Posted by: Mr. Babatunde« on: May 06, 2023, 04:47:17 AM »A notoriously cunning kidnapper, who has ravaged the southern part of Nigeria for over a decade and is only known by name, undertakes a job that leads to his final undoing. Across films written by talented screenwriter Jade Osiberu, one can easily point out a common feature: they explore social vices affecting our society. In other words, the stories and characters are a mirror of what we see on a local TV station, hear about on the streets, and read in the newspapers. With hit movies like Gangs of Lagos and Brotherhood, projects affiliated with Jade Osiberu bear promises of high stakes and thrilling action. However, after watching The Trade, which was recently released on Prime Video, one cannot help but feel the sharp pain of disappointment as it was a letdown. While it’s quite understandable that a story such as The Trade relies more on storytelling than action scenes, the 2023 movie had several other shortcomings that were not easy to ignore. In addition to its inability to incite several emotions in the hearts of viewers, the storyline lacked complexities and downplayed the potential of many characters. Acclaimed for being based on a true story, The Trade tells the story of a notorious kidnapper whose crimes have ravaged certain parts of Nigeria. The film tells us more about who he is, what his motivations are, and provides a roadmap to the events leading to his arrest. Despite being a missed opportunity to start off the year with a bang, The Trade is one of the few Nollywood films that pays close attention to details, includes a somewhat authentic representation of indigenous language, and optimises the skills of its actors.
