The king decides, in secret, that the first to marry will be the next king after him. Somehow, the queens find out and both want their sons to marry first. Both sons run into Jackie Appiah's character coincidentally and but are enthralled by her. They'll do anything to have her and this begins to cause trouble between them. Until Jackie Appiah leaves town and whoever finds her first gets her hand in marriage. Who will find her? Who will marry Jackie Appiah in the end?

Introduction: How do you spell, Honor? Do you spell it Honour or do you spell it Honor? All these British and American spellings of things always confuse me. Whatever, the spelling though, on to the review...

-Story: [3 out of 5] Yes! I liked the story of this movie.

 

-Originality: [1 out of 5] This will not be the first Royalty movie out of Africa. In fact, neither is it the first movie where both princes are born under such circumstances, Emeka Enyiocha and I think Emeka Ike already did that movie. It’s not the first time princes are fighting for a girl and *SPOILER* it’s not the first twin movie. Regardless, it’s still original in it’s own sense.

 

-Predictability: [3 out of 5] The predictability of this movie honestly depends on when you started predicting.

 

-Directing/Editing: [2 out of 5] No major faults. except I felt like the movie was overly prolonged. 4 hours really? It could have been much shorter how ever Jackie Appiah’s accent definitely makes up for it. All the fighting and what not was overdone. Too much time was wasted on it.

 

-Acting quality: [3 out of 5] Ali Nuhu was definitely not doing it for me in this movie. If I was to describe his acting in one word, it would be “awkward”. All the scenes that were actually supposed to be serious had me ROFLMAO. He shouldn’t have been juxtaposed with Mike. My opinion about Biola’s acting remains the same. Jackie’s acting was breathtaking in this movie especially with her Jamaican accent and what not, highly amusing accent, “Maahn are you with meh?”

 

-Setting and Costume: [2 out of 5] I half expected to see Chidi in his signature Red suit in this movie, however, he disappointed me in a good way though because I preferred his traditional outfit. However, Jackie did all the disappointing for me as regards costume with her matching flowered print top and shorts in the first few scenes. Finally, am I the only one who thinks a lime green house is an awkward color for a house?


-Video and Audio Quality [3 out of 5] 2009 movie so the video fits the year.

 

-Soundtrack [2 out of 5] The sound score is not incorporated properly into the movie

Battle of Honor, 10.0 out of 10 based on 1 rating
