A let down
Big Love
This romcom sees a single mother as she tries to overcome her fears of accommodating new love into her life. The leads were university acquaintances reconnecting and falling in love at a graduate training camp.
A lot of expectations were set up for Big Love as it reunited its leads (Bimbo Ademoye and Timini Egbuson) after the success of Breaded Life, seeing how this was also directed by Biodun Stephen (the director of Breaded Life), the bar was raised even higher. But with all of these going for Big Love, it doesn't deliver up to expectations, the sweet charm that Breaded Life had is missing here. Much of this can be attributed to the dynamic between the leads, the loving is mostly one-sided, and even when reciprocation is attempted it feels contrived.
The chemistry between the leads is there, but nothing special is birthed. The acting is good but not memorable, but the duo of Jaiye Kuti and Shaffy Bello are a delight.
Big Love could have been a worthy predecessor but the screenplay falls short.
4-4.5/10.
