After being bombarded by all the facebook posts and local news about it (Overseas Singaporean), I though we should check out the movie.
Plot wise, it's pretty thin. But does capture the cultural aspect about the family is bigger than the self. How Asian families are superficially patriarchal but it is the matriarchs who decide and determine eveything.
It's worth it for the laughs and humour. It does capture the richer aspects of the Singapore lifestyle and the divide between the have and the havenots.
But as in my title, the one biggest flaw, for all wealth and money, the families have to use the local taxis to get to the airport. And they did not even splurge for the luxury version of the local taxis.
Or perhaps in the view of being a Singapore, has the COE gotten so high that nobody can afford to buy a car anymore?
