It was so great to see this strong male cast with all our favorite actors on board😃
Buuuttt very regrettably the film felt like it told us two different stories...which broke the momentum.
DELICIOUS
-The cinematography did a great job to enhance the storytelling, The camera angles and movements were teasing us throughout the narrative. Letting us know that the atmosphere was ominous and suspicious
-The visual and special effects during the explosion scene were impressive, it was terrifying, we were so uneasy trying to figure out what we would do if we were in the characters' shoes😱
-It was symbolic that the savage nature encountered during the story represented man and his desire to get rich by all means possible, kinda like a dog-eat-dog mentality.
And it was significant that the farm plantation which was once a business opportunity became a battlefield
BLAND
-From the beginning to the climax, we understood where the narrative was headed. After the climax, it now felt like we were watching a survival film which had nothing to do with the overall purpose
-Additionally, the storytelling was dragging. It took a long time to arrive at the climax, many scenes were going in circles, and even after the climax, there was a long moment spent with the characters trying in vain to run for their lives 🙁
