The comic drama follows Boma (Zainab Balogun), a wealthy young lawyer who is assigned to a “charge and bail” legal business during her year of national service. As she tries to fit in with the people, the courts, and life, she gets into trouble.
Glamsquad Magazine will say Charge and bail is a banger!
The movie will make you smile from start to finish.
Everything about this film is wonderful, from the production to the storytelling. In fact, the acting is so natural that it’s befuddling.
Even the extras are deserving of Oscar nominations. Well maybe we’re exaggerating…
There’s a burst of energy here. It will give you the impression that you are in court. So disregard what the trailer says: ‘Charge & Bail’ isn’t your typical comedy.
