Synopsis:
Uncle Chuan is an old-fashioned and conservative man staying alone in Cameron Highlands leading a lonely retired life. His only hope is to reunite with his only daughter Ah Bee who will be returning from overseas after graduation and stay together as a traditional family. Finally Ah Bee came back after graduation but she brought back her foreign boyfriend Benji with her and they planned to get married. Uncle Chuan vigorously opposed to the marriage due to Ben’s frivolous behaviour but he failed to change his daughter’s mind. At the end, Uncle Chuan agreed to their marriage reluctantly, with a condition to be fulfilled- their wedding ceremony must be a Chinese ceremony. According to the Chinese culture, son-in-law Benji is obliged to deliver the wedding invitations together with the father-in-law. To realise a promise of young age, Uncle Chuan decided to invite all his 11 ex-primary classmates that are now located all over Malaysia to attend the daughter’s wedding. He has planned a route map to visit all these ex-classmates in order to hand them the invitation card in person. Benji has agreed with the task but insisted to travel in his motorcycle. Without much choice, the journey of a long distance road travel of Uncle Chuan accompanied by Benji kicked started unwillingly.

My Comments: I was at GSC Tropicana City Mall to catch our 2nd Chinese New Year film today and also in line to visit the Chinese New Year Decorations over there as well. This movie is the most highly anticipated movie as many of the bloggers and my friends gave a great review towards this movie. They said that this movie is a truly Malaysian local movie which gives its audiences a lot of moral values in which we must start practice to respect the older people. This movie concentrates on a drama type which is very good and well written script. Directed by one of our local best director Chiu Keng Guan which in previous years had done superbly well on the movie Tiger Wohoo and The Great Day which features tonnes of Astro Presenters. He is back again and this time with a stronger storyline and also there's some jokes that you can laugh at as well. If you notice this time, in this movie there's a 95% of new actor/actress who did not acted before are featured in this movie and it's a brave step taken by Director Chiu and guess what it paid off handsomely.
Overall, the actor and actress like Ben Andrew Pfeiffer, Lee Sai Peng, Joanne Yew Hong Im did a very great job and it's a huge success for all of them. A loud of applause for them. This movie is filmed in many states including Penang, Ipoh, Melaka, N.Sembilan and Johor and the best scenes comes from Cameron Highlands where Director Chiu had taken a great view there and I'm impressed too. As ME & Kimmy had watched this movie and we are in tears as this movie is truly wonderful in every aspects and I do love Uncle Chuan (Lee Sai Peng) as he did a very great job since his first time acting as in this movie he is a funny man when he jokes and when he's serious he meant serious! Why wait? I would strongly recommend you to watch this movie and it's suitable for the whole family to watch it. One of the best Chinese New Year local production that you must watch. Enjoy! MY RATING: 5/5 ; KIMMY RATING: 5/5
