Some answers to your questions 1) Officer Bade's blood cooler was checked but he hid the gun below the blood bags. There is a white base under the blood bags. The gun was hidden below it, so it would have been missed inspite of a search. 2) The kidnappers took an additional hostage because they couldn't approach the gate without risking being shot. The hostage, a delivery man, was needed to complete some paperwork, specifically signing a confirmation of delivery. The kidnappers may have also believed that the delivery man had special knowledge about the blood they were holding, as they didn't understand its significance themselves. What's more concerning is that the kidnappers didn't seem worried that the delivery man wasn't showing fear, which suggests that they may have had military training or experience." 3) The delivery man/ Officer Bade was initially hesitant to kill the Uzor because Segun Arinze, a relative of the family, had intervened, instructing them to bring Uzor alive. This was why they didn't want to take him down immediately. However, in the end, they were forced to shoot him in self-defense. Remember when the brother went to him to rescue Uzor. Segun Arinze told him why did he come long ago. That they are family. 4) Intramuscular injection takes some little time before its effect is felt. That was the reason why when Dr Amara gave the drug he was able to stagger. Maybe the police didn't want to get close so as to protect themselves. They would prefer him to be in a place where he will be greatly outnumbered, hence the location he died. Also for additional scenery for the movie 5) Uzor knows about the hospital bcos he said he checked online and the hospital and the onwer Dr Amara is said to be the best Surgeon/ hospital. I think Dr Amara's boldness stems from the knowledge that they will likely not kill her since she is the one that will perform the surgery and they were desperate to have it done in her hospital.
I think Dr Amara’s character is silly because she should have shown fear, other people’s lives were at risk , including that of a lil boy, she showed no emphathy whatsoever and did nothing while Uzor attempted to shoot the lil boy until Uzor eventually shot another innocent victim on the bed. I don’t think the cooler was searched but yeah I agree even if it was I guess they won’t want the guns to be found to favor the plot of the movie so that’s fine Uzor had time to google the best hospital in the face of rushing his brother that was shot to the hospital lmao 🤣 that one is a long shot abeg, that particular plot line is just ridiculous,infact the entire plot of having someone hold hospital patients hostage just so a doctor can treat your brother is ridiculous to start with, it does not hold water, I mean you literally want doctors to perform surgery under duress lol lol, I don’t even know what the fuss was about sef , Dr Amara could have also started the surgery and let the other doctor that was beaten guide the other doctors with the woman in labor but I guess agenda must agend 😅 The most ridiculous scene of all the ridiculousness of this entire movie is that the officers had enough time , more than enough sef to subdue Uzor after he was injected , he was already weak, but no they watched him catwalk all the way down and at the first weak attempt to hold a gun then they shot him, iranu! The movie is a big joke but nice attempt , E for Effort, State of emergency , that year 2000 movie about hostages evoked more emotions in me that this weak attempt at a hostage movie that was done in 2024.
Look at the zoom on her pictures towards the end. There's a picture with Dr. Amara in military uniform. I think that explains why she was not so afraid since it seems she has a military background. Just that I don't understand why it was just flip. I thought the story would've developed more in that regard
Dr Amara is a soldier. A picture frame was shown to explain her boldness in the face of danger.i knew what they were trying to do immediately I saw that picture frame
You're a strict grader o 😂 I enjoyed seeing Imoh & Austine on screen. Interesting that they used Uzor's real name. One thing I learnt from this movie is that not everyone deserves a second chance. Some people will never change
If in the real sense of tracking, Chima was supposed to meet whoever stole the truck was he supposed to go alone? Cause he didn't know who it was, so why are you going alone?
If i was a patient that was caught in the mix, I'm NEVER coming back or referring anyone there cause tgey don't care about the lives of their patients. I hope that's not a real hospital sha😅
It's quite obvious you didn't pay enough attention while watching the movie. Most of your questions would have been needless. To answer some of your questions: 1. Why did Chima go alone to where the stolen truck was? He mentioned it to Uzor he knew Uzor was lying about the truck being stolen. He didn't trust him enough given the kind of person he already knew Uzor to be. His wife warned him against doing business with Uzor but he didn't listen giving Uzor a benefit of the doubt as blood brother that they are. 2. About searching the blood in the cooler: The situation they found themselves was not a preplanned one, things just happened fast and they were all panicking. In that state, thinking about hidden guns in a blood cooler is the least thing that'll come to their heads. Also considering these guys are a bunch of illiterates, they don't even know how blood transfusion or the hospital system works. They just believe the solution they so much desired has arrived. 3. Why were they hesitant to kill Uzor? Because the police commissioner (Segun Arinze) gave an order he wants him alive (because Uzor apparently is a family member of the commissioner). If you noticed, it didn't make sense to officer Bade when Segun Arinze said he wants them alive, that's because only Segub Arinze knew they were his relatives. 4. Why did they wait till Uzor get down before they rained fire on him? He was already weakened by the paralytic, and at no point prior to getting downstairs did he make any attempt to raise the gun. He tried to raise in gun on getting downstairs. It's a standard procedure in crime fighting, as long as the criminal doesn't raise his weapon in an attack mode, you control yourself well enough not to shoot. 5. How did Uzor know the doctor's name? He mentioned it immediately he entered the hospital that he googled and Google suggested based on multiple reviews that the hospital was the best in the area and also the chief surgeon's name. There were even more below par things that happened in the movie that I was expecting you to touch on but you didn't e.g. Uzor's constantly changing accent, the amount of time it took while the brother was losing blood, Dr. Amara abandoning an operation on the pregnant woman which she has already started, to come down to show heroism, Segun Arinze calling the brother's phone directly instead of Uzor's, etc. Nice review by the way!
Dr Amara was my problem in this movie. The fact that she had a military background doesn't justify her unnecessary boldness because it could have led to more casualties. Also, killing Uzor at the end after leaving him all these while was senseless.
Last but not the list,you didn't buttress on the fact that her blood was O negative which they showed at the end of the film which means she should have given Uzors brother blood when he needs it instead of the blood bank drama!
I liked this movie but was between various emotions. Tito did highlight some of them. I was so worried about the little boy who would have been shot because Dr Amara would not change her mind at first. They did not explain how the gun didn't work, despite Uzo trying it multiple times. Was that a divine Intervention? Also, the sergeant was on the floor wounded and the policemen who came in later were not bothered, they left him there. To die or to what exactly?
😂😂😂😂TITO....BE CALMING DOWN....THANKS FOR REVIEWING.. am agreeing with one thing, it would have given me great Joy if they had killed officer bade too sha😂😂cos personally for a suppose hero in that movie, he lacked dept ,and for Dr Amara fierceness character,there are people like that sha,met one😂......thanks for reviewing, watching on my birthday 🎉
Great review!. I love the concept but there are lots of issues in the plots. I enjoyed the cinematography sha. It is a good concept out of our regular stories. Keep it up Tito.
I won’t agree on ur review today , people had all the answer, go and watch again. I was expecting you to talk abt the officer killing the two criminal, it was just unnecessary and you should have spoken abt Uzor changing accent multiple times. The film is a 90 over 100
Lol, "i would have respected the character if he died from being shot." lol . This guy i will bring camera and budget make you shoot film make we watch. You no want hero to survive oya , run ya own, lol
😂😂😂😂 to be sincere I didn't really like your review it wasn't okay for me. We see this kind of movie in Nigeria once in a blue moon which makes it more good if we appreciate it and not condemn it the way u did and also I will have enjoyed this review if u didn't compare it with other country movie

