While Blood Sisters is a bit melodramatic, it has the potential to be an interesting thriller that goes into the evolution of gender roles vs tradition in Nigeria.
Joel Keller on Decider Blood Sisters is all of ‘new nollywood’ standards while being a deviation from the norm... one thing the four hour limited series does well is keep eyes glued to the screen. The extraneous is shaved off here and every scene that is intended to thrill does indeed thrill and the audience is kept invested in every step of the journey for Sarah and Kemi.
Nollywood Reinvented on Nollywood Reinvented Criticisms against Nollywood have often zeroed in on the quality of its storytelling — its attention to detail and overall coherence and smarts. Blood Sisters is, mostly, free of such impediments. It’s a well-told story, skillfully marshalled by Kenneth Gyang and Biyi Bandele, who direct two parts each of the four-episode series.
