Move Like A Boss aims to combine comedy with corporate drama but ultimately struggles to deliver a cohesive and impactful experience. With an intriguing premise centered on family loyalty, betrayal, and corporate power plays, the film offers glimpses of brilliance but is held back by an unrealistic plot and uneven execution.
The story follows Jokotola “Joko” Adeyanju, who steps into her father’s shoes—literally and metaphorically—to protect his company from an internal coup. While her bold disguise and clever maneuvers add intrigue, the execution falters. The prosthetic disguise is comically unconvincing, making it hard to take the high-stakes plot seriously.
Despite standout performances from seasoned actors like Nancy Isime and Yemi Solade, character development leaves much to be desired. Joko’s journey, while central, feels underexplored, and supporting characters lack the depth and motivations needed to engage viewers fully. Themes of female empowerment and corporate ethics are introduced but remain surface-level, failing to resonate or add meaningful weight to the narrative.
The film’s comedic elements, courtesy of characters like Chef Dot and Colorado, offer some laughs but struggle to balance the more dramatic moments. Pacing issues further hamper the experience, with some scenes dragging and others skipping over critical developments.
While Move Like A Boss brings humor and a unique concept to the table, its lack of believability and inconsistent storytelling ultimately hold it back. It’s light entertainment at best—worth a watch for the cast’s charm, but unlikely to leave a lasting impression.
