LiftHUB Movie Night Bring Us Home To Nollywood.

So my long Awaited and Anticipated week is finally here and i am excited as well as tensed because of how skeptical you guys are to this week's category. The truth is many Nollywood Movies can never do right in the Eyes of many Nigerians especially those from our age and level of exposure. it has over the years been giving a reputation for being unbearable and insulting to the intelligence of all those who sit through it.

However, i am part of this industry and with it is all my hope for glory tied and locked to so when ever i hear people say Nollywood isn't good enough, it breaks my heart because i know the pains and the struggles of film makers who are truly worth their salt, who make amazing films that the world should celebrate but would not accept because of a generalized Nitch created by us.

I can boldly tell you that they are so many worthy Nollywood film that would blow your minds and change you perception but they are actually not available because of the fear of piracy or the film maker's need to hold on to it for as long as possible to make more money from it. so for this week, i have carefully selected some of the best Nollywood films available with of course Serious Accolades.
