Leave the World Behind (2023)
Unfulfilled...
Lots of foreplay without the actual consummation, leaving you in a frustrated state of heightened anticipation. The movie ends abruptly with so many questions left unanswered. Did they run out of funds?
What was the point of that drunken dance between G. H. and Amanda? Where was it meant to lead to? Or the joint smoking session between Clay and Ruth? They developed these sub-relationships on screen and you think, okay, this is leading somewhere, and then...zilch.
I love the premise of the whole movie and was really into it for the whole 138 minutes runtime, hoping for a spectacular reveal and ending.
I reckon it was in my disappointment of the inconclusive ending that prompted me to leave the 4 rating. It could have been so much better.
Òlòturé (2019)
Sorry, very poor in all aspects
Lots of people have been bigging up this Nigerian movie on social media so I decided to give it a go and watch it recently.
What a terrible waste of almost 2hrs of my life.
Where do I start the review from? Acting? Poor. Storyline? Probably passable. Sequence of events? Terrible. Script? Laughable. Ending? I don't know if that is Nollywood's idea of a cliffhanger ending, one without a story conclusion. Making us look forward to "Part 2"? God forbid.
I thought quality of movies being churned out in Nollywood has gone up but this just confirms that there is a very long way to go.
