The casting of Oversabi Aunty alone fills cinemas. Toyin Abraham, Funke Akindele, Bimbo Ademoye and Bisola Aiyeola in a single comedy is a commercial calculation so obvious it barely needs defending. Toyin Abraham plays the interfering aunt whose opinions about everyone else’s life become the source of cascading comedy.

Funke Akindele and Toyin Abraham sharing scenes generates a particular electricity. Bisola Aiyeola brings comedic precision that makes you wish the screenplay gave her more to do. December cinema audiences loved it. Critical scrutiny was never the point.

Verdict: Comfort viewing executed with charm. Exactly what keeps Nollywood cinemas full in December.
