DANGEROUS ANGELS 1&2
DIRECTOR: Ikechukwu Oyenka
WRITER: Chisom Juliet Okereke
PRODUCER: Okoro Chibuikem
SCREENPLAY: Chisom Juliet Okereke
REVIEW DATE: 2010
GENRE: Melodrama
NAME OF REVIEWER: Duru Amaka Amarachi
PLOT (SUMMARY)
The movie is mainly based on a clash between two girls, Foxy; the head of Jezebels, a female cult group in the school and Amanda a freshman in the school.
Foxy, being the terrorist she is, was beating Suzy up in public over an amount of money Suzy refused to hand over to her as agreed. Amanda, seeing this as a very wrong act, stood in for Suzy. That was all Amanda needed to do to get into the black list of the Jezebels.
The Jezebels struck first by destroying Amanda’s car, Amanda struck back by ruining a “business deal” the Jezebels had with a commissioner. Foxy’s crush, Comrade, the head of a male cult group in the school picked interest in Amanda. Not knowing what was going on between Comrade and Foxy, Amanda gave in to Comrade’s advances. Foxy got to know when she saw Amanda in Comrade’s room and this made her hate Amanda even more especially after receiving a slap from Amanda.
The war between the two girls kept going on until Foxy got rusticated for cultism.
THEME: Cultism in universities
SETTING: The movie was shot in Lagos- Nigeria
MAIN CASTS: Foxy – Tonto Dike, Amanda – Ini Edo, Comrade – Nonso Diobi, Suzy - Halima Abubakar, Jojo – Anita Joseph
LANGUAGE: English
FLAWS: Generally to me, the director of this movie didn’t do a good job because he didn’t bring out the best in the actors and actresses; they were quite lousy in their acting. The scene where Jojo and Suzy went for a deal was over flogged. They could have shown more useful scenes instead of wasting so much time on just one scene.
CINEMATOGRAPHY
SHOTS: The most dominant shot in this movie was medium shot. The extreme long shot was used in the first scene; long shots were also used in the movie.
TRANSITION: the fade in and fade out transition was used mostly, but some scenes transitioned wit cut transition.
FINALE: I feel the movie is quite good but it teaches nothing. It only revolved around two girls pulling a prank or two on each other. It was trying to say cultism does not pay, this was why Amanda who was not a cultist eventually won but Amanda herself had a boyfriend (Comrade) who was also a cultist but nothing happened to him. On the average, the movie is entertaining.
