Seriously Single

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.

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

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.

I enjoyed it. There were some good laughs. I liked how easily they spoke all the different languages, kinda cool! But over all the movie was pretty slow, pacing could be improved.

I also enjoyed the ending not being the classic film story-line.

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.
