Slay

Good concept but from the sound engineering to the poor story telling this was really a mess, Enhle looked and is too old to play that part and was mostly embarrassing, Amanda du-Pont is a good actress she shouldn't have accepted this role it was beneath her, The Aunt was good in closing this is just a horrible movie and a waste of funds and connection, making Movies and story telling from Africa a lame joke.

Right, well I had no idea what I was in for here, as I sat down to watch the 2021 movie titled "Slay", aside from it being labelled as a comedy. And the fact that I hadn't already seen the movie was enough to make me give the movie a chance.

Turns out that I was not in for a comedy. Not even by a long shot. There was absolutely nothing funny here, unless you consider being unable to comprehend the strange and heavy accent on the spoken English as being funny. Seriously, I had to turn on the English subtitles in order to fully understand the dialogue.

I have no idea what writers Sasa Nqabeni and Adze Ugah were trying to portray or convey here with the storyline they conjured up for "Slay". But it surely wasn't something that provided me with any level of entertainment. And truth be told, I gave up on the movie not even halfway through. And I am sort of amazed that two writers could collectively manage to write such a boring script and topping it off with characters that were so bland that you don't know where one character ended and the next began.

The acting in the movie was shoddy and dubious, and definitely reeked to high Heaven of it being an amateurish production.

"Slay" is not a movie that I would recommend you waste your time, money or effort on. And this is by no means a movie that I will be returning to at a later time to finish watching, as I simply have zero interest in the storyline or the characters.

My rating of director Adze Ugah's 2021 movie "Slay" lands on a generous two out of ten stars.

The out takes were the best part of this bad, very bad production.

Disappointed. Bad acting... story line needed a bit more than just what it was. The two house boys were sooo annoying...

This movie is full of Star actors but the production is so bad. I had to have my remote with me to control the audio as it was sometimes super high...sometimes very low. I am disappointed. The acting is very lousy. We can do better South Africa...this movie should have not even been approved by Netflix SA.
