The plot was pretty straightforward, we could guess the end from the beginning; it was a feel-good watch

DELICIOUS

---A beautifully selected cast? Linda Osifo, Segilola Ogidan, and Ade Laoye brought a fresh look to the film.

Carol King was elegantly stunning and the rest of the cast worked hard to deliver a natural and genuine performance

--- A Naija Christmas sent a nice signal to parents that certain norms have to change when it comes to marriage: "it's not by force?"

---The director of photography and the color grading team produced quality images that blended with the festive mood of the film

---The art director transported us into each actor's universe with a detailed decor

BLAND

---Screenplay was ok, apart from the little twists, there wasn't anything too gripping. The lines were rather cheesier than comic

---When you have a big celebrity like Mercy Johnson-Okojie, you expect her to have a significant role, which wasn't the case. Hence, we started wondering why a regular actress couldn't have played her role.

Rachel Oniga's absence in major parts of the film weakened the storytelling

---Overall, Naija Christmas appeared more like an American Christmas movie mostly due to the Christmasy score and flimsy scene sequences.

As the title suggests, this is a Christmas themed movie for Nigerians.

The story is nothing we haven't seen before but its told from a Nigerian perspective, its funny, quirky and the dialogue is great when compared with others available in the Nigerian market.

Each member of cast is given adequate time to shine and shine they very well did! Production was good (obviously a Netflix Original so $$), pacing was great (can't believe I sat through a comedy of 2hrs without noticing), jokes were perfectly timed, all in all it was a great effort at a Christmas themed Naija movie.

I totally enjoyed the movie, would definitely recommend (to my Naija folks!).
