King of Boys: The Return of the King - Movie Review

King of Boys: The Return of the King is a continuation of the 2018 Nigerian Blockbuster King of Boys

Kings of Boys: The Return of the king is a movie made by Kemi Adetiba. The casting was inch perfect. Sola Sobowale outdone herself. Illbliss, Ade Tiger, Jumoke Randle etc all were portrayed with fantastic performances. I loved they character development the movie gave Jumoke Randle. Her influence and her motivation. The portrayal of Eniola Salami's grief was thoughtful, her search for redemption and her reluctance to return to her old self. 

Dapo Banjo! Dude was nuts. But I understand such characters. And I think Aisha too was amazing. 

The dialogues in KOB were epic. Eniola vs Gobir, Dapo vs Aisha. Dapo vs his Boss and etc.

KOB is literally the best crime thriller to come out of Nollywood.

A couple of things I noted as cons

1) It’s a slow burn. Things didn’t start getting tense until the 3/4 episode.
2) Several scenes where TV just came on abruptly so that news can be heard. LOL
3) No Running Mate? Haba, Her running mate wasn’t even there on the election night 
4) At some point the dialogue with Eniola Salami and her alter ego became intrusive and unnecessary.
