NaijaSabi Score: 80/100
Box Office / Awards: N500M+. 9 AMVCA 2026 nominations

Gingerrr knows exactly what it is and commits to that identity completely. Tied with The Herd for the most AMVCA nominations at nine, it crossed N500 million at the box office and was still playing to packed cinemas weeks later.

A group of sharp Lagos women discover a business associate has been defrauding them and decide to take exactly what they are owed, with interest. Sola Sobowale, nominated in both lead and supporting categories at AMVCA, brings the kind of lived authority that makes every scene she enters instantly more interesting. Director Yemi Morafa controls tone with impressive confidence.

Verdict: Pure entertainment executed at the highest level. The Nollywood heist comedy we didn’t know we needed.
