The movie begins with Tunji (Ademola Adedoyin) and his girlfriend of five years, Tolu (Lilian Esoro), going through a rough patch in their relationship. Tolu feels like Tunji has been distant and he feels like Tolu is too demanding. Eventually, they decide to go on a vacation to the Eko Resort and Spa to work on their relationship. Things quickly go awry as soon as they arrive.

Tunji and Tolu discover that the resort has double-booked their room, which means they have to share a room with another couple, Stephanie (Kiki Omeili) and Vishal (Okey Uzoeshi). At first, Tunji and Tolu are unhappy with the arrangement, but as they spend the week together, they learn more about each other and begin to rekindle their romance.

Stephanie and Vishal, on the other hand, are celebrating their second anniversary and are both happy in their relationship. However, as their stay at the resort progresses, they begin to realize that they have different goals for their future. Vishal wants Stephanie to quit her job and start a family, but Stephanie is not ready for that kind of commitment. The couple's problems are complicated by the appearance of Vishal's ex-girlfriend, Maria (Oreka Godis), who wants him back.

As the week goes on, Tunji and Tolu also have their own share of problems. Tunji is hiding a secret from Tolu, and Tolu's ex-boyfriend, Kola (Enyinna Nwigwe), shows up unexpectedly, causing a rift between the couple. Tunji and Tolu must work through their issues in order to save their relationship.

One of the movie's strengths is its relatability. The issues that the couples face in the movie are common relationship problems that many viewers will be able to identify with. The movie also has strong performances from the cast. Ademola Adedoyin and Lilian Esoro have great chemistry, and their performances as Tunji and Tolu feel honest and real. The supporting cast also does a good job of bringing their characters to life.

The movie also has a strong focus on the importance of communication in relationships. The couples' problems could have been solved if they had been open and honest with each other. It sends the message that communication is key to maintaining a healthy relationship.

Another strength of the movie is its cinematography. The gorgeous shots of the resort and the surrounding area make it clear why the characters would want to take a vacation there. Additionally, the music in the movie is great and adds to the overall atmosphere of the movie.

Perhaps the only weakness of the movie is that it has some predictable plot points. It's easy to guess how some of the conflicts between the couples will be resolved. Nevertheless, the way these issues are resolved is still entertaining and satisfying.

In summary, Couple of Days is a well-made romantic comedy-drama with relatable characters and a strong focus on communication in relationships. The performances of the cast are great, and the movie's cinematography and music add to its overall appeal. It's a must-watch for anyone who enjoys romantic comedies or relationship dramas.
