Video.i.ng – Roger Ebert Free Guy Movie Review – “Free Guy” is like a hyperactive puppy. It really wants to be your friend.

News Shared on Time is News Heard !

With a set-up that feels distinctly like that of “The LEGO Movie,” “Free Guy” introduces us to the very likable Guy (Ryan Reynolds), an NPC (Non-Player Character) in a wildly successful open world video game called “Free City.” He wears the same outfit every day, orders the same coffee, and goes to work at the same bank, which gets robbed multiple times a day by actual players in this “Grand Theft Auto”-esque game.

He doesn’t care. Everything is awesome for Guy and his best pal Buddy (Lil Rel Howery) until the cheery fella spots a real player who goes by the handle Molotov Girl (Comer) and breaks his pattern, following the captivating woman down the street. As he becomes more interested in Molotov Girl and where she might be going, he gets his hands on a pair of sunglasses that reveal what the actual players see in this world, including missions, medikits, hubs, and other things that will be familiar to modern gamers, even if some of the tech here already looks dated. (Note: It was a brilliant move to incorporate actual gamers and streamers like Ninja, Pokimane, and DanTDM, cameos that will have kids who know those personalities jumping out of their seats.)

Back in the real world, we learn that Molotov Girl is a programmer named Millie, who used to work with another tech genius named Keys (Joe Keery) on the development of a truly ambitious virtual game, one that would replicate the actual world instead of just giving gamers violent missions to perform. She’s in “Free City” trying to find evidence that the game’s egocentric publisher Antwan (Taika Waititi) stole her code and deformed it into this bland experience when Guy proves to be the perfect inside man. The Trinity to his Neo, the two form an alliance to basically break “Free City” apart from the inside, starting with Guy’s refusal to raise his rank through violence. Guy chooses only the positive missions in the game, and becomes an internet success in the process as the world tries to figure out who this mysterious gamer might be, without realizing that he’s actually the most remarkable breakthrough in artificial intelligence in history. As Millie and Keys discover what has been created here, they endeavor to save true advancement from brash capitalism.

Director Shawn Levy does an admirable job of keeping “Free Guy” clicking and humming through several entertaining scenes in the first half, including a great montage of Guy’s “good” missions and a funny sequence in which Keys and his programming partner Mouser (Utkarsh Ambudkar) go after Guy, but he really starts to lose the pace around the hour mark, circling back to a lot of the same plot points and themes. Rather than developing its own personality, the film struggles to shake the clear influence of other projects like “The Matrix,” “Ready Player One,” and even “The Truman Show” while also dropping in actual gaming and pop culture references with increasing regularity. The film’s best moments embrace the potential of this concept; its worst seem to be mimicking better projects.

Levy also keeps the strongest parts of “Free Guy” moving by drawing out the natural charisma of his cast. Reynolds can do this kind of charming action hero in his sleep, but Comer is a real breakthrough, charismatically holding together both the action-driven scenes as Molotov Girl and the more character-driven ones as Millie. She’s easily the best thing about the film, although it’s nice to see the affable Joe Keery get his best movie role to date too. Sadly, both cede a bit too much screen time to an overplaying Waititi in the second half of the movie, who hits the same unfunny beats over and over again and ends up feeling more cartoonish than the actual NPCs.

Every time that “Free Guy” threatens to become numbingly monotonous, a decision by writers Matt Lieberman and Zak Penn, or one by Comer or Reynolds, brings it back into focus. “Free Guy” is more disposable than it should have been, but it’s a pleasant enough distraction. Gamers often turn to virtual worlds to escape their own. It’s fun to see the journey taken in the other direction.

