The question now is,"Do you viewers even know what you really want?".
How open and receptive are you to new and fresh ideas?
You ask for new directions in storytelling,but when they come,you condemn.
I condemn if the movie is bad but if it is good and I enjoy it, I usually praise the movie. i don't see anything wrong with giving your opinion about a movie. we all have different taste. And just because a movie is different, doesn't mean it is good.

For example, I watched this movie a couple of months ago called "The Empire" with Fred Amata. I believe it was based in London. This movie was very different from what Nollywood usually puts out but I found the movie to be very dry. Sorry, I can't give a movie a pass because it is different.
