Savage Beauty caught me off guard! I never expected to be so captivated by a series of South African origin, but Savage Beauty is it!
The plot is very plausible and baked just right. Revenge is the key, with a Dynasty-like vibe; set in South Africa. There is nothing second rate about the visuals and the opulence. Add to that a certain continuous level of suspense and the addiction to the show is accomplished.
The actors are amazing. They maintain their characters, however you keep on believing that maybe, just maybe they will change, but they never do. For love, For money, For power... As situations pull on them to change, they become more engrained in how their respective objectives must be accomplished... a new way... no... in the same devious, or noble-devious manner. Depending, of course, on which side of the fence you're on.
Looking forward to season 2. Not sure if there is enough material for a season 3, but I definitely need some "closure".
Savage Beauty hooked me!
Looking for the roller coaster ride to finish what it started!

A big step up in terms of South African storytelling and production. Something different from the usual poverty, crime and HIV/AIDS and the way the vengeful storyline progresses is actually incredibly gripping and well captivated. Also excellent use of score, CMS and cinematography. Well done South Africa!
So in 2022 there were major films Savage Beauty would be mutilated in comparison to thrill and suspense! However in 2024, a lot of the shows being released in now are flat and boring nothing exciting, low budget, terrible acting, with zero riveting corrupt family dynamics, and just have basic story lines. It was nice seeing fresh faces and explosive acting! PREDICTABLE ABSOLUTELY (in terms of whose the predator vs prey) but it has enough suspense in the character development to keep you engaged! Was devastated with the ending of Season 1 but Im a sucker for the downfall of elite families. A bit on the dramatic side and can have a few tones of soap opera but it does the job to keep you entertained. Disclaimer: watching this in 2024 vs 2022 MATTERS.
Zinhle Manzini (Rosemary Zimu), a gorgeous young woman, connives her way into the Bengu family's existence, one of the most powerful in the South African beauty industry, on a quest to ruin the family from within for their previous actions against her and her siblings.
In the South African film industry, Zimu is a breath of fresh air, and I love seeing young people take up the baton and run with it. Even if she lacked the depth and intensity that conveys her deep resentment of the Bhengu family in some scenes, I believe she gave a solid performance in her role as Zinhle.
Mpho Sebeng, who played Zinhle's brother Bonga Selepe, I was not a fan of as much as I expected I'd be, despite the fact that he gave one of the best performances of the series. His pronunciation of Sesotho words could have been better and it's something he could look on improving.
Veteran actors, Dumisani Bhembe (Don Bhengu) and Nthati Moshesh (Grace Bhengu) were also a marvel to watch. Their casting has to be the best thing for this series as they put on one of the most wonderful performances of their careers.
The Cinematography was brilliant, including the locations which gave the series the feel and look it needed.
Dumisani Bhembe (Don Bhengu) and Nthati Moshesh (Grace Bhengu), both veteran actors, were also amazing to witness. Their casting has to be the best thing for this series, as they deliver one of their best performances to date.
The cinematography, particularly the settings, was excellent, giving the series the mood and look it required.

A great guilty pleasure drama. It has all the necessary elements of lust, greed, intrigue, and revenge. It is refreshing to see a drama using African beauty standards as opposed to Western as the norm.
