The Honeymoon is a 21st-century adventure comedy film that takes you on a journey of three best friends as they explore their successes, and downfalls throughout the film. Despite some dragging moments, the hilarious jokes kept me chuckling and jumping around my seat, especially Tumi's "Noks" character. Tumi is a natural and delivers her lines effortlessly that you could barely tell whether she even had a script.
The personal and friendship issues the ladies face are relatable, and the key lesson is that some people come into your life only to use you. The movie does an excellent job of portraying how the girls navigate their struggles and come out stronger. The character development is impressive, and it kept us invested in their journey.
Location plays a significant role in the film's success, with the beautiful tropical beaches and climate of Zanzibar being the key highlight. The stunning scenery perfectly complements the themes of adventure and self-discovery. The well-curated afrobeat soundtrack also adds to the Pan-African aspect of the film. The music elevates the viewing experience and immerses the audience in the vibrant culture of the location.
Overall, The Honeymoon is an enjoyable film that showcases the beauty of Africa while delivering a relatable and engaging story. The film highlights the importance of true friendship and the struggles that come with it. If you're looking for a feel-good movie with relatable characters and beautiful scenery, The Honeymoon is the perfect choice.

The Honeymoon, starring Minnie Dlamini, Tumi Morake, and Kajal Bagwandeen, falls far short of expectations, leaving audiences with an overwhelming sense of disappointment and frustration. In this review, we will delve into the various aspects of the film that contribute to its lackluster nature.
One of the most glaring issues with The Honeymoon lies in the performances of the cast members, particularly the three lead actresses. Regrettably, their acting skills are not up to par, delivering performances that can only be described as extremely horrible. It is difficult to comprehend how the director, producers, or anyone involved in the background team allowed such lackluster acting to make its way into the final product.
The plot and story line of The Honeymoon suffer from being excessively predictable right from the start. There are no surprises or twists to engage the audience, rendering the viewing experience monotonous and unexciting. The movie fails to capture the essence of humor, and its attempts at comedic moments fall flat. Ultimately, it leaves viewers feeling like they have wasted their time.
Adding to the disappointment is the film's unclear target audience. It is evident that The Honeymoon does not cater to the South African demographic, and its scenes feel like mere reenactments of generic romantic comedy movies from the past. The lack of originality and innovation further contribute to the film's downfall.
One cannot help but feel disheartened by the fact that South Africa boasts exceptional actors, actresses, and directors, yet a movie like The Honeymoon is being presented as a representation of our local film industry to the world. It is an unfortunate misrepresentation that fails to showcase the true talent and creativity that South Africa has to offer.
In conclusion, The Honeymoon is an absolute rubbish movie that should be avoided at all costs. It lacks the necessary elements to captivate and entertain its audience, leaving viewers empty and unsatisfied. As a representative of South Africa's film industry, it fails to meet the mark and ultimately disappoints.

I enjoyed every moment of this movie, from the beginning till the end. The actors and actresses were mostly perfect for their characters. I loved the story line as well because it has a lot of life lessons that a lot of people can relate to, whether is about friendship or relationships. I also loved the fact that it's proudly South African and the background music was mostly African hits. The theme of the movie was also perfect, from the costumes to the setting. They chose the perfect place to shoot it also such a beautiful landscape, very beautiful coastal views all throughout the movie. My favorite character is Noks, love her.
The love and unity amongst the besties is beyond sisterhood despite everything they have been through they were able to still put their friendship first, the ladies are always there for each other and besides this movie being a romcom i really admired their friendship and learned a lot from them.
The holiday to Zanzibar didn't turn out as well as expected but the ladies were able to pull through for each other and were able to enjoy despite everything that happened, this movie was interesting and my favourite was Noks, she was hilarious and Is a fast thinker, I would really watch this again..

Healing through sisterhood
Doubly boubly hilarious, wonderfully wholesome with superb writing & performances.
Kajal gave such a stunning performance. We see so many sides to her here including one that is heart-tuggingly relatable & galvanizing to the story core.
This is laughter beyond compare from many movies I've watched this year even the ones claiming to be comedies. The jokes are so fresh, so bold & so dastardly Dashing, you're never going to see it coming. Tumi Morake is a whole other planet of funny here.
Minnie Dlamini makes a smashing return to acting as the hearted cored to this wonderful trio. It is Mesmerizing.
Asanti Sane! KARIBU!