Becky. - these are excellent observations.
My partner and I picked these too.
Also I think Dr Amara was composed because she has a military background, the camera showed her pictures on her office table.
I hope he sees the answers to his question.
Look at the zoom on her pictures towards the end. There's a picture with Dr. Amara in military uniform. I think that explains why she was not so afraid since it seems she has a military background.

Tito , i think you should write a script and give it to a studio so they can make it into a film , i think you have great ideas to make a great movie

Nice review by the way!
I love this reply. Thanks Joseph
Agreed, so many questions in a promising movie. You nailed it cuz I had similar issues while watching
Dr Amara was my problem in this movie. The fact that she had a military background doesn't justify her unnecessary boldness because it could have led to more casualties. Also, killing Uzor at the end after leaving him all these while was senseless.
He said he googled it . He googled the hospital so definitely he would know about her and everything concerning the hospital.
On what streaming channels is this movie showing on?
It’s on Prime video.
Brian Okoye is dope. Met him and he's such a cool dude. I'm glad he's getting his props. Dude is an incredible actor.
He tried. I’ll look out for more of his work.
Last but not the list,you didn't buttress on the fact that her blood was O negative which they showed at the end of the film which means she should have given Uzors brother blood when he needs it instead of the blood bank drama!
Yet to see the movie but i totally believe this review. It was funny how u said the writing was problematic 😂😂😂
I just finished cooking egusi soup and eba , bring your plate
I liked this movie but was between various emotions. Tito did highlight some of them.
I was so worried about the little boy who would have been shot because Dr Amara would not change her mind at first.
They did not explain how the gun didn't work, despite Uzo trying it multiple times.

well summarized
The doctor had military training

The nicest parts of the movie were the flashback scenes
Great review!. I love the concept but there are lots of issues in the plots. I enjoyed the cinematography sha. It is a good concept out of our regular stories. Keep it up Tito.
Thanks Z. I really wish they went in depth with some of the key characters. All
of them were just somehow IMO.
Have you watched onye egwu by uche jombo
Onye Egwu was extremely underwhelming. My opinion though.
I won’t agree on ur review today , people had all the answer, go and watch again.
I was expecting you to talk abt the officer killing the two criminal, it was just unnecessary and you should have spoken abt Uzor changing accent multiple times.
The film is a 90 over 100
i stopped watching the movie in the 30th minute
failed one
disappointed
Lol, "i would have respected the character if he died from being shot." lol . This guy i will bring camera and budget make you shoot film make we watch. You no want hero to survive oya , run ya own, lol
