Alright, let’s talk about this Afamefuna movie, you know, the one everyone’s yapping about. I watched it, and well, I got some things to say.
First off, this Afamefuna fella, he’s a businessman, a big shot, I guess. The movie starts with him doing some funeral thing for his daddy, been dead a long time, mind you. Then, bam! Police show up, led by this Gidado Shehu guy, talking all fancy in three languages. Made my head spin a little, not gonna lie.
The Story, as I Understood It
So, this Afamefuna, he’s got this business, making money, you know, like those folks in the city do. But then his friend Paul, good fella, I reckon, he dies. And wouldn’t you know it, Afamefuna gets into trouble with the police. They hold him, and he’s gotta clear his name, protect his reputation. Sounds like a whole lot of mess to me.
The movie, it shows how Afamefuna, he comes from this tribe, this group of people, where they pass down money from one generation to the next. Keeps ’em rich, keeps ’em in business. Smart, I guess, if you can manage it. But it also shows how this boy, maybe Afamefuna when he was young, moves from one place, Onitsha, to another big place, Lagos. That’s like moving from one farm to a bigger farm, but with more cars and noise, I imagine.
What I Liked and What I Didn’t
Now, the actors, they did a good job, I gotta say. They felt real, like people you might meet on the street, well, maybe not on my street, but you know what I mean. The director, he made them act good, not all fake and fancy like some of them city folks do.
And the story, it was interesting. Kept me watching, wanting to know what happens next. It’s like when you’re gossiping with your neighbor, you just gotta hear the whole story, even if it takes all afternoon.
- Good acting, that’s for sure.
- The story, it kept me hooked.
- It showed how some folks make their money, interesting stuff.
But, and there’s always a but, ain’t there? The movie, it dragged a bit in some places. Like when you’re waiting for the bus and it’s late, you start tapping your feet, wondering when it’s gonna get going. And the ending, well, it wasn’t as clear as I like it. I like things tied up neat, like a good bow on a present. This one, it left me with a few questions, like “what happened to that guy?” and “did they ever catch the real bad guy?”. You know?
My Two Cents
So, is this Afamefuna movie good? Yeah, it’s alright. It’s not the best thing I ever seen, but it’s not the worst neither. It’s got a good story, good acting, and it makes you think a little bit about how some folks live their lives. If you got some time to spare, give it a watch. But don’t expect no explosions or fancy car chases, it ain’t that kind of movie. It’s more like a long story, a bit slow sometimes, but worth hearing in the end.
And that Rotten Tomatoes people, they say it’s a good one too, so I guess I ain’t the only one who thinks so. Though, I don’t know who these Tomato folks are, sounds like a bunch of city slickers to me. But hey, if they like it, and I like it, maybe it’s worth a watch, right?
Final words, This Afamefuna movie, well, it’s a story about a man and his troubles, his family, and his business. It’s a bit slow here and there, and the ending could be clearer, but overall, it’s a decent watch. Just don’t expect it to be like those fast-paced action movies the young folks like. This one’s more like a slow-cooked stew, takes its time, but fills you up in the end.
One more thing, I almost forgot, this movie talks about tradition and family, things that matter, even if you ain’t rich like Afamefuna. It shows how important it is to remember where you come from, and to take care of your own. And that’s something I can get behind, no matter how fancy or how countrified you are. That’s all from me. Go watch it and decide for your self.
