According to him, House of Gaa has good effects, action, and the video quality was good, but it was full of blunders and wrong historical information.

He explained that the movie was good, as he commended the efforts of the producers, however, he added that the film was misleading, and scored it 5/10.

Comparing House of Gaa to another film produced 20 years ago by ace writer Adebayo Faleti.

Okunade said that because Baṣọ̀run Gáà was produced in 2004, the camera quality of the movie was very poor compared to this new Netflix-standard House of Gaa. Despite that flaw, he still picked the late Baba Adébáyọ̀ Fálétí’s Basorun Gaa over Austin Peters film.

Recall that Femi Branch, one of the actors in House of Gaa was applauded for his acting prowess in the film.

@Segolopade:

"Great review and insights which brings me to the next question. How deep and far reaching are our researches conducted before rolling out such movies with great historical implications? "

@Bobbydbobo:

"Thank you for this review. I said the exact same thing when discussing it with couple of friends. At first, they felt my bias (being Adebayo Faleti’s grandson) was the reason for my explanation but after breaking these same points, especially noting that Oyalabi (The Ààre Òna Kákánfò) was himself from Ilorin."

@SOTesleem:

"With this, I'm suddenly not interested in watching the House of Gaa."

@NonsoEzeani1:

“Great review. I read a lot about Bashorun Gaa in Yoruba studies at secondary school so I was able to notice a lot of gaps in the recently released film. Nevertheless, thumbs up to the brains behind it."
