This movie is just wow... From the Acting of Bimbo Ademoye... Which wow she really is a very amazing actress... To the slow burn romance... Avoiding the Basic Editing Mistake and The Expected Plot Twists... It actually holds up quite well, They worked with what the had and the result was a beautiful and stunning result... Bravo, the Actors (Especially Bimbo)... The writers and the directors. The only problem I had with this was the Editing it had a few cuts that are sometimes very hard to look at... And the plot twist which revealed that the father of Jayden was actually Lade, it was executed in a way that it was very expected but other than that this movie is perfect and the flaws are basically something you can ignore.

Big Love

This romcom sees a single mother as she tries to overcome her fears of accommodating new love into her life. The leads were university acquaintances reconnecting and falling in love at a graduate training camp.

A lot of expectations were set up for Big Love as it reunited its leads (Bimbo Ademoye and Timini Egbuson) after the success of Breaded Life, seeing how this was also directed by Biodun Stephen (the director of Breaded Life), the bar was raised even higher. But with all of these going for Big Love, it doesn't deliver up to expectations, the sweet charm that Breaded Life had is missing here. Much of this can be attributed to the dynamic between the leads, the loving is mostly one-sided, and even when reciprocation is attempted it feels contrived.

The chemistry between the leads is there, but nothing special is birthed. The acting is good but not memorable, but the duo of Jaiye Kuti and Shaffy Bello are a delight.

Big Love could have been a worthy predecessor but the screenplay falls short.

4-4.5/10.

The screenplay followed the typical love story route, so there wasn't much excitement there, then it only got authentic towards the end...

DELICIOUS

-The production design was beautiful? we have to appreciate the appealing, classy and luxurious costume n set designs that defined the characters and their residences

-Adekanla Desalu takes home the best actor award. His performance was natural and believable. He was composed, you could tell he was the big brother in the room, looking out for Adil

-Ladipo Abiola the DP has improved! No more unnecessary smoke on sets; the images were crisp n clear

-The story only got interesting towards the end. That's when we heard genuine dialogues and important themes on stereotypes and sacrificial love. Plus, characters' emotions became real

BLAND

-The movie was presented in a very cliche way with two people doing puppy love.

The dialogues were cheesy with the scenario moving in a predictable way as we already knew what Adina's issue was and that Adil's family would become a problem

-Bimbo Ademoye gave us "Bimo Ademoye" rather than "Adina". Her gestures n reactions seemed artificial and at times anticipated.

Timini, as always, gave us his usual loverboy look that there wasn't much to look forward to.

-The advertisement obstructed the flow of the movie. It was clearly apparent that Big Love was advertising Sterling Bank and Glitz Allure Fabrics as their logos were in our faces?
