Ramsey Nouah stars in Moses Inwang’s “Crazy People” as a famous Nollywood star who returns to the limelight after a one year hiatus to track down his imposter. Together with his manager, Lucinda (Chigul) they try to find this imposter and stop him from taking more jobs from the real Ramsey. After seeing the trailer for this film, I wasn’t hyped in any way to see it even though Nouah is one of my favorite Nollywood actors. Recently, he hasn’t really been in movies worth talking about. The last was 76’ with Rita Dominic and I haven’t been impressed since then. I have been disappointed time after time with Nollywood films but I’m not ready to give up, so I gave Crazy People a try.
The cast was alright and they gave a solid performance but they were a lot of unnecessary scenes I wish stayed out of the film. It was also too long for such a thin plot. There were a few issues with the sound in the beginning and a lot of scenes were very unrealistic. Lucinda is in a psychiatric facility and she has her nails and lashes fixed. Does this happen in psychiatric homes? In a way, I liked the plot. It was original and they did an awesome job with the cinematography. It still felt a bit empty and almost half the theater left before the end. I almost did too, but I had to see where they were headed. There was nothing particularly special about this film, it had a good story but I don't think it was perfectly executed. I won’t recommend you see this except it’s from your TV screen.
