Emeka is the exact OPPOSITE of that.
in every single role, he appears shrill, condescending, arrogant, weak, opportunistic and ignorant. and it has nothing to do with the scripts... it's an aura that he radiates as an individual. so i find it bizarre that he is often cast as a hero... it confuses me: i'm often like "am I actually supposed to LIKE this character and sympathize with him?"
i can't do it.

Oh my my...Emeka is really in very bad shape with us here. I'm surprise that with all the comments that have been said about his acting here those producers are still having him appear in their movies...and I'm sure a number of them do read comments being posted on the site.
Anyway, Emeka has a very attractive looks on screen and that is when he doesn't open his mouth...but the minute he starts to talk both his fine appearance and acting all go down the drain.
