Popular American television, Amazon Studios, has acquired Jim Iyke’s latest movie production “Bad Comments”

According to the award-winning actor, the movie was produced as a way to address social media trolling.

“The social media space isn’t being utilized positively and this is tragic. Social Media is supposed to be a space where people can find their dreams and shortcuts to exhibit what they really are. Jim Iyke earlier explained when asked about his movie.
