  • Not as good as the book

    Unfortunately I read this book, which I enjoyed, and that made the film less enjoyable I imagine. The visuals however were great, and the story held attention. Morgan Freedman was as ever superb, and ou were able to root for Steven Dorf.

    All in all a moving story, and certainly worth viewing.

  • An excellently executed six-part series

    There is some good stuff coming out of South Africa and this is not an exception.

    It is clearly aimed at the teen and young adult market, despite some steamy intimate scenes that are tastefully executed. And I started watching the series expecting to "give in" after episode one or two, despite this I found myself glued to it.

    The plot lines are well written and the characters well portrayed by some of the most promising young actors I've seen. This stands on a par and above many similar series from USA and UK. Netfilx were intelligent in this acquisition and I am certain that series two and beyond will fare very well.

    I look forward not only in viewing series two but also seeing how these young talents fare in this merciless industry. Well done, definitely worth viewing!

  • Sex in the City in RSA

    Despite this being more of a woman's film I enjoyed it enough to watch from start to finish.

    A high production value, superb visuals, glossy, a metropolitan extravaganza! The performances are a believable fun filled journey showing another side of the affluent South Africa of today. A feel good roller coaster ride!

    I look forward to seeing what comes of of this slick production team in the future. Definitely worth viewing!
