The plot of Yoh! Bestie revolves around Thando, a lovable but unlucky-in-love protagonist, who’s forced to confront her emotions when her best friend returns with a fiancée. As Thando navigates this new dynamic, she’s faced with a mix of jealousy, friendship, and of course, romance. With a runtime of just 95 minutes, Johnny Barbuzano‘s direction keeps the pace light and breezy, making it an easy watch.

What we loved about Yoh! Bestie is the undeniable chemistry between the lead actors, particularly Katlego Lebogang and Kagiso Modupe. Their banter and comedic timing had me giggling out loud, and their performances were genuinely heartfelt. The movie’s lighthearted tone and stunning visuals also made it a treat to watch. As Thando would say, it’s all about embracing the beauty of relationships, and Yoh! Bestie does just that. The supporting cast, including Fikile Mthwalo and Siya Sepotekele, added to the movie’s humor and charm, making it a delightful watch.

However, what we didn’t love was the somewhat predictable plot and lack of depth in certain characters. At times, the story felt a bit rushed, and some scenes could have been fleshed out more. Additionally, with a TMDb rating of 6.25/10, it’s clear that Yoh! Bestie may not be perfect, but it’s still a fun, feel-good movie.

In the end, Yoh! Bestie is a sweet, if imperfect, romantic comedy that’s sure to put a smile on your face. With its talented cast, beautiful visuals, and lighthearted tone, it’s a great choice for a relaxing movie night. I’d give it a solid 7 out of 10 – it may not be the most memorable rom-com of the year, but it’s definitely a worthwhile watch. So grab some popcorn, get cozy, and enjoy the laughs and love that Yoh! Bestie has to offer!
