MOVIE REVIEW: ‘A Weekend to Forget’ is very unforgettable, quite immersive

Daniel Etim-Effiong, Neo Akpofure, Elozonam Ogbolu, Erica Nweledim, Ini-Dima Okojie, Stan Nze, Uche Montana, and Akin Lewis, among others.

The next scene properly introduces us to the central idea of the movie: Chief Ajasca’s daughter, Lisa, is going on a weekend getaway with her boyfriend, Bem. Chief Ajasca doesn’t joke with his daughter, so, while he gives Bem his beautiful and luxurious car for the weekend getaway, he instructs him to bring his ‘baby’ in one piece, by his ‘baby’ he means his only daughter, Lisa.

As they embark on the daunting quest to uncover the murderer among them, trust is shattered, and friendships are pushed to the brink. Will the murderer be unveiled? Will the remaining six escape the house alive?While Daniel Etim, Stan Nze, and Ini- Dima Okojie, and Uche Montana, are regular actors, the rest actors were ex-reality show housemates-turned actor, they include Erica, Elozonam and Neo, though Erica had some acting experience before the reality show.

This starkly contrasts many recent Nollywood productions, which feature sprawling and intricate plots, numerous exotic locales, and a star-studded ensemble but sadly achieve little.The storyline is understood as how the film has been told in the eyes of the audience. On the other hand, Suspense is the undecided and doubtful situation in the movie; it is the driving force that keeps the audience glued to the film.

The storyline, suspense, and irony were well conveyed through the dialogue; only at the end of the movie was there any flashback, but the conversations gave insight into the character’s past. The camera’s attention to subtle details and sounds gave the movie another enjoyable experience away from the intriguing storyline and dialogue.
