Movie Review - 881

With the seventh lunar month beginning today, there couldn't be a better time for the show to hit the screens..while previous years have seen horror movies dominate the ghost month, this heartwarming getai movie is one to watch!

Getai translates to "Song stage", a performance that is put up during the Lunar Seventh Month or Hungry Ghost Festival for the unseens.. loud music and elaborate costumes are trademarks of this dying trade in our age of modernisation..

The movie shows us the lives of a pair of Getai singers wannabe and their journey through the ups-and-downs of life.. the powerful vocals of hokkien songs will get you humming along and the catchy tune is so easy to pick up..

Don't expect a social-drama and its hardly so.. the movie centers along some nonsense and endless humour from the crew..

Don't worry if you don't understand hokkien, but some basic knowledge will definitely help you laugh harder at the jokes

i'm sure this movie is going to start a wave of hokkien melodies among the youth and just wait before you hear ringtones around you blasting hokkien songs on the mrt and buses! Haha..

A MUST-WATCH this month!






Now where can i find a "Live" Getai to go to?
