I have started to notice lately how the Nigerian moving industry is exploring a new form of audience using YouTube channels.
What I admire most about this is that the sets of movies I have seen so far aren't just your usual Nigerian storylines but something more creative, intriguing, and interesting that will make you want more. One such movie I just finished watching is Off Balance, starring our ever-talented Nadia Buhari, portrayed as Madame Gate.
About The Story Line
The storyline is not your usual a Prince pretending to be poor to find love; this has a lot more juicy elements of surprises and turns that can have you stay glued to your seat 🪑 from beginning to end.
Off Balance explored the life of an arrogant, inconsiderate, super-rich Madame Gate who thinks that using her money to put fear in those around her will make them loyal to her but will soon learn that life does not work that way when faced with the glimpse of losing everything she had.
Whoever cast Nadia for this role deserves his or her flower 🌹; she embedded and ate the role without any scrubs. She will make you laugh with her way of throwing jabs at her staff. Like, who says their nose will file for a lawsuit lol 😂 because someone's breath is breeding terrorism? I will not want to spill much of the tea; I will leave you to watch by yourself.
Off Balance taught the viewers the importance of showing kindness to everyone around us, no matter who we are, our status, or the position we find ourselves in. Everyone deserves to be treated with kindness. Also, holding on to past pains and wrongs that some people might have done against us will do us no good but may hinder us from opening up our hearts again to the many goods the universe might have in store for us.
Madame Gate's story further reminds the viewers why we must forgive and let go of the wrongs done to us. Part one of the movie gives the viewers a satisfying ending with how Madame Gate was able to resolve her past trauma.
The co-star Unche Sonia also murdered her role, like the role was simply meant for her. She portrayed Clementine Sunday, a personal assistant to Madame Gate. The only PA who hasn't earned the wrath of Madame Gate just yet. Given how part one ended, I simply can't wait to see how part two will go, which, according to the channel, is coming soon. I hope they will tell us more about the past of Madame Gate.
If you are into Nigerian movies, or simply curious and like to start diving into Nigerian storylines, and you want something refreshing, interesting, and perfectly executed, you are going to enjoy Off Balance, I can assure you.
As for the rating, I will give the whole team 10/10, because their wardrobe, the cast, storyline, and delivery were all on point.
Below is the YouTube channel by Unchena Mbunabo, where you can watch Off Balance and more of their interesting movies.

I hardly watch a movie more than once but this one is the type I could watch twice or thrice hehe.
This will be all, guys. Have you seen the movie? If you do, let me know your thoughts in the comments section.
