Hello friends of Hive, welcome to the Scrobble.life community. Today I want to share a movie review on this movie titled Like Father Like Daughter. This movie was very interesting, and the movie is about a father and his daughter who are both dramatic in their own ways. The father had a daughter that he abandoned because he mistakenly got a lady pregnant, but he didn't really love the lady. So he ran away and left the lady to take care of their daughter. He actually even forgot that he had a daughter because he and the lady had separated and started living their own lives, while the mother was the one taking care of their daughter.
The mother of the little girl wanted to get married to someone else, and she said she didn't want her daughter to stay with her because she was too troublesome. So she wanted her to stay with her biological father. This was how it got to the point where the mother gave the little girl some money and gave her directions to go to her biological dad's place.
The father was having a girlfriend who had been eating his money. That girlfriend was just so wicked because she didn't really love him at all. All her plans were to eat his money and ruin his life. He genuinely loved her, but she didn't use to pay him back with the same love. Immediately when the father arrived home with his girlfriend, he saw the little girl and she told him that he was her father. At first, he denied that she was his daughter and said that he would send her back to wherever she was coming from.
The daughter didn't have anything else to do than to lie to her dad that she got a scholarship and they would be giving her 10 million naira because of the debate competition they had in school. Immediately the dad heard this, he accepted her as his daughter just because he heard about the 10 million. He even started taking good care of her, giving her good food, and asking her when they were going to go to the school to collect the 10 million together. They fixed a day to go.
The funniest part was that he even went to sew new clothes for himself and his daughter that they would wear when they went to collect the 10 million gift. The dad actually didn't know that his daughter was just fooling him. The dad and his daughter travelled for over 24 hours in a car just to go to her school, but the daughter kept giving him different directions. He became so tired to the point that he noticed she was lying to him. When they came back home, he told her that before he went out and came back, he didn't want to see her in his house anymore. The daughter begged him, but the dad refused.
The father's girlfriend was just so deceiving. She kept making him send her money regularly. He would go and hustle together with his daughter, but when this man came back home, he would send and give all the money to this wicked girlfriend who didn't even like him at all. He thought he was building a future with her, but he didn't know that he was digging his own grave. The daughter had advised her dad to stop sending her money, but the dad always quarrelled with her because he never understood that she was trying to tell him the truth about his girlfriend.
The little girl decided to make a plan so that her dad would not be giving all his money to his fake girlfriend. Whenever they went for their hustle together, the little daughter was the one collecting money from the customers. So whenever she gathered the money, she would divide it into two and tell her dad that this was what she got from the hustle. The dad kept wondering and complaining about why his money didn't use to come out as much as before. At first, he thought maybe his daughter was stealing the money, but the daughter tried to cover herself and made him believe that this was what they were getting. Even with the little money the daughter was giving him, he kept giving it to his fake girlfriend because the girlfriend was always asking him for money.
The daughter had always advised her dad to be very careful with his girlfriend. She told him that she saw her kissing another guy, but the dad never believed what his daughter was saying because he thought his daughter simply didn't like the lady.
But until this very day, the father was about to go to where his girlfriend worked, and he immediately saw his girlfriend with another man. He was absolutely shocked because he never imagined that she would cheat on him. But now he had seen it with his own eyes, and from there he remembered that what his daughter had been telling him was true. He confronted her, but the lady claimed to the other guy that she had never seen this man before. The father was absolutely surprised at how she could just deny him like that. He was very disappointed and shocked.
The father sat down quietly and began to regret ever knowing the girl he thought was his girlfriend. All he could think about was all the money and investment he had given to her. He didn't know that she was a cheater and a betrayer. He was just regretting everything and thinking about how to start over because he didn't have any Kobo in his pocket. He was completely broke.
When his daughter saw that he was worried a lot, she finally decided to tell him about the money she had been saving without his knowledge. Immediately she told the father, he was absolutely shocked and also felt excited at the same time because he didn't expect that the daughter he thought was a problem would bring joy into his life again. She had been able to save a lot of money in just a couple of days. When he saw the amount of money, he imagined that if he had been saving money like this for a very long time, he could have become a rich man by now. He really appreciated his daughter and finally welcomed her fully into his life.
This movie is actually a lesson about knowing your partner and making sure they truly love you, not just because of your money. We really have to be careful about the people we choose to have in our lives. The father thought his daughter was bad luck in his life, not knowing that she would become a light in his life. Like the proverb says, blood is thicker than water, and sometimes the people we don't expect can be the ones who stand by us when everything goes wrong.
