Ile Owo is the only film I’ve seen recently that failed to make any sense at all. It is proof of what happens when the lore on which a film is based is not properly explained, and I am lowballing. It seems as if the creators made the film for themselves rather than for an audience. The number of questions that began forming in my mind as I watched the film is almost uncountable, and none of them formed out of my interest. Ile Owo takes a piece of folklore and jumbles it up in a way that makes it lose its meaning, whatever that is. This, along with completely bland characterization, makes the film a failure.