After Fela – Top 10 Nigerian Celebrities who promote drugs alcohol and weed and their effects on nigerian youth and why the NDLEA needs to prosecute themTop 10 Nigerian Celebrities Accused of Promoting Drugs, Alcohol, and Weed: Influence on Youth and the Case for NDLEA Action An Investigative Analysis of Celebrity Influence in Nigeria’s Drug Crisis Nigeria grapples with a devastating drug abuse epidemic, with NDLEA reporting over 14 million users, many of them youths aged 15–35. While socioeconomic factors, unemployment, and peer pressure drive this crisis, studies consistently highlight the role of celebrity culture — particularly in music, social media, and videos — in normalizing and glamorizing substance use. This article examines ten prominent Nigerian celebrities frequently criticized for promoting drugs, alcohol, and cannabis (weed) through lyrics, visuals, and lifestyles. It explores the documented effects on Nigerian youth and why the NDLEA and broader society argue for stronger accountability. Top 10 Celebrities Often Cited for Promotion Naira Marley Frequently called out for lyrics and social media content that celebrate “Igbo” (weed) and street drug culture. His “Marlian” movement has been linked to rebellious youth subcultures involving substance use. Burna Boy Grammy winner whose tracks like “Last Last” openly reference needing “Igbo and Shayo” (weed and alcohol). His public persona and videos often portray substance use as part of the rockstar lifestyle. Wizkid Regularly posts smoking-related content on Instagram and features relaxed, party-oriented themes involving alcohol and weed in his music and visuals. Davido High-profile party lifestyle posts and songs that celebrate excess, including heavy drinking and occasional weed references, influence his massive young fanbase. Asake Emerging star whose energetic tracks and visuals often incorporate street drug slang and party culture centered on alcohol and cannabis. Olamide Veteran rapper known for gritty street narratives that frequently glorify weed and alcohol as coping mechanisms or symbols of success. Shallipopi Newer artist criticized for lyrics and statements that normalize cannabis use, though he has occasionally distanced himself in interviews. Tiwa Savage Her music video “Asake Loaded” drew academic scrutiny for drug-related portrayals that researchers say influence undergraduates toward experimentation. Zlatan and other street-hop artists Aggressive promotion of “skunk,” “loud,” and lean culture in music and social media. Olamide’s protégés and similar acts (e.g., certain DMW and YBNL affiliates) Collective influence through group dynamics that celebrate “high life” with visible alcohol and weed consumption. Note: Many of these artists also produce non-drug content and some have spoken against hard drugs. Categorization here reflects public criticism and research on recurring themes rather than blanket condemnation. Artistic freedom complicates direct blame. Effects on Nigerian Youth Research paints a concerning picture: Normalization and Imitation: A 2025 study in Lagos found 97% of surveyed youths follow celebrities who display drugs online, with 68.6% believing such displays influence substance abuse. Repeated exposure increases the likelihood of experimentation. Validation and Peer Pressure: Celebrities provide social proof that makes alcohol (ranked highest), cannabis, codeine, and Tramadol seem “cool” or performance-enhancing for parties, exams, or hustling. Behavioral Impact: High negative influence scores (RII 0.56–0.75) link celebrity portrayals to increased daily substance use among students. Music videos and social media act as subtle campaigns that glamorize risk-taking. Broader Consequences: Contributes to higher school dropouts, mental health issues (psychosis, depression), crime, and health complications like organ damage. With cannabis ranking second only to alcohol in usage, youth in urban centers like Lagos, Onitsha, and Jos face heightened vulnerability. Youths often cite celebrities as role models, turning artistic expression into perceived endorsement. Why NDLEA Needs to Prosecute (or Strongly Regulate) NDLEA officials have publicly placed certain celebrities on watchlists and stated that while lyrics alone may not warrant arrest (due to free speech protections), actual possession, trafficking, or direct incitement crosses into criminal territory. Arguments for Stronger Action: Public Health Emergency: With millions addicted, influencers bear moral and potential legal responsibility when their platforms reach millions of impressionable fans. Displacement of Accountability: Celebrities profit from glamorized content while NDLEA bears the burden of treatment and enforcement. Prosecution for possession or sponsorship of drug-related events would send a deterrent message. Inconsistent Standards: NDLEA arrests everyday users and dealers aggressively. Celebrities appearing above the law undermines public trust and enforcement credibility. Precedent and Impact: Past arrests of lesser-known figures (e.g., skit makers with Tramadol) show the agency can act. Extending scrutiny to high-profile cases could reduce supply and demand by curbing cultural glorification. Critics argue prosecution for art risks censorship, and NDLEA’s mandate focuses more on trafficking than cultural influence. Better tools may include mandatory anti-drug messaging in sponsored content, fines for blatant promotion, or collaboration with NBC for content regulation. Conclusion: Balancing Art and Responsibility Nigerian celebrities wield enormous soft power. When that power normalizes substances fueling a generational crisis, society suffers. While not every party reference equals promotion, the cumulative effect of repeated, glamorous depictions is undeniable per multiple studies. NDLEA must evolve beyond seizures to address root cultural drivers. This could mean targeted investigations into possession among influencers, public shaming through evidence-based campaigns, or partnerships for responsible messaging. Youths deserve role models who inspire productivity, not escapism. Nigeria’s future hinges on protecting its greatest asset — its young people — from both the drugs themselves and the superstar lifestyles that make them look desirable. Accountability, not just awareness, is urgently needed.

