Unexpected Places
Bimbo’s dazzling work keeps her viewers hooked. Unexpected Places is a rollercoaster of emotions with a pretty unhappy ending.
The camera work is praiseworthy; from the angle and movement to the lighting.
The beautiful story sheds light on the fact that people can change and fall in love at unexpected places as the name suggests. But it was obvious that Prosper would date Chris, so Bimbo killed that possibility by putting them into conflict with each other because it would be hard for someone like Chris to love anybody else apart from himself.
Unlike most Nollywood movies, she did her research well about Chris’ sickness.
Many dimensions of ‘love’ were brought out in this film. We can see love between Chris and Prosper, Mr Mudueke and his family, Prosper and her mum, Chris and Debola (his friend).
This movie says everything about life not always going according to our wants or even fair expectations. Your destiny is not just determined by your wishes alone but also by good deeds done or wealth acquired; otherwise Chris could have lived longer than he did. It shows how difficult it can be getting a liver transplant even when you have money as depicted in this film.
Chris dies suddenly even after changing positively and finding love anew which indicates how unpredictable life could be leaving many yearning for different outcomes.
One lapse noticed within its story line occurred when much time was spent by Prosper looking after Chris while her mother needed care due to illness. Although one might argue that Prosper’s mother could take care of herself after surgery depending on its nature, such aspects raise questions about priorities in caregiving duties which should have been addressed more appropriately if the defense is that her mom became strong enough post discharge from hospital following certain operation.
