Review-Girls Trip (2017)

Image via imdb.com
Going into the theater, I knew Girls Trip was going to be good but It was amazing! The plot follows Four lifelong friends who travel to New Orleans for the annual Essence Festival & they rekindle their sisterhood. The trip contained a lot of dancing, drinking, drugs, brawling, hook ups and romance which strengthened their bond. This movie was hilarious from the beginning till the credits rolled.

The cast was fantastic and they fit their roles perfectly, with Dina played by Tiffany Haddish being my favorite. I can't think of anyone who would have killed this role better than she did. It's as if she was born for the role, she delivered every line perfectly. The supporting cast which consisted of Mike Colter, Kofi Siriboe, Larenze Tate and Kate Walsh were also excellent. The major theme of Girls Trip is Friendship and it felt true because of how a lot of people could relate with at least one of the characters. The film was two hours long but I was still very engaged till the end, there was never a dull moment even though one or two scenes were a bit too much and unnecessary. I was really looking forward to the premiere of this movie in Nigeria and I didn't regret seeing it. I laughed so hard and teared up a bit. I honestly wouldn't mind a sequel from Malcolm D. Lee. Go see Girls Trip now if you haven't.

Goodbye Mike & Rachel- Suits' Seventh Season Finale Review

  Suits is one of my favorite Legal Drama's and for some reason, I'm still very invested in the show after 7 seasons. I don't think they've had any bad season and they've done such a great job with the growth and development of the major characters but the time to say goodbye to Mike and Rachel was finally here. Due to the fact that Meghan Markle would be getting married to Prince Harry, I guess it was a good time to wrap up her love story with Mike and they do this with the fairy tale wedding we've all been waiting for. Mike and Rachel have been an item since the first season and have been engaged since the fifth. They would have been married a season ago but were not able to because of Mike's time in prison. I always loved their chemistry and I was so sad to see them say goodbye and more than anything, I loved Mike and Harvey's relationship. It was so genuine and pure. The two final episodes of the final season of Suits aired back to back and...

"Don't Tell Mama"- The Shocking Sharp Objects Season Finale

   Sharp Objects easily tops the list of my all time favorite TV Series. The HBO Limited Series aired it eight and final episode last night and it's something I'll probably never forget. I'm trying so hard to find the right words to describe this amazing show and the phenomenal acting from Amy Adams, Patricia Clarkson and Eliza Scanlen. They were just too perfect. Throughout the season, we've all been trying to figure out who the killer was in this whodunnit and I had so many theories. I never believed it was John Keene because most times, it's always the person you least expect that'll end up being the perpetrator. My first suspect was Alan (Henry Czerny), Adora's husband and Amma's father. I thought the only reason he would venture out to killing teenage girls was due to the fact that he was no longer as had a bond with his daughter and his loveless marriage but I was so wrong. Then I thought it was the Police Chief, Bill who was in cahoots with Ado...

Chicago Justice: Series Premiere/Crossover Episode-"Fake"

Image via imdb.com I looked forward to seeing Chicago Justice after it was announced because I love the One Chicago universe even though I'm yet to see the other shows, i'm very familiar with their stories and characters. I'm a crazy fan of Chicago PD so I'm going to binge watch all the episodes of Chicago Fire, but I don't think I'll be able to see Chicago Med. Medical shows are too emotional for me. With Law and Order: Special Victims Unit, I don't know where to start from, but I'll binge watch from season one to eighteen whenever I can for sure.  The four part crossover started with an episode on Chicago Fire and concluded in the season premiere of Chicago Justice. There is a fire at a warehouse and the Chicago Fire crew think it's an accident but Severide (Taylor Kinney) finds metal wedges shoved under the door which means whoever started the fire wanted everyone trapped inside, so its arson. Image via nbc.com The warehouse was a spot...
