Single Black Female 2: Simone's Revenge

While I have indeed watched the 2022 movie "Single Black Female", and not particularly liking it, I wasn't particularly in much of any rush to sit down and watch the 2024 sequel titled "Single Black Female 2: Simone's Revenge". However, given my love of movies, and the off chance that this movie might be worthwhile watching, then of course I opted to sit down and give it a fair chance.

Writers Sa'Rah Jones and Tessa Evelyn Scott return to write the script for the sequel, just as director returned to the director's role for the sequel. And that counts for something, I guess, if nothing else, then at least for a sense of continuity and familiarity with the previously established characters and preceding storyline.

The storyline in "Single Black Female 2: Simone's Revenge" is adequate. I was somewhat entertained by the narrative, though there were some massive plot holes throughout the course of the movie. But hey, it proved to be entertaining enough for what it turned out to be. Sure, I wasn't expecting an evening of Shakespearian theater when I sat down to watch "Single Black Female 2: Simone's Revenge".

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, nor do I actually remember whether or not the leading actresses were returning to reprise their characters from the first movie. Yeah, told you that the 2022 movie didn't really impress me much and thus left no lasting impression. The acting performances in "Single Black Female 2: Simone's Revenge" were fair.

Was "Single Black Female 2: Simone's Revenge" a good crime thriller? No, not particularly. It was watchable, sure, and tolerable for what it was, but it certainly isn't a movie that I would recommend you to rush out and get to watch. Nor is it a movie that will ever grace my screen a second time.

My rating of "Single Black Female 2: Simone's Revenge" lands on a four out of ten stars.

Just as bad like the first one also K. Michelle is beyond over the top in her moments,as though she's trying to be the shining star/lead.

The lead actress & her counterpart/half sibling was cast ok as lookalikes,unfortunately though acting which is a bit generic-But fitting for Lifetime.

Same type plot,clichés & more! Wasn't anything unique.. Well unless the part where the roommate was actually,wanting to help Simone & not just saving her life earlier in the movie.

Also for 3 years Grace/Simone had amnesia but within minutes of hearing Monica on tv,she just remembers and goes into being evil.. Oh and how can she be a sister in a uniform at a church just so easily,under the circumstances of being an amnesiac without any credentials.

Can tell there will be a dragged out part 3 due to a child birthed & put up for adoption,was introduced towards the end to her mother Simone.

Also why didn't Monica's friend explain what happened after she came to from being knocked out,so there was enough cause for possibly no jail.. I mean wasn't any tv cameras,security footage or even a phone rolling for proof,as that was the point of being there to trap Simone right? Ugh!
