NR Review

Genre:
 
Director: ,
 
Producer:
 
Screenplay:
 
Year:
 
Parts/Divisions: The movie, Omotara Johnson, has three parts namely Omotara Johnson 1, 2, & 3.
 
Cast: Bukky Wright, Chidi Mokeme, Femi Brainard, Adebayo Salami, Toyin Alausa, Akin Lewis.
 
Introduction: Chidi Mokeme speaks Yoruba!!! Who knew?... And flawlessly too; even better than me, (which is really sad for me considering that I AM YORUBA). Reminds me of seeing Genevieve speak Yoruba in Caught in the Act or Ada Ameh in Civil War, I was so surprised! Versatility is definitely key in any industry.
 
Excerpt

The story was interesting and HI-larious!!! Honestly, it was a bit far-fetched in some parts and Kemi’s character was too clueless and naive to be normal. But despite these, the story still had cohesive plot that was understandable and engaging.

Review

-Story: [3 out of 5] The story was interesting and HI-larious!!! Honestly, it was a bit far-fetched in some parts and Kemi’s character was too clueless and naive to be normal. But despite these, the story still had cohesive plot that was understandable and engaging.

 

-Originality: [0 out of 5] Movies about obsessed women who will stop at nothing have been done so many times, I almost didn’t want to see it. But nothing could have stopped me from seeing Chidi speak Yoruba.

 

-Predictability: [0 out of 5] Overall, it was extremely predictable – Omotara gets thrown into jail or dies. But the movie scores points when it comes to Omotara’s craziness; the things that girl did, I did not expect that at all, she’s cray cray.

 

-Directing/Editing: [2 out of 5] Overall it was good directing, even though I noticed a few mistakes. My main problem was with the casting, Kemi and Omotara were portrayed to be these young sexy potatoes, and while Bukky Wright and Toyin Alausa are beautiful in their own right, I did not think they were ideal for the role.

 

-Acting: [3 out of 5] Choi! Bukky Wright. It’s been a while since I saw her in a movie, but she’s still the amazing actress we all know her to be (right from Super Story days). Her character was supposed to be crazy and scary; and she played it to the Tee! She looked like she belonged in Yaba Left (psychiatric hospital). Chidi, oh Chidi. He did such a great job in this movie oh. His delivery was as smooth as peanut butter. He’s one of the better actors we have, no doubt, but his performance in this movie was great to see. However, a lot of the extras, especially the policemen sounded quite stoic and confused.

 

-Setting: [3 out of 5] The exterior of Omotara’s workplace was looking more like a house to me.

 

-Props and Graphics: [2 out of 5] Yes!!!! One of the few Nigerian movies where the offices actually looked like they were being used. There were papers, files, and stationery. Not just one laptop to occupy a big table.

 

-Costume/Make-up: [1 out of 5] Not the best at all. They managed to dress both women in extremely unflattering outfits.

 

-Video Quality: [3 out of 5] This was good, the quality was clear.

 

-Audio Quality: [3 out of 5] I had no problems here.

 

-Soundtrack: [4 out of 5] Two words, Tope Alabi. It was catchy and fun.

 

-Musical Score: [3 out of 5] Appropriate.
