Netflix’s newest local drama-thriller movie ‘Collision’ takes the spotlight as our movie of the week.
Set in the dark, dingy underworld of Johannesburg, Collision cleverly tells the tale of South Africa’s post-apartheid socio-political climate, showcasing the impact freedom has on the nation and her citizens in a gripping way.
Directed by Fabien Martorell, the movie stars Vuyo Dabula, Langley Kirkwood and Tessa Jubber, as Bra Sol, Johan Greser and Diana Greser respectively, whose lives interlink in a fated twist of events.
The movie offers a confusing plot and you keep thinking at one point the movie will get better, but it just goes to prove this is not a solid ‘must-watch’ thriller that paints a perfect picture of that era in South Africa. But props have to be given to Vuyo Dabula who is the sole cast making this movie a bit alive.
Playing Thando, Cecil and Nicki are Mpho Sebeng, Siphesihle Vazi and Zoey Sneedon, who have their own plans in place before things go haywire. Samke Makhoba and Pheello Kheto also star as a father-daughter duo who want the best for their futures, while Thamsanqa Booi plays Adze, a kind shop owner.
The movie is now streaming on Netflix.
