My Comments: Today ME & Kimmy are both at 1 Utama to catch a movie as I am a big fan of Wayne Lai of TVB. We purposely choose this movie and we watch it at GSC 1 Utama. This movie starring the famous TVB actor Wayne Lai as well as Singaporean Henry Thia, Ah Nam and Malaysian Singer Karen Kong. This is a low budget movie to be exact and then I do not put high expectation on this movie. It talks about beggars who lived in the streets of Penang and how they survived and to tackle the Ah Long's in the street. The storyline is draggy and not up to the expectations. Personally I think only Wayne Lai did a very job in acting while others did not perform up to expectations. The movie was rather boring and not much action can be seen. I nearly slept while watching this movie but at least my idol Wayne Lai did cheer me up and without him in this movie, it would be a rubbish movie. I would not recommend you to watch this movie as it's boring and if you are a Wayne Lai fans, then you can have an option to support your idol. Enjoy! MY RATING: 3/5 ; KIMMY RATING: 3.5/5
