Movie Review:Mum Dad Meet Sam

The movie is Produced by Segilola Ogidan and directed by Tony Sebastain Ukpo.
A Nigerian guy Josiah (Joseph Benjamin )who is the only son of his parents and  decides to take home to his parents back in Nigeria a White girl Samantha(Daniella Down) whom he has fallen in love with and wants to marry.
Fola (A Dot Comedian ) thinks it is not a good idea and Samantha's friend teaches her how to prepare Nigerian meals which is likely to cook.
The visit to Nigeria was dramatic as Mama A played by Helen Gold  (Josiah's mum ) didnt  accept Sam and tried to bring back his ex Morenike (Edith Nwenketa) into her son's life  a plan that broke up Sam and Josiah.Papa A (Anthony Ofeogbu) the cool calm  father of Josiah dad  to remind his  wife the difference in their tribes but still gave love a chance.This prompted to finally give her support to her depressed son who went back to get his missing rib.
 I had a problem when Sam told Josiah to get out of her room it kind of lacked the action required for that scene.The lumping of the outings of Josiah and Sam from  after church  also could have been separated just for better clarity.
Location,setting,acting was good.Soundtrack gave a good tone to the movie as well and Fola brought in some comic relief with his loud mouth and funny actions and Mama A's fainting when her son brought oyinbo home was classic (Typical of Some Naija mothers to react  like that but i haven't heard of any that fainted Lol)
I loved the message of the movie that Love has/should have no boundaries  and shouldn't discriminate and those mothers ehn please your baby boy will have to get married  but doesn't mean he will  not love you less/anylonger stop being a winch(witch) to your (to be)daughter in law .
The movie is a good one!
