Anchor Baby

It's a shame that we dodged Anchor Baby for many months as the trailer didn't seem engaging🙈

Speechless...It was honestly traumatizing to think that such an incident did happen in real life...

DELICIOUS

---Right from the beginning, we were presented with the definition of the term 'Anchor Baby', this was a welcoming element to introduce us to the story.

Anchor Baby was a story like no other that went beyond immigration problems to tap an extremely cruel phenomenon

-As diasporans, we sympathized with the couple struggling for a better life. We greatly appreciated the quotes at the end that showed the inadequacies of the US immigration system

-This film needed to be told to illustrate the insecurities and restrictions people without 'papers' live with in foreign lands

BLAND

-Anchor Baby would have had a much stronger impact if and only if the acting were refined.

We were waiting for Omoni Oboli to shed abundant tears and pour out her agony, yet, we didn't get much.

John the lawyer and Sam Sarpong appeared like they were still rehearsing the lines in their mind

-Dialogues could have been deeply crafted to send a strong message and address the immigration system in a thought-provoking way

-Anchor Baby concentrated the majority of its scenes on Omoni which became a bit monotonous without a solid parallel narrative

-Was that a baby doll we saw in the car seat after Omoni delivered???😖😖😖😖

-Not seeing shots of Paul for the rest of the movie tremendously limited the realism of the storyline...
