Semi-Soeter feels like an overlong mediocre sitcom, with tired jokes, generic characters, and little to surprise or delight us.

Semi-Soeter is some thin gruel for your comedy breakfast.

this movie is a comedy, and I would’ve treated all of this as a bunch of hilarious plot points if the underlying pro-life commentary wouldn’t have been so dangerous, dated, and regressive.

Rated: 1/5

At most passable Netflix RomCom in Africaans - there were a few laughs and it was dynamic, at least, but the villain in the story was just overly stupid and the whole affair was played with some earnestness, but very low-level intelectually.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

Rate:8/10 Semi could not get any sweeter. With a face full of nappies (not very clean ones FYI). The long overdue, highly anticipated sequel was worth the wait. The dynamic duo trade office boardrooms for nappies, a very screaming baby, a jackass who think he is hip and Chadrey herself. From start to finish the movie did not disappoint with laughs from beginning to end. Praises go out the entire cast, Anel and Nico, you made the movie even better bigger than the original while keeping it down to earth. Recommendation: with bucket full of popcorn and the kids all at the grandparents house. This is not worth a miss 😁

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
