some elements didn't work
ngandacinema14 September 2023
We appreciated the captivating plot, production, and hard-working individuals on this set!

Apart from the kidnapping story, some elements didn't work in favor of the movie making it a bit dull

DELICIOUS

-The cinematography was spectacular as Kabelo Thathe was very intentional with the camera movements to convey a message

-The dark color grading created the gloomy and intimidating atmosphere the film was calling for

-Good lesson taught on restorative justice! Many points to take from the movie, especially when it came to patience.

BLAND

-Acting was mainly weak: Susan Wokoma appeared quite melancholic prior to her daughter's disappearance and maintained this repetitive expression throughout the movie

Kate Henshaw, though fully pregnant, was walking energetically and even chasing a criminal on foot😣

-Bola's costume design was not that realistic. She was wearing bright colors while passing through a gloomy state and had on tight-fitting short skirts while going in search of her daughter

-As the film didn't have any parallel story, it became very monotonous.

Why did Inspector Folashade have to be pregnant when this barely affected the story? It was a little confusing as we didn't get to know more about her outside of work.
