    It definitely makes sense that Oyemekun is narrating because he is the only one that lived to tell the tale of the house of Gaa.

    • @EkwemReviews
      @EkwemReviews  Месяц назад +2

      Yes,but he is not in many of the scenes he is narrating so there is no straight connection from the scenes to him personally. How would he know how his father shot arrow to that Alaafin in the middle of the night?

      You're welcome. Plot was a bit all over the place but i expect good things from her next time. I hope the Kuti film she just made is good. I hate the poster

    Overall, it was a good movie. I would love for filmmakers to tell more of these stories through movies.
    Another historical movie from BAP that I love is the biopic of Funmilayo Ransome Kuti.

    "facial hair that looks like pubic hair" 😂
    If they wrote this line on a paper and asked me to guess who said this, I'd still be correct 100% 😂😂😂😂
    In general, the movie was on point.
    My major issue is the fact that as a Yoruba boy, I wasn't sure if I should categorise it as fiction or parody, because the movie deviates so much from the history of GAA and Yoruba history as a whole.
    For instance, Ibadan did not exist in Gaa's era.

      A different title should have been used then.
      I was expecting 100% depicion of Gaa's life, because of the title, "house of Gaa".

    On Oyemekun's part, I guess his role as narrator ties into him being the only person who survived the annihilation of Gaa's household.
