FOR ME, there was nothing good about this movie. And I also got the inspired idea to ask two of my friends who also didn't like the movie to tell me specifically what they didn't like about it so I could add it to my review so it's not like I am playing the Devil's advocate, and also because the bible says "in the mouth of 2/3 witnesses a matter shall be established". Now there are three of us saying the movie wasn't good. I'll first start with their reviews before writing mine and I'll call them "Anonymous 1" and "Anonymous 2"
Anonymous 1's comments on the movie 1. I didn't like the movie 2. I didn't even think it was funny or anything 3. I kept hissing, rolling my eyes and looking at my friend in shock 4. Didnt give me any sugar rush as intended 5. I als0 wondered why they blatantly painted EFCC as corrupt 6. I didnt understand why they bought the house they bought 7. Take out the whole fighting scene at the end 8. All the dry jokes, they were trying too hard o 9. Then Adesua kept drifting in and out between being the sensible sister and being just like them
Anonymous 2's comments on the Sugar Rush Movie 1. O k... The story line was wack 2. I'm guessing it was supposed to be a comedy but I didn't quite get the humour. I was wandering if something was wrong with me when eve was laughing. Comedy ba wo? 3. Wait is it the same thing I saw Or is something wro g with my sense of humour
Here's my own review (includes spoilers) The Sugar rush movie was about two sisters that stumbled on $800,000 left behind by a man who was murdered. The sisters along with their third sister went on a spending spree that drew the attention of some man who claimed the money belonged to him, so he abducted their mother and asked them to return the money to him if they wanted to see their mum alive again. The sisters were also kidnapped by two EFCC guys who were supposed to have been watching them while they made away with the money and who couldn't prove 2 of the sisters were suspects because the video footage that showed them carting away the money was mysteriously deleted from the EFCC database. And the sisters were kidnapped by the daughter of the murdered man who asked the sisters to go steal money from Anikulapo, a man she was involved with since the money they stole from her late father was rightfully hers and they no longer had access to it. That's the gist of the movie in my own opinion. So what are my thoughts on it?
1. Goof 1: The three sisters' mother brought out a bible and Adesua said she was always going on and on about how the bible was going to lead them to their fortune blah blah blah so that should make us assume the sisters and their mum were Christians right? However, when they were chasing Andy to recover the money he stole from them, they ran through some muslim men praying and an Alfa asked them why they hadn't been to the mosque in a while for prayers meaning they were muslims right? How could they be Christians and muslims at the same time? 2. Goof 2: Bisola asked Adesua to calculate 360 X 800,000 and the answer they arrived at is N280 million. The right answer is N288 million. (yes I know I am petty! ) 3. The cinematography/production and picture quality was just ok. There was nothing fantastic about it. Isoken, Living in Bondage: breaking free and even AY's 30 days in Atlanta had way better cinematography and production quality. 4. The story line was very very weak! It felt like it was rapidly put together and wasn't given much thought or adequately developed. 5. None of the characters were also fully developed in my opinion. There were too many characters with too many things going on. 6. None of the characters were likeable or relatable in my opinion. They all just fell flat and even their acting left much to be desired. Only Omoni Oboli, Mawuli Gavor and the guy that spoke Yoruba with a heavy igbo accent did a decent job acting. Even Toke Makinwa's acting positively surprised me to be very honest. 7. The youngest sister's character was SUPER-ANNOYING! I legit wanted to slap her with an Omorogun throughout the movie. 8. There were so many irrelevant scenes that added NOTHING to the movie and the most annoying part was when the youngest daughter farted. Ahmean, comeon! Was that supposed to be funny and where we actually supposed to laugh? 9. I love to laugh A LOT! It's one of my favorite things to do. However, I did not laugh ONE single laugh in this 2 hour movie that was supposed to be a comedy and is being paraded as "funniest movie in cinemas till date" and "funniest film in years" 10. The fighting scene at the end was so fake! Ahmean how can we be acting that kind of fake fighting scene in 2019 nitori olorun?
So yeah. These are my thoughts on the movie that I would like to share. I will keep the rest to myself.
