100 Word Review: When Love Happens is not your typical Nollywood romcom

Title: When Love Happens

Genre: Romantic Comedy

Director: Seyi Babatope

Year: 2014

Watching When Love Happens, you are transported to a world where Nigerian children kiss in front of their parents, a worker tells off her boss for infidelity and accent switching is the norm. Unfortunately, this world only half exists in the Nigerian reality. But since it is a romcom, we laugh along till we reach our happily ever after ending. Pretty made up faces, exotic costumes, choice locations and a cast of predominantly fresh Nollywood talent sums up the movie. More on screen chemistry, more Nigerian flavour and less acting to the cameras would have made a world of difference.
