Here are some of the reviews 30 days has received:
“30 days has thrown down the gauntlet not only to Nigerian Filmmakers but also to Nigerians and fans of Nollywood”
- Kola Munnis, (Executive producer Osofia in London)
“30 Days gets a thumb up for taking the time in pre-production, on location and in post to do all kinds of things right.”
- Sola Osofisan, Founder of Naijarules and Nigerians in America
“30 Days is a film bristling with lethal gusto. It shocks, grips, and entertains; all elements which make for exciting viewing. In the heat of the tension, passion, and suspense is the unsuspecting mastermind who only the clairvoyant will begin to suspect until events unfold in the course of the movie.”
“A timely piece, especially as the Nigerian government tackles corruption and abuse of office by public officers. It pays special attention to sound, lighting and other technical qualities.”
“The film reeks of pervasive vengeance and un-conformist tendencies, which culminates into a richly contrasting pool of the league of rebels who now see themselves as the last bastion in a morally decrepit society.
“Be warned: not all pretty girls have lipsticks in their handbags, some of them carry guns! 30 Days is a terrific thriller set in modern-day Nigeria.”
- Joy Bewaji, Founder of Festacbreed Magazine
"The movie’s technical work is impressive. It is entertaining! it’s got the thrills and the frills! The plot is extensive and the story is very touching."
-Abimbola Adelakun, Nigerian Punch Newspaper

I saw the movie last week and I was really amazed at the brilliant production. Joke Silva as usual smashed the role..very good interpretation of role. Genevieve is a star any day and the rest.
Above all, the movie was patiently produced, I would like to add that if only the all other nollywood directors can do great jobs.
