Needless to say that I had actually never heard about this 2022 Kenyan romantic comedy "Disconnect: The Wedding Planner" when I sat down to watch it here in 2023. Regardless of having heard about it or not, I believe in giving a a movie a fair chance, and thus I opted to sit down and watch this movie from director David 'Tosh' Gitonga.
The storyline in "Disconnect: The Wedding Planner", as written by Brian Ghettuba, fell very short of capturing my particular like and interest, and it was quite a struggle to sit through the narrative, as there was literally nothing interesting being offered from writer Brian Ghettuba, which left director David 'Tosh' Gitonga with nothing to bring to the screen.
Not only was the script and storyline in the movie dull and rather boring, but the character gallery was also a swing and a miss. And a combination of no solid script and one-dimensional characters hardly made for a good viewing experience.
I wasn't at all familiar with the cast ensemble in "Disconnect: The Wedding Planner", but it seemed that the actors and actresses on the screen had some talent, but they just weren't given anything worthwhile to work with in terms of script, characters or dialogue.
"Disconnect: The Wedding Planner" is a romantic comedy, well I found the movie to be lacking tremendously in both departments. So you're not in for a particularly outstanding, memorable or enjoyable 106 minutes, should you opt to sit down and watch this movie.
My rating of "Disconnect: The Wedding Planner" lands on a very generous three out of ten stars.
