Another basic Movie
larazona30 March 2019
This movie had too many high rated actors. None of them stood out. Everything just felt rushed and forced

Bad parenting
kosmasp23 July 2019
Leading by example and all that. I do understand if some viewers are way more annoyed than others. It really is in the eye of the beholder and while the movie tries to tell a morality tale (sort of), it really misses to connect most of the time with the people watching (supposed to be entertained and you know learn something for life, I reckon?).

It's not the worst movie I've seen by a longshot. But it is sure to leave most unengaged (the ending did not make it any better either). Liked the music in the end credits, but even that might split some people

Poor acting with shallow characters
films-9833214 April 2019
I really couldn't wait to watch this movie only to get disappointed! The whole thing felt forced and rushed. Porous acting with shallow characters. I was cringing throughout because it was simply not funny.

Depressingly Boring and Pointless
Thugs_cry29 April 2019
There was a time Nigerian movies did engage you. Now its getting worse. Its like someone just comes up with a different story and tries to force it on everyone by using top actors. At the end, the movie fails in every way. The director needs a reorientation.

MESSED UP MOVIE
truwavesreal22 April 2019
No lesson learnt. Too many star actors. Highly disappointed in all of them. The big actors all of a sudden sound foolish in one movie. Those that are not comedians decided to try out with this movie. Unserious roles. Please we don't want part2. Its enough here

OVER-RATED, NO DIRECTION!!
tyzionchyld11 August 2019
To be honest, Chief Daddy was really disappointing. Star studded but yet not much you can lay hold of. I think the directing should bear most of the fault from this train wreck alongside the incoherent writing. The cinematography also, as there were moments when an unneccessary camera shake dented the believability of the scene even more than the forced humour. On the good side, Falz did quite well with the role he was given. The end credits song was quite hilarious. To the producers, please this should mark the end of this destinationless franchise.

In death we deal.
dannybaker-0318127 March 2019
Chief Beecroft is an industrial billionaire who dies in his dining room at his table. Days after, his lawyer shows up with an invitation to his family to read his codicil before his will. The family includes his daughters from his first wife, his second wife and their son.....and his three mistresses WITH there children, along with a son NO ONE knew about. The codicil reads that EVERYONE should stay in the family home and prepare his funeral. If they get to fighting and leave, NOTHING will be left to anyone. This film was funny, and it would probably been funnier to me if the accents weren't so thick while talking so fast. I kept trying to decipher so many times and just let it go and let the film move on. Still, it was a pleasant flick and I totally enjoyed it.

Missed opportunity

Warning: Spoilers
Too much shouting, stupid characters, illogical decisions by characters, etc. Twenty minutes in and you still don't have a clue what the movie is supposed to be about. Waste of talent and money .

Trash.
TrinidadJanes26 December 2019
Pointless movie with mostly terrible acting and very shallow characters. It doesn't help either that it was basically full of tribalist jabs at Igbo from Yoruba people.

A dumb story
youngvicky24 August 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I just finished watching the movie. The question now is who will refund me the money and time I spent in watching this movie. The story was dumb. Did they think we won't notice the car change?

The movie was boring too.

Loved this Movie
olubunmiakindebe2 May 2019
I was really surprised to read negative reviews for this movie. Do we truly know what a good movie is? This movie was really good, very enjoyable. Well developed characters, believable and relatable story line. And the quality, fantastic. Well done guys. Loved it even more than wedding party 1 and 2. I am not disappointed at all.

Hilarious & light hearted
mumbi2541 January 2022
Chief Daddy is the type of movie you can watch over and over. The actors are fantastic, and the movie overall is a not-so-serious narration with valuable teachable moments. Sure there are a few plot holes that could have been handled better, but overall I would recommend.
