Movie Review: ATM

Robinson (Alexx Ekubo) has a plan of getting permanent residency  abroad ,he is able to get a lady 'maga' Emilia(Oyinbo Princess) online.He extorts her and eventually made her come down to Nigeria so that he can marry her and set his fraudulent ideas(Authentic Tentative Marriage) in motion.Robinson informs his uncle Gbenga(Francis Odega)of his plan who supports him but wants his girlfriend Caro(Yvonne Jegede) to be carried along an idea Robinson did not like but her eccentric behaviour leaves him with no choice.

Emilia arrives and Robinson continues to fleece her but unknown to him Emilia understands and can speak pidgin language very well and so she gives him a shocker and crumbles his plans and holds him hostage.

The good:It was quite hilarious (The cinema audience laughed and i did to )to see a white speak pidgin  and she sure cracked ribs while she was at it .The movie also gives some sort of encouragement to youths and that one can make it in Nigeria.

Not so good:There were some typographical errors in the subtitling and one that can I remember was when i saw ribs spelt as 'rips'.For Uncle Gbenga i needed him to sound more yorubaish going by his name but it somewhat fly if we assume he is just Yoruba by name.There was also a bit of confusion when Robinson  had a sort of premonition of Emilia will turn against him....
The picture quality of the movie just okay,nothing off the hook.



Emilia's  discovery and true love for Robinson's coupled makes him have a genuine change of heart and stay back  to achieve his dreams and live happily ever after.

Overall I'll rate the movie okay..'just there' like we say in naija.

It is directed and produced by Lancelot Imaseun
