Seriously Single

Just a fun movie to watch. I guess there was nothing new in this movie but still had me laughing.

First time watching South African movie! And the fashion was on point. So colourful! And I love being able to see and hear and just get to know South Africa.

Excusing the ignorant yet typical American, who thinks a clean English accent is some kind of american representation...this FULLY South African Cast and Production is another great attempt at a romcom. This is a relatively new genre for the South African film industry, and though there were a few cringe-worthy acting moments, the movie was refreshing, playful, and what is to be expected of your regular romcom.

There is space for improvement in regards to originality in script, though this is a problem we see in general across, all national film industries, so let's not pretend this is where this all started. Overplayed scenarios and cliches have become the bread and butter of Hollywood, though hopefully not so much Netflix. Looking forward to the more creative side of Lwazi Mvusi. Great attempt.

It's so sad to watch a movie about women so desperate for men that they disrespect themselves and others. We need movies about women's independence and empowerment, not desperation. This movie was a horrible disappointment.

First of all, a movie such as this usually falls somewhat outside of my preference of movies to watch. But I had the opportunity to sit down and watch it, and given the fact that I hadn't already seen it, I thought I might give the movie a chance, even without ever having heard of the movie prior to now.

Well, "Seriously Single" from writer Lwazi Mvusi happened to be a very straightforward, although very generic, romantic comedy, for better or worse. Of course there is a an audience out there for a sappy movie such as this. But yeah, it falls into the category of once-you've-seen-one-movie-like-this-you've-essentially-seen-them all. Yup, it was that much of a step-by-step manuscript of how-to-make-a-romcom.

The acting in the movie was adequate, taking into consideration the type of movie that it was, and the limitations of the script and storyline. I wasn't familiar with a single actress or actor in the movie, which was something that actually worked out well for me.

"Seriously Single" was adequately entertaining, although it was by no account an outstanding movie.

My rating of directors Katleho Ramaphakela and Rethabile Ramaphakela's movie is a bland and mediocre five out of ten stars.
