Some movies leave one with a feeling of glee while some
poorly executed flicks make one want to puke, punch
someone and throw a tantrum – all at once.
To help you avoid such a situation that’d leave you
fuming out of the cinema in utter disgust, we recommend the following movies.

concern. Things come to a head at her youngest sister’s
wedding when her overbearing mother thrusts her into an
orchestrated matchmaking with the ultimate Edo man,
Osaze. He is handsome, successful and from a good
family, making him perfect Nigerian husband material.
