While I have indeed watched the 2022 movie "Single Black Female", and not particularly liking it, I wasn't particularly in much of any rush to sit down and watch the 2024 sequel titled "Single Black Female 2: Simone's Revenge". However, given my love of movies, and the off chance that this movie might be worthwhile watching, then of course I opted to sit down and give it a fair chance.

Writers Sa'Rah Jones and Tessa Evelyn Scott return to write the script for the sequel, just as director returned to the director's role for the sequel. And that counts for something, I guess, if nothing else, then at least for a sense of continuity and familiarity with the previously established characters and preceding storyline.

The storyline in "Single Black Female 2: Simone's Revenge" is adequate. I was somewhat entertained by the narrative, though there were some massive plot holes throughout the course of the movie. But hey, it proved to be entertaining enough for what it turned out to be. Sure, I wasn't expecting an evening of Shakespearian theater when I sat down to watch "Single Black Female 2: Simone's Revenge".

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, nor do I actually remember whether or not the leading actresses were returning to reprise their characters from the first movie. Yeah, told you that the 2022 movie didn't really impress me much and thus left no lasting impression. The acting performances in "Single Black Female 2: Simone's Revenge" were fair.

Was "Single Black Female 2: Simone's Revenge" a good crime thriller? No, not particularly. It was watchable, sure, and tolerable for what it was, but it certainly isn't a movie that I would recommend you to rush out and get to watch. Nor is it a movie that will ever grace my screen a second time.

My rating of "Single Black Female 2: Simone's Revenge" lands on a four out of ten stars.
