“Edge of fear”
I was really excited and expectant that I was in for a very serious action movie, but I guess the pace was way too slow for me. The movie was about a group of terribly bad guy who destroyed an entire bus of prison inmates just to free one of their leaders, along their quest for a new van, entire into a beautiful home with a couple and a friend. What started as a simple quest for a phone turns out completely bloody and Patrick had to do all he could to save his pretty wife from these evil men. The 1h 31 min action, crime, thriller movie was directed by Bobby Roth.

“Swallow”
Swallow is a Nigerian movie released on Netflix this year, produced by Kunle Afolayan the 2hr 8mins movie took us back to the 80”s, they told a story of Tolani and her friend. After being harassed at work and victimized Tolani meets a new boyfriend of her who initiates her to the get rich quick syndrome, little did she know that it was going to be exporting drugs, when she found out she felt there was no harm in trying after all she was already suffering and anything to leave this miserable was definitely a better option. You need to see how they prepared and how it all went down on the very first trip. A very touching story with loads of lessons young people could learn from, there are no shortcuts to wealth, only hard work and diligence.
