-Story: [0 out of 5] There is such a thing as too much drama… All this! Is doing too much. Seriously? What was the logic behind this movie… Nadia is Beyonce, Omotola is Rihanna (in which world? lol), and Jim Iyke is Jay-Z (seeing as his character’s name is Jay Jay???). It’s about time that we abandoned this ridiculous ‘sleek ladies’ type storyline. Even in 2012, we are still doing this nonsense with rubbish movies like Tonto Dikeh and Oge Okoye’s “Miss Fashion”. And it made no sense to me why Nadia Buari’s character, Bernice, was going through all this stress to get a recording contract when her boyfriend, Jay, was supposedly a top music producer. And in which country do you seize someone’s car for opening the door and tripping you when you were jogging… honestly? This is the kind of thing that one presses ‘eject’ for.

-Originality: [0 out of 5] Like I mentioned earlier, this is another ‘sleek ladies’ type movie… the struggle between females has been over explored and needs to die already.

-Predictability: [0 out of 5] Definitely

-Directing/Editing: [0 out of 5] This is definitely the embodiment of stupidity… and I hear it has a 6th part? What are you guys acting for six parts? Seriously…??? The directing lapses in that Omotola could neither sing the songs correctly or dance appropriately.

-Acting quality: [2 out of 5] I think my biggest source of shock is that Omotola actually agreed to do this crapology. The actors can act… that was not in question (although some of the extras were torturous). The question is why they accepted this script (I’ll tell you why… $$$)

-Setting: [2 out of 5] The set for the competition was not as grand as it should have been.

-Costume/Make-Up: [2 out of 5] Ok

-Props and Graphics: [2 out of 5] Again with the set for the competition… the crowd… the general mood was not as grand as it was supposed to be

-Video Quality: [3 out of 5] Ok

-Audio Quality [1 out of 5] Many lapses

-Soundtrack: [2 out of 5] Ok

-Musical Score: [3 out of 5] Not bad
