It's Official

Majid Michel is my favorite [young] African actor.





Sorry, Naija folks! The Ghanaian one stole my heart. Is anyone as crazy for Majid as I am? Well, it's his acting that I am really crazy about. And no, seeing his bare bum in his latest movie, Heart of Men has absolutely nothing to do with my decision.

About Heart of Men ... have you seen it? Compared to your typical African movies, this one is good. I mean, it has a good plot with twists and turns. This movie has earned the right to say it's full of suspense. You know how every Nigerian movie - especially the stupid ones - always say they are full of suspense and intrigue. :::HISSSSS:::

That said, the movie could have been better. The plot, that is. The way it ended left me wondering some things, and even before it ended, I felt one or two things could have been done differently. I do have to commend them on the whole reminiscing thing. You know how Nigerian movies reminisce. Usually, the camera zooms into the sweaty face of the character, and then they replay the entire scene of whatever the character is remembering - which is usually like all of part 1! But that didn't happen in this movie. Nope. Enough about Heart of Men. This is about Majid ...

Good guy or bad guy, nice or mean, sensitive or insensitive, romantic or thoughtless .... he really gets into his character. I'll watch any movie, if Majid is in it. I'll watch a stupid movie to the end, if Majid is in it. Do you know how many smacks I could have given his bare bum in Heart of Men? ::Clearing throat:: It won't, of course, feel as good as smacking Mr. Shoe's bum. Hehehe. That was one heck of a smackable bum. [Hopefully, my mom will not read this]. Oh, but back to Majid ... did I forget to mention that Heart of Men has a lot of sex scenes? Oh, boy! Chics with no shirts on, Majid with no pants on .... mm mm mm!!! I should clarify that the part with shirtless chics totally didn't go anything for me... although I got to admire their bras - before they came off. Wonder where they got them. Oh, whatever. They'll be too small for me anyway.

Now, does anyone know where or how I can get Majid's number??? I just want to say hi, that's all.

hope Mr shoes aint reading this
ah Vera!!!

Azazel said...

Lol hmm i just came from "confused teenager's blog" and she lambasted this movie thoroughly..
In her words or in three words she said

"three words:do not watch."

So now u see my dilemma Vera? A humble blogger is torn between which "blogsville celebrity" to believe. LWKMD

Lmao hahaha am so funny it's not even funny..
Yall who read my blog post http://eche-crates.blogspot.com/2009/10/why-do-good-bloggers-leave-blogsville.html,
will get this joke. And if u don't find it funny, then something is seriously wrong with the funny part of your brain. Like forreal. Haha damn am funny. But vera, nice post though. I definitely will check out the movie.

I'll have to agree with the previous comments, the story of the movie might have been good but the execution was horrible. I think they just littered it with sex scenes to make people want to buy it. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone except you have some time to waste. But hey, one man's meat another man's poison, though I don't know anyone who actually watched it and liked it. Nice blog

bob-ij said...

Vera! Where did you atch it? Been looking for it! And yeah his acting makes me laugh, the whole sexy eyes just squeezes out all my giggles! hahahahahaha. But he's a pretty good actor....lol
x!

Ms.O said...

Majid is overrated! Chris Attoh is the truth!! google him!

Anonymous said...

did we really watch the same movie?like seriously?that movie suckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.with unnecessary nudity and the plot was just all over the place.i def wouldnt recommend it to anyone.

Anonymous said...

i didnt like it, the worse ghanian movie i have seen so far but he is kinda cute

joicee said...

Is this not the same movie that caused a helluva controverasy at Sugabelly´s blog...?

I have seen him in another movie with Genevieve (cant remember the name now).I agree , he is good actor.

Myne said...

It's nice that different ppl have various opinions on the movie. I should watch it I guess.

But majid is NOTTTT a good actor! LOL

Nice Anon said...

Young actor? How old is he? Where did you watch the movie?

Vera Ezimora said...

Chinny: Back off!!! If you don't want me to tell the blogger people to start automatically deleting any comment from Chinny, just back off! lol. Respect yourself ooo. And you even had the audacity to tel me to share his number. You no dey fear ehn? LOL.

TayneMent: Watch it and decide, my dear. I didn't think it sucked. I mean, it's not the best, but comparing it to your typical African movie, I did not think it sucked.

NaijaPrincess234: I watched both movies. I loved Guilty Pleasures. Good stuff. It was nice seeing Majid & Ramsey acting as brothers. At least, they're both light skinned. Usually, they'll pick someone who is as dark as night to play the brother. LOL.

BBB: But I said his butt is better than Majid's now! LOL.

Azazel: Believe me, believe me!!!! Would I lie to you? Hehehehe. Okay, seriously, the best thing is to watch the movie and decide for yourself. Forget about what me or the other blogger has said about it, and just watch it for yourself.

Nneka: There's only one reason why a movie will be littered with sex scenes: sex sells. Do you know how many people bought that movie because of the poster??? Hehehe. It worked. The plot was good; the acting was good. I just think they left me asking questions at the end, and certain things could have been done differently.

Bob IJ: My dear, I watched it rigggght here in the comfort of my bedroom. I'm pretty current with these movies, so I usually watch it when it comes out - unless I have no interest in watching it.

Ms. O: If I have to google him, he ain't the truth. But I know who he is - and that's because I watch a lotta movies, and I happen to remember a lot...for some reason. Chris Attoh is good, but --- Majid is still my number one.

Leggy: Here's the thing about nudity - there isn't any time in a movie that it is necessary [unless you're watching porn]. Can you think of any movie [African or otherwise] where nudity was "necessary?" On that note, I didn't think the plot was all over the place; I just thought they needed to explain it some more. Some things were left unexplained.

Anonymous: Ah! If you say this is the worst Ghanaian movie you've seen so far, that means you've not watched a lot of them.

Joicee: What sucks is that I don't have Suga belly's link anymore. Ever since I lost my blog roll, it's been pretty darn hard putting it back together. Anyway, he's definitely a good actor.

Myne Whitman: You don't think he's a good actor, really? Oh, wow. Well, I think he's a fantabulous actor. You should definitely watch it and come up with your own conclusion.

Nice Anon: Yeah, young actor. He's 29. I had to put 'young' in there because I still love my Pete Edochie. I watched the movie at home. Did you mean to ask another question? LOL. Where else pesin dey watch African movie? They no dey show for theater now!

Giagerry said...

He is sooo my best oo.....heart of men nd guilty pleasures=AWESOME!!

NoLimit said...

Errr Verstic...I'm kinda lost here...dude is alright but you make it sound like he's the next Denzel Washington or Boris Kodjoe in the history of African movie...before his fans wring my neck pls oh...I'm not hating na my opinion be that!!!

The plot of this movie is too dramatic and unorganized for my likening. My problem with the film was the story line not the sex scenes. Personally, I don't understand all the ruckus about the sex scenes. It's a movie meant for entertainment purposes. If you don't find it entertaining, dont watch it! Funny enough, I have never seen an African movie brutally criticized for having too much violence- even movies where everyone stabs each other, heads are being cut off and etc...

Toyin said...

With Majid being my future hubby and all, I didn't appreciate him showing his butt to the lustful eyes of other women. That butt is for only me to see...lol

Karen said...

Vera, I am glad someone has stood up for the movie. I watched it last night and to my surprise it is very good. Majid is a great actor. I have all of his movies and will continue to buy them no matter what. Vera if you love Majid like I do please join our Majid Michel fanpage. I think you will like it.
