Movie Review:Hakkunde

Akande (Kunle Idowu aka Frank Donga) is a graduate who is faced with unemployment and he became a senior applicant all to no avail,he also had to deal with  his overbearing  elder sister Yewande (Toyin Abraham).Akande gets fed up and decide to take a risk by following his friend /okada rider to Ibrahim(Ibrahim Daddy) to Kano to get freebie from Cattle allowance which never happened but opened up Akande to ideas,opportunities and love.

The first thing that was noteworthy to me in the movie was seeing the actor in a different role other than the comic roles he is used to playing,It also drives the point that it's good to be creative ,innovative and make a move with ideas and the results of working hard.The movie also gives us some comic scenes too.It also takes us into Cattle rearing  ,social life , a bit of culture obtainable in Northern Nigeria.

However there are some scenes that I wanted to see more eg,when Akande mistakenly pushed the egg seller and her eggs broke,I didn't like that that scene was interpreted in slow motion,action would have been better.The issue of sickle cell that was raised was not well addressed,the education was on the matter was sparse .At some point you could even loose touch with the movie .

 All in all Hakkunde could be said to that movie that seems to motivate you to 'just do it' quoting a line from the production' everything you ever wanted is on the other side of fear '

The movie is written by Tomi Adesina,Seyi Asurf &Jesurobo Owie Gift Imafidon.Directed by   Asurf Oluseyi and produced by Asurf Films

Overall rating I will give it Okay .
