Charles Novia Blatantly Compares Omotola And Genevieve's Acting Skills

Popular Nollywood critic, Charles Novia is here again.

Charles Novia

The Nollywood actor and director, who is known for airing his blunt stance on issues among celebrities, politicians and issues in Nigeria has taken to His Facebook page to congratulate Omotola for her National Award honour which she received yesterday.

Omotola Jolade Ekeinde

Genevieve Nnaji

While doing so, the movie producer and opinionated writer Charles Novia compared Omotola and Genevieve’s acting skills, saying Omotola has more depth in acting than Genevieve.

Read below and see if you agree with him.

Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde is known to many. Her acting prowess is arguably in a class by itself and her being nominated as one of the world’s 100 most influential persons by TIME magazine a couple of years back must have paved the way for her present national recognition by the Federal Government.

Frankly speaking, I personally think she has more depth in acting than her ‘rival’ Genevieve Nnaji. I have worked with both of them in the past and also studied their acting styles. Omotola has the gift of role immersion.

She gives everything into her characters. There is an organic style of interpretation she is gifted with. Very few actors have that. She Is not a Method Actor, mind you but she has delivered roles which many method actors would give her a standing ovation for. 
Genevieve Nnaji, on the other hand, is a fantastic actress and a trend – setting one too who was first honoured by Mr President a couple of years ago. But she lacks the intrinsic ability to evolve artistically beyond her present heights in her career. That is my opinion.

There is an underlying stereotype in her interpretation of her roles in many of her movies; a linear aloofness and veiled disdain at the thought of being pushed further down the exploratory lane. Of course she has an uncanny screen presence which generally veils her artistic shortcomings when it comes to acting and between her and her rivals, she comes tops on the fan base list.

However, with an attitude which seems to say she has nothing more to prove, even the fans would become restless if new artistic exploits are not offered from her to which they can beat their chests. 
And for fans of both actresses, this is a professional review of their acting abilities and not an attempt to rekindle old rivalries. Somehow, this post on the National Honours dove tailed into their artistry. All well and good.

It would be recalled that just recently, the controversial Nollywood movie producer, who is known for being very outspoken and always sharing his opinion about almost every trending issue, reacted to the mavins ‘Dorobucci’ video, listing 10 things wrong with the video.
