Potato Potahto (2017) User Reviews

Quite slow, yet over-dramatic acting

[danbouchra · 3/10 · 28 October 2019]

Pretty corny, slow, not always good acting. The comedy elements are not that funny - the robbery scene for example was quite cringy.

The film seems to bounce between argument scenes and love scenes in quite a predictable, cliché way.

I guess for the budget it is ok, well shot, etc.

Flat and boring acting

If you're have trouble sleeping, this is the movie to help you fall asleep.

From overstretched lines, too many unnecessary scenes especially the flash backs, to actors staring blankly at each other and saying nothing for over 30 seconds, to music that do not match most of the scenes. Only Joke Silva's acting managed to saved the day.

There's no comedy in here and no romance. Do I'm shocked that this movie is called a "romantic comedy". In all, I washed 1 hour 39 mind of my time. Not impressed.

Plot? Acting? Storyline?

I'm the first one to support Nollywood movies and I'm excited to see them offered more on Netflix. However!! Netflix must be more selective with their choice of movies to offer. This movie looked good, the preview had potential. Boy was I wrong!! First off the acting made zero sense, long pauses of actors smiling and looking at each other, flash backs from the past that made no sense, the music choice was not fitting with the scene of the movie. Just bad! I fell asleep within the first 30 minutes! Whatever happened to the Nollywood movies from years past? You can find much better movies from the early 2000's on YouTube for free instead of bothering with these ridiculous, nonsense movies!! People please do better and stop wasting our time!!

Not a movie

Better watch a gif file on loop for 1 hour and 30 minutes. You'll get less bored and annoyed. Cast? I can act better than everybody in this "movie" and I'm not an actor. The director and montage? There are so many logical steps in this "movie" that it was merely impossible to watch. Too many scenes were cut out from the final version, that you had no idea what was going on. And no, this is not a romantic comedy. It is neither romantic, nor funny. Worst 90 minutes of my life ever. I recommend you to NOT watch this thing.

Enjoyed It.

Tuesday 25 February 2020. I have not watch many all African cast films. I was scrolling on my Net Flicks channel and this film caught my eyes. I am glad that I watch it. I like it from the beginning to the end and lead actress, Joselyn Dumas is very good in her role, all natural and although the other actress with the long fake hair is pretty, but Joselyn is very pretty, classy and stunning to look at. I hope to see more of her. She should be in American movies or television shows. Actress Joke Silva did a good job as the mother in-law. I would have been disappointed if the two main characters would not have gotten back together.

I don't about you all!! But this movie was so good

Not bad

[koco_bee · 8/10 · 6 June 2020]

While it's not Oscar worthy, it's a pretty good movie. Sound track is good, there's chemistry between the actors , some funny clips, some predictable clips too but then few Nigerian movie are unpredictable! It's an improvement from the usual drag that Nollywood often offers!

I loved it!

I've watched this movie on Netflix so many times and I know I'm gonna watch it again soon. If you're a hopeless romantic like myself or love happy endings and undying love, this movie is definitely for you.

I loved the actors too! They all interpreted their roles really well. OC Ukeje and Jocelyn Dumas acting was very believable. The soundtrack and video at the end by OC Ukeje got me vibing.

This movie had the perfect mix of romance and humour. Slow maybe, but definitely worth every second.
