Sylvia

Nollywood producing good films, lovely, for lovers of alternative films, outside the Hollywood house, the technical quality is not the best, and the outcome is probably predictable and nothing very innovative, but the editing pleases, good performances, romanticized and dramatized satisfyingly, love it...

This movie was simply outstanding. I was pleasantly surprised about all its aspects; although I would have preferred if they left the ending open, so it is not clear what choice the man would newly make. To anyone reading this review, do not let the ratings deter you from watching this excellent Nollywood movie!

I enjoyed this film. What a unique plot line. I don't think I've ever come across such a plot in a book or a movie. It was interesting and the characters were quite likeable and charismatic. I was engulfed in the story from the beginning to the end.

The first time I saw this movie I was blown away. I don't want to sound crazy but I try to study things of this world. I don't want to spoil it for those who haven't seen it, especially if they are truly into deities like I am. I hope to see a second installment with the same characters and a darker plot.

This was a somewhat twisted love story. Or maybe it was a story about mental illness. I thought it was a good story. It kept my interest. And I really wanted to see where the story would go although it was somewhat predictable and you pretty much knew something terrible would happen, but still I enjoyed the execution and journey getting there. I thought the story was pretty original or at least a new twist on the genre.

Sylvia (Zainab Balogun) is Richard's (Chris Attoh) dream girl. Literally. He talks to her as a real person while he sleeps. When he meets a "real" woman, his dream girl gets more than just jealous. The film is an interesting concept, it just had a boring execution. Guide: No swearing, sex, or nudity.
