A Green Fever
This thriller follows the journey of Kunmi Braithwaite, an architect, and his daughter, Ireti, who is struck by green fever. While in search of help, they end up in the house of a strict Colonel and become trapped. As the story unfolds, secrets are revealed, unveiling the true nature of the characters.
The first thing to note is that A Green Fever is a beautiful film to watch. This visual beauty faithfully captures the era it portrays through meticulous attention to detail in setting and location. The camera work is stunning and fitting as it follows the characters. There is also a sense of intimacy that's pivotal in this movie. These elements are further elevated by a perfectly suited score.
Storytelling here is done well. Firstly, the story is fresh and engaging. The story begins with a frenzied introduction, before slowing down and gradually building momentum again. As we watch the characters, we're anxious to see where it all ends but still delighted to follow through the movie's guide. The climax, while both brilliant and flawed, pushes the boundaries of the story, leaving us stunned by its revelations. Although the final moments may feel hurried, the overall experience is undeniably rewarding.
Temilolu Fosudo and William Benson are interesting leads. Fosudo as a protagonist is effectively counterbalanced by Benson's portrayal of villainy. As the men try to outwit one another, we're glued to our seats.
Amidst the flood of unoriginal, recycled stories saturating Nollywood, "A Green Fever" emerges as a refreshing and distinct standout.
7.5/10.
