Popular actor and model, Joseph Benjamin, has commended Nigeria’s up and coming Nollywood actress cum producer, Lisa Omorodion, over the outcome of her first movie, First Cut. Joseph Benjamin, who played a lead role in the movie, said there’re no better words other than “biggest miss of the year” could describe the experience of anyone who misses out on the thrilling and educative movie.

The popular actor said: “First Cut is a great movie. I could not believe it is Omorodion’s first attempt at production; the outcome is a great product. So much work was put into it and having Chico Ejiro direct it, and people like Bobby Obodo makes it a great mix.”
First Cut is a theatrical blend of morals, fashion, education, information and professionalism in filmmaking and production directed by Chico Ejiro, featuring plots with collections of suspense, emotions, neglect, sex, insecurity, parenting, abuse, trauma and other psychological elements.
The movie narrates the story of KC Morgan, the central character, played by the producer herself, Lisa Omorodion, a character respected by many yet suppressed by trauma, and her painful secret, which threatens to shatter the new life she has created for herself. Her woes are multiplied by her loved ones, who continue to inflict pains on her.
First Cut embodies Nollywood stars with competence, mastery, class and real professionalism like Monalisa Chinda and Bobby Obodo. Joseph Benjamin in his conclusion said: “We need good movies like First Cut to give us a reality check. There are many deeper things to talk about other than love; yes, we need love but our being isn’t just about love.”
