Audience Member a midlife-crisis mee pok man... kay tong plays his broken/abusive role a bit too well. but i was totally unprepared for the unnecessary gore at the end. the dialogue (especially selvam's) is quite funny & nostalgia-inducing for those of us who miss singapore. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member poor script and direction, but 2 stars to Lim Kay Tong's acting. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Singaporean 'remake' of Taxi Driver, full of violence, swearing, crime and all the other things one never hears about when living there; admirable acting job by the actor playing the relatively fucked up lead character, especially given the poor writing and directing Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member At times I thought this movie would reach a very high level of film making, but it came up just a little bit short. While the acting was generally very good, some of the scenes were overacted and seemed over the top. Still overall a good movie, particularly when you are frustrated or in a bad mood. It captures that really well. DVD blurb compares it to the Taxi Driver and it has a similar feel to it. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the best, if not the best, Singapore movie ever made to me. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member I prefer the old Harry in Perth to the young Travis in Taxi Driver. Same plot, slightly tweaked, better directing. Guns are hard to get in most developed countries, but scenes like Perth's machete or Old Boy's hammer are welcome replacements. Singapore pidgin is interesting. If you liked Old Boy and Taxi Driver, you should love this lah. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
