Omotola's Alter Ego

Alter Ego starring Omotola Jalade Ekehinde had all it takes to be a good movie. but really after seeing the 1hour 47 minute feature-length directed by Moses Inyang, it looks like he failed to perform his magic just the way he did in Cold Feet. 

On a first draft level, the script would really sweep you off your feet. 

 Ada Igwe (Omotola Jalade-Ekehinde) a civil rights lawyer bent on bringing child molesters and sexual offenders to justice but seems to have her own demons, an insatiable desire for sexual escapades. Perfect script so what could be the problem? 

The cast list which includes Wale Ojo, Tina Mba, Jide Kosoko, Victor Olaotan seemed OK but one can only wonder why such calibre of actors just played cameo roles. And for Omotola's interpretation, I'm too scared to knock it but it seems to me that there must have been a lack of actor-director synergy. All is not lost though but I'm going to leave you to judge that. It is streaming on Amazon Prime.
