Popular talent manager and pop culture enthusiast, Mayowa Adenekan has shared his review of the remake of ‘Glamour Girls‘, the 1994 Nollywood blockbuster, premiered on Netflix on June 24.
Adenekan opines that filmmakers who remake Nollywood classics should be cautious, adding that they either get it right or ruin the affirmative recollections viewers have about the movie.
“After watching the ‘Glamour Girls’, it appears that the remake of the 1994 classic was far from the expectations of the viewers. Filmmakers who remake Nollywood classics should be careful, they can either get it right or ruin the positive recollections viewers have about the movie. For Glamours Girls the flick has more flaws than substance. It has disorganized stories that have no meeting point rather leaving the viewers confused with many unanswered questions. Another major flaw of the ‘Glamour Girls’ remake was its disjointed plot. You will understand this better after watching the film. Every scene seemed to make no sense for some odd reason, there was hardly a connecting dot between them.This movie left most of the viewers with several unanswered questions. For instance, how did Donna come to have a third hard drive? How did Emma go through a major character transformation in six months? Why did Donna seek assistance from the woman who despised her guts?”
Sharing his view on the bright side of the movie, he said: “The film used some of the best visual essentials to grace our television screens. The cinematography was exceptional, with the locations and camera movements carefully selected. The costume of the actresses was also on point. It was uniquely done to communicate the stylish lifestyles of the cast, the film idea, and concepts. It deeply tells the story”.
