Trained by her father, Igbinogun leads a gang of thieves robbing the rich for the poor — until she humiliates a prince so completely that the kingdom collapses into chaos she must now lead.
Kuku is a revelation in the title role, dry-witted and physically convincing. The film’s politics of wealth redistribution give the swordplay actual stakes, and the palace intrigue is executed with relish.
Verdict: The most entertaining Nollywood epic on Netflix this quarter.
