The Best Movie Ever In Nigeria (amazing Grace?)

I wouldn't call it excellent, sadly. I'm not even sure it qualifies as generically good. There are some awful performances and a lot of 'borrowed' material from earlier films/TV shows on slavery like "Roots". I thought this movie was a big disappointment after all the publicity that the Amatas got and the hype about it being on film instead of video. It certainly looks much better than the average Naija video, but it wasn't as good as your average Tunde Kelani or even Emem Isong etc. movies. Fred Amata's acting was unconvincing, and that British actor Nick Moran was equally bad for most of the movie. Annoying little quirks like 17th-century Cross Riverians with permed hair will distract you from the movie, along with ludicrous little plot twists (i.e. it turns slavery into some sort of international work exchange program at some point). It was not worth the time or hype at all for me.
