Friday, September 07, 2007 YTD i went 2 vivo city to watch 881------ must support local movies mah. 715 , lui ling ling and some Kotai singer came 2 . . . Pretty decent movie. Script is okay - very simple, with influences? from wuxia shows. Scenes are mostly well-choreographed, hokkien songs/dance segments are really good and mind you, i am not into hokkien songs or getai at all. However, the songs really blend into the movie and touches one's heart - esp the final scene. Great use of colours everywhere from costumes to stage design to lighting, making this a very vibrant, cheery (but not sleazy) movie. The dialogues are mostly in hokkien (again! but there are sub-titles), very "heartland". Great acting from Mindee Ong, Yann Yann (pregnant women from Singapore Dreaming fame), and 6-0-0, the getai veteran. I have brought my parents (who are getai fans) and grandma to watch this - and they really enjoyed the movie. Do bring the old folks at home to watch this movie if you have not or never bring them to the theatres. We don't get to find many movies like this which is really suited for them. Like what Royston said - he is making one movie which his grandmother could understand. Some song for your info bellow the tag box. . .. "One thing about Ships.. It doesn't matter where you are going.. What matters is deciding to get on.." Sailed at 1:35 PM  Freedom @ sea
