A waste of Singaporean talent

Gurmit Singh and co. can do so much better, and you know it.

The plot is about as predictable as it gets, with the underdogs winning, the arrogant snobs who typically get humiliated in the end and a love triangle which includes the cliche of the-one-for-was-right-there-all-along. It's all been done before, and too many times at that.

The acting is not much better, Robin Leong's character being particularly cringe-inducing with his overacting. The rest of the other, more talented actors were stifled by the poor script and as a result, the whole movie felt stilted even though it was supposed to be a comedy.

This is one Singaporean movie that belongs deep in the trenches of has-been land.