From Tramadol to Canadian to Exol-5 The New Drug Destroying Nigerian Youths An Investigative Article .From Tramadol to Canadian to Exol-5: The New Drug Destroying Nigerian Youths An Investigative Report on the Shifting Landscape of Substance Abuse in Nigeria Nigeria faces a severe and evolving drug crisis, particularly among its youth. What began with the widespread abuse of Tramadol has progressed through mixtures like “Canadian” to newer pharmaceutical diversions such as Exol-5. This shift reflects deeper issues: easy access to prescription drugs, weak regulation, socioeconomic pressures, and aggressive street-level marketing. NDLEA operations and health studies reveal a public health emergency that threatens an entire generation. Phase 1: The Tramadol Epidemic (2010s–Early 2020s) Tramadol, a synthetic opioid prescribed for moderate to severe pain, became Nigeria’s most notorious street drug. Cheap, potent, and widely smuggled (often from India and other Asian countries), it offered users energy, euphoria, and pain relief — appealing to commercial drivers, laborers, students, and young men seeking confidence or stamina. Scale of the Problem: Millions of tablets seized annually by NDLEA. High prevalence among young males aged 15–35. Linked to increased crime, sexual violence, organ damage (kidney failure, seizures), and mental health breakdowns. Contributed to broader opioid misuse alongside codeine cough syrups. Government responses included tighter import controls and public awareness campaigns, but these only displaced demand to other substances rather than eliminating it. Phase 2: The Rise of “Canadian” (Mid-2020s) “Canadian” or “Canadian Loud” emerged as a popular code for high-grade cannabis (often indica-dominant strains) or cannabis mixed with other synthetics. It gained traction as users sought alternatives or combinations to Tramadol’s effects. This phase marked a move toward imported or locally cultivated premium weed, sometimes laced with stronger chemicals. Youths in urban centers like Lagos, Kano, Jos, and Onitsha embraced it for its perceived “cleaner” high compared to opioids. However, it fueled polydrug use — combining cannabis with opioids, sedatives, or alcohol — amplifying health risks. Phase 3: Exol-5 – The Current Threat (2024–2026) Exol-5 (Benzhexol Hydrochloride / Trihexyphenidyl 5mg), originally a prescription medication for Parkinson’s disease and drug-induced movement disorders, has become the latest pharmaceutical being heavily abused. Why Exol-5? Euphoric Effects: Users report intense euphoria, hallucinations, and a sense of detachment — making it attractive as a cheap “upper” or escape. Accessibility: Sold over-the-counter or on the black market despite being a controlled prescription drug. NDLEA has seized millions of pills in single operations (e.g., 3.1 million pills in Kano in late 2024, and over 5.6 million combined with Tramadol in other busts). Street Names: Exol, Artane, Benzhexol, “Farin Mallam” (in Northern Nigeria). Demographics: Prevalent among youths, laborers, and even psychiatric patients who divert prescriptions. Studies show abuse rates as high as 25% among certain outpatient groups. Health Consequences: Anticholinergic toxicity: Confusion, dry mouth, blurred vision, urinary retention, constipation, and in high doses — delirium, psychosis, seizures, and heart issues. Long-term: Cognitive impairment, addiction, exacerbated mental health disorders. Often mixed with Tramadol, codeine, or cannabis, creating dangerous synergies. In cities like Jos, Exol-5 sits alongside diazepam, Rohypnol, and Tramadol on street markets, easily available to teenagers and young adults. Why This Evolution Continues Supply-Side Failures: Porous borders, corrupt officials, and overproduction of pharmaceuticals enable diversion. Demand Drivers: Unemployment, poverty, peer pressure, trauma, and the pursuit of performance enhancement (e.g., for “hustle” culture). Weak Regulation: Many pharmacies sell restricted drugs without prescriptions. Online and street vendors fill gaps. Displacement Effect: Cracking down on one substance (Tramadol/codeine) pushes users and dealers toward the next available option. NDLEA reports ongoing large seizures, but the problem persists due to high profitability and low risk for mid-level distributors. Broader Impacts on Nigerian Youths Education: Increased dropout rates and poor academic performance. Mental Health: Rising cases of psychosis and depression. Economy: Lost productivity among the working-age population. Crime and Violence: Drug-fueled robberies, cultism, and family breakdowns. Public Health System Strain: Overburdened hospitals treating overdoses and chronic complications. Young people aged 15–39 remain the hardest hit, with national surveys showing drug use prevalence significantly above global averages. What Must Be Done Stronger Enforcement: Consistent prosecution of corrupt enablers and large-scale traffickers. Regulation: Crackdown on rogue pharmacies and better tracking of prescription drugs. Prevention & Rehabilitation: School programs, community outreach, and expanded treatment centers (currently woefully inadequate). Economic Alternatives: Address root causes like youth unemployment. Public Awareness: Honest campaigns highlighting real dangers of “Exol-5” and similar drugs. Conclusion From Tramadol’s opioid grip to “Canadian” cannabis culture and now Exol-5’s anticholinergic highs, Nigeria’s drug crisis is mutating faster than responses can contain it. Exol-5 represents the dangerous new frontier — a legitimate medicine turned youth destroyer due to misuse and greed. Without urgent, multi-layered intervention — combining supply disruption, demand reduction, and socioeconomic support — an entire generation risks being lost to addiction. The time for half-measures is over. Nigeria’s future depends on winning this fight.
