Isoken
Isoken is an interesting movie you should put on your must watch list. Everyone in the Osayande family worries about Isoken. Although she has what appears to have a perfect life – beautiful, successful and surrounded by great family and friends – Isoken is still unmarried at 34 which, in a culture obsessed with married, is serious cause for 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. Osaze is handsome, successful and from a good family, making him perfect Nigerian husband material. But in an unexpected turn of events, Isoken meets Kevin who she finds herself falling in love with and he just might be what she truly wants in a partner. The only problem is, not only is he not an Edo man, he is Oyinbo (Caucasian). Isoken is a romantic dramedy that explores cultural expectations, racial stereotypes and the bonds that unite families in touching, dramatic and comedic ways.
Cars 3
Lightning McQueen sets out to prove to a new generation of racers that he’s still the best race car in the world.
Behind the wheels
The story revolves around the life of Elijah, a young local boy who lost his father at a tender age. Hardship and lack of opportunities pushed him to learn the auto-mechanic trade. However, being unable to raise money for work tools, his desire to help his mother and siblings pushes him into being a motor boy and consequently a tanker driver and here the story begins. The story takes us through his eventful life as a tanker driver, which makes him cross path with Jimoh the ‘one day, one trouble’ struggling tanker driver and Abdullahi a highly irresponsible and reckless taker driver. The nerve wrecking occupational hazards and hurdles encountered by these tanker drivers result in serious consequences.
Rough night
This is another great movie. Five best friends from college (played by Scarlett Johansson, Kate McKinnon, Jillian Bell, Ilana Glazer, and Zoë Kravitz) reunite 10 years later for a wild bachelorette weekend in Miami. Their hard partying takes a hilariously dark turn when they accidentally kill a male stripper. Amidst the craziness of trying to cover it up, they’re ultimately brought closer together when it matters most.
The journey
The Journey is the account of how two men from opposite sides of the political spectrum came together to change the course of history. In 2006, amidst the ongoing, decades-long conflict in Northern Ireland, representatives from the two warring factions meet for negotiations. In one corner is Ian Paisley (Timothy Spall), the deeply conservative British loyalist; in the other is Martin McGuinness (Colm Meaney), a former Irish Republican Army leader who has devoted his life to the cause of Irish reunification. Opposites in every way, the two men at first seem to have little chance of ever finding common ground. But over the course of an impromptu, detour-filled car ride through the Scottish countryside, each begins to see the other less as an enemy, and more as an individual—a breakthrough that promises to at last bring peace to the troubled region.
