SEVEN DOORS (NETFLIX REVIEW) 2024

April 9, 2025

I absolutely enjoyed every single bit of this movie, it was mind blowing and interesting, filled with loads of lessons and encouragement of how we have to be very careful in life and our decisions.

After hearing so many recommendations about Seven Doors, I finally gave in and watched it. Honestly, I must say I was blown away! The hype was real, and the storytelling lived up to all the praise.

Femi Adebayo and Chioma Chukwuka totally killed this and brought their roles to life.

The series revolves around Adedunjoye (played by Femi Adebayo), who was living a peaceful life with his wife Amaka (played by Chioma Chukwuka Akpotha) and their two kids. Everything seemed perfect until one fateful day, the village elders came knocking. They had a plea: Adedunjoye must return to the village and take up his rightful place as the king, carrying on the heritage of his forefathers.

At first, Adedunjoye rejected the offer outright, but after much pressure and persuasion from his wife, he finally agreed on the condition that she would support him throughout the process. Things seemed to go well at first, but disaster soon struck. Plagues, mysterious accidents, and conflicts began to disrupt the peace in the village. Even Adedunjoye’s family wasn’t spared.

Confused and desperate, Adedunjoye turned to the oracle for answers. What the oracle revealed was shocking, it demanded a sacrifice that seemed almost impossible. Both he and his wife were left grappling with unimaginable decisions. To see how it all unfolded, you’ll have to watch the series yourself. I couldn’t help but feel heartbroken for Adedunjoye as he struggled with everything, almost losing it all. It left me wondering: Why didn’t they tell him the whole truth before crowning him? Maybe they feared he would walk away.
