle a weapon showed they had handled it well. I would have said the party scene was too long, but the ending of the scene made up for it. It was a hilarious ending, one that was totally worth it.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This movie is a sequel, and the final scene seems to suggest there will be a third installment in the saga, afterall, you need a series of movies to truly have a saga. We hope the next installment will be worth it.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>NollyRated Score<\/strong>: Outstanding Movie (5\/5)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Join Our Tribe on Twitter:&nbsp;<\/strong>For updates on new Nollywood movie reviews, cinema reviews, and Nigerian movie personalities, join our tribe on Twitter&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NollyRated\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-schema-attribute=\"\">@NollyRated<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You can take the girl out of the ghetto, but can you take the ghetto out of the girl?
