I’m let down by Gentle Jack.

Soft-hearted Jack should not have gotten into such a messy situation by accepting this part. It’s really embarrassing to witness.

“Gentle Jack is a veteran in African movie space and shouldn’t have condescended so low to take such role. Quite pathetic!”

Don’t critique him; it’s such an amazing film, exactly what I’ve been longing for among @HomeOfNollywood #nollywood productions. In the old days, we had ‘Black Berry Babes’ 1-6, but Nollywood hasn’t followed up with ‘iPhone Babes’ 1-5.

What is all this nonsense? Gentle Jack, please do not burden me with such nonsense. If your aim is to make money, I will start a GoFundMe campaign for you, alright?

Wow, GentleJack on OG for sure! How come he ends up with such young little ones like these?

After reconsidering, what if they had obtained approval from verydarkman prior to producing the film? We shouldn’t assume he’s upset since he is still alive and could potentially view this and take legal action if his character is tarnished.
