The Woman King Movie Story:
In this movie, you will get to see the 18th century in which there is an African kingdom Dahomey. This kingdom is protected by a group of female warriors and the leader of this group is General Nanisca. In this movie, these women have been shown as true warriors and they face any problems boldly. And the same danger is about to come in Dahomey that the news spreads, I will not spoil this movie for you by telling you what is the danger. So these women warriors prepare to save Africa and Dahomey from this menace. Now what these warriors do, you will see in the movie.......
French Dahomey:
Its administration remained over the area from 1900 until 1960 when the country took independence and took the name Republic of Dahomey. In 1975, the name of the country Dahomey was changed from the Republic of Dahomey to Benin
Now You Know How This Movie Is:
This movie is based on a real event. This means whatever we will be shown in this movie, everything has already happened. This movie is very powerful, impressive, engaging, entertaining, historical, and the most impressive drama. If you do not like history, then this movie can be a bit boring. And if you like watching historical drama but you don't know the history of the African continent and African people then believe me this is surprising for you.
You will be very surprised to know how African tribes used to enslave their people and sell them to the British. Some so many people once sold they never came back.
And the British also used to buy them for their work like January by paying them some money and used to take them as slaves. At the same time, women worriers of a kindom Dahomey started a war against it and then what kind of difficulties they had to face there.
In this movie, you will see many small twists and actions between characters' lives. The character work of this film is amazing which has developed a lot of interest in it. Some characters and the relationship between them is dynamic and the conversations and interactions between them are amazing you must like them. Amidst all this, you will have built an emotional attachment with the characters of this movie.
The performance of the actors as their characters is one aspect that I really liked in this movie. The performance of the actors in this movie is really amazing and unbelievable. The music and production quality of the movie is really amazing, and the visuals of the movie are looking very beautiful on the screen. African settings have been well incorporated into this movie. The special thing about this movie is that the African culture has been beautifully represented in this movie. When you see the unique culture and rituals of Africa, you will start getting interested in the culture of Africa.
Weak points of the woman king:
Now so much is going well in the movie, a romantic scene has been added to it, which was probably not needed in this movie because its theme is based on the Warriors of Dahomey.
In this, the past story of the characters was not defined properly such as the character of Nanisca, in the movie, its characters needed to be told in more detail, it seems to me.
My Opinion:
It should have been filled with action as a worrier theme, which was not in this movie.
Despite all these things, it is a well-written, well-executed movie. That's why I would rate it 8/10. And I will also suggest to you that if you like to watch a historical action drama then you must watch it believe me you will enjoy it Otherwise you skip it. You can also watch this movie with family because you will not get to see any sex scenes in this movie. Yes, in this one scene you will get to see nudity but you ignore it.
