  I guess this is a deliberate strategy by these movie makers to cheat us out of our money. I have had the same experience.

  So it is not only me who think Kwadwo Nkansah is a bad Actor and not funny. The only thing funny about him is how ugly he is.

  Not just you maame. And just like sarpong said, Agya koo and even akrobeto are far better than him. they're matured, intelligent, don't try to be funny in every scene, i mean the list goes on. The least said about kwaku manu the better. It is sad these directors have all jumped on the bandwagon, casting these two idiots in every movie.

  Now you cannot pick any Twi movie without lil wayne in it. He needs to cut out the foolishness most of them beyond reality and not even funny. Most of the movies he acts in don't even make sense.

  OKATAKYIE SARPONG, little did I know you're such a talented film critic by showing your artistic prowess here. I do watch Ghanaian movies from time to time. I've found most the movies to be dreadful and pretty boring, with terrible dialogue, over-acting, and poor digital quality.
  
  I think the main problem with Kumawood's culture-based movies is that they can't strike a good balance between traditions of Akan culture and creating entertaining fun of modern kind.

  Esi, they prolong scenes to squeeze more minutes to make two part movies four part movies. On a second thought, why do they make the movies in parts? Movies made in America are not divided into parts. This is a ploy to cheat ...

  Esi, they prolong scenes to squeeze more minutes to make two part movies four part movies. On a second thought, why do they make the movies in parts? Movies made in America are not divided into parts. This is a ploy to cheat consumers. Instead of making a one part movie and selling them for maybe $5, they divide it into parts to sell them at $10. Very soon some of us will stop buying their predictable and badly made movies.

  Hello, Barimah Sarpong, thanks for exposing this about the Ghanaian Movies. I hope it is not a deliberate ploy to cheat the consumers. If it is deliberate, the Movie Industry must move quickly to intervene or it could hurt the Industry.
  
  However, on a second thought, why couldn't it be intentional? That is Ghana for you, folks! That is only how far corruption can reach! The urge to con others seems to be a national epidemic. If reputable businesses would regard such a behavior appropriate, how could we expect them to help the society fight corruption in the Government?
  
  The National Revenue Authority and the Trade Ministry must take the matter up and deal with the culprits appropriately and stringently.
  
  Oh, Ghana! Everywhere Amma Ghana and Kofi Ghana turn, they get slammed with corruption, yet they do not fight the vice because they look forward to their turn to '419' the next person that crosses their paths.
  
  We need to change fast.
  
  Long Live Ghana!!!

  I prefer to watch Nigerian movies. Why? Most of the Kumawood movies are mostly about witches and wizards. Most of their movies has poor picture background, even location of their movie shoots are unpresentable. Dirty and filty places. they should wake up to the challenge if the want to compete in the world.

  You are right, I don`t buy those movies anymore. Agya Koo and and those you named are better. We are tired of one-way story movies, witchcraft, sikaduro, blood-gods,etc.
