~Worth Watching~

Delicious
—Have to give it up to Lawrence Adejumo for supplying different camera angles in such a tight elevator space; this made Stuck interesting rather than monotonous, plus we also felt stuck 😅
—Kemi Lala Akindoju (playing Chika) blew us away with her rendition. Unlike her previous films, in Stuck, she was so natural and relatable.
She was the one trying to find any possible solution to get out of the elevator, while Seun Ajayi was the irritating guy that could make one go crazy with his nonchalant attitude
—Stuck taught a very valuable lesson; so unfortunate we can’t say more than that to avoid ruining the suspense 😑
—A little goes a long way and Stuck was a good example of utilizing a small cast and minor locations to make something great
—Sound effects worked well to stir our emotions

Bland
Uzoamaka Aniunoh (playing the claustrophobic woman) could have given a stronger performance; she played it too safe
