@SEzekwesili Chidi Mokeme is definitely giving us "menacing", and doing it with faithfulness to Old Nollywood tropes (which require playing this more theatrically than Hollywood). I like.
@SEzekwesili Nancy Isime and "P Square" didn't deliver that bar scene.
I saw exactly what they were going for, and it was a great idea, but they couldn't stick the landing.
Great lighting. Great drink mix montage.
Also, the lines they gave them were atrocious. Failed ghen-ghen.
@SEzekwesili Beautiful Shalewa-Femi/Jackie-Scar montage.
Both with cars, by the way.
@SEzekwesili I don't have clarity about Jackie's motivations in the bar, car, and Femi's house, but there's a chance I'm just being slow.
@SEzekwesili Shaffy Bello.
Nah.
Delivering poor lines poorly.
Writing witty monologues is a skill in of itself.
@SEzekwesili Body Double Appreciation Tweet.
@SEzekwesili Shaffy's performance is better in the subsequent scenes.
The lines haven't improved much.
@SEzekwesili A general critique I have so far with the writing is that it struggles to establish and justify motivation.
Another case in point: Scar.
@SEzekwesili "As I be Jesus Boy so..."
SIR???!!!
@SEzekwesili Opening scene of Episode 5 calls for a Nancy Isime Appreciation Tweet. No body double here.
