The Year 2015 had lots of expectations from Nigerians on Movie production in Africa's Largest Movie Industry but these huge expectations were met. Here are five major Nollywood Movies produced in the year 2015 under review that hit a bang and we love every Nigerian to see.
1. Stephanie Linus - "Dry"
The film's theme focuses on Vesicovaginal fistula condition and underaged marriage which was getting rampant among young women in Nigeria especially in the Northern Region.

2. Taxi Driver "Oko Ashewo"
Taxi driver (Oko Ashewo) is an hilarious comedy drama about working in Lagos at night, as a taxi Driver. It tells the story of how Adigun (Femi Jacobs) copes with dealing with the multitude of odd characters he comes across from Delia (Ijeoma Grace Agu) the queen prostitute, to Kakanfo (Hafiz Oyetoro) the unseen vigilante, the notorious assassins ‘three wise men’, to the Godfather, Baba Mistura and many more interesting characters that ply their trade in Lagos at night.
3. Iyore
Iyore (The Return) or as I like to call it "Playing with Reincarnation"
is a twisted tale of love transcending from one lifetime to another and
growing stronger each time it is reenacted. It tells the story of
Osarugue (Rita Dominic) a married Secondary school English teacher in
the 80's who is in love with a crown prince of Benin Kingdom Azuwa
(Joseph Benjamin) but it is forbidden for she already belongs to another
man Osas (Yemi Blaq). The Prince Azuwa is to be married to Ajoke (Okawa
Shaznay) a Yoruba Princesss who might be a Reincarnation of Amenze on
of the scared Virgins of the ancient Benin Kingdom who had an affair
with Edosa the warrior and had to elope with when rather than be buried
alive with the dying king
