The Set Up
The movie revolves around the life of a young woman who drops her childhood innocence as she delves into a criminal life for survival. She gets more than she bargained for and is drawn into a web of deceit when she is hired by a conniving pair looking to get revenge on a family they both were part of.

It seemed the movie was filled with so much suspense, twists and turn to the point that it lost its logic. I mean, how possible was it that some scenes were not taught through before executing? Why would the US Government want to arrest a drug smuggler who smuggles drugs from Nigeria to Malaysia? How come the daughter who accidentally kills her sister, knows the way to the banished mistress’ home? What is with the dumb explanation Chike gave for them not getting caught?
The lines in the movie were quite flat, the dialogues were not befitting of the action, “madame wants to see you…wear your glasses”,(what?) There is more to a movie than good pictures and sounds as delivered by the movie, there are other elements involved as well. What did the girls train for if they weren’t going to use any of it in the movie? It was like watching Tom Cruise scale a tall building and endure car chases while the entire movie is just dialogue. Talk about the height of redundancy. I mean, these girls didn’t even run!
There was also the repeated shot of the exterior of the Cubans outlet used, showing the same characters going into the club with the same outfit.
