How (not) to ...

Well I can't say what, but let's just say most of the things that happen here - so no pun intended. I am a sucker for movies like this one. "Funny" (it's a movie so do not get offended, I would not like to see anything like this happen in real life ... to anyone) and really cleverly written. Twisted and depraved at times (no prisoners taken) and probably unrealistic ... health wise that is) ... but filled with tension and edge of your seat stuff.

The movie is really something ... well I'd say special. If you like convenient things happening quite often - also there are flaws when it comes to logic or how stuff can happen (like leaving a building without anyone noticing, at the beginning of the movie, just try not to think about it ... at all) ... but the movie needs you to suspend your disbelief!

The ending is hanging! NOT a recommended movie!

The storyline is messy and confusing, with NO CLEAR ENDING!

The pace is ok, but it keeps pushing back from 3 days ago, 1 week ago, 3 months ago... and you need to "re-adjust" it back to current, else you will be confused!

It is an 18-rated movie, mainly because of the vulgar words, by Mark Lee Guo Huang (as expected), and some acceptable violence. I m ok with a certain level of vulgarity, BUT NOT too much like in this movie, which sounded over-done!

The movie goes around the relationships of 'father-and-son' and 'father-and-daughter'. Basically, there are 3 'sets' of the above relationships, and all of them suffer from some kind of sickness. I suppose the story is meant to be emotional and involving, BUT it failed badly, and it is NOT touching at all.

The movie involves a doctor, a lawyer, and a gangster. All of them murdered people, even with all kinds of fights and noises from the street to the clinic, but none of the Singaporeans saw it or reported it to the police. Weird!

The ending is hanging badly! Many things were not well addressed, e.g. What happened to the person who was murdered by Mark Lee and his dad? So what happened to the lawyer? When the movie ended, I asked myself.. "What had I just watched? What's going? So?"

I gave 3 out of 10. I am sorry that I do NOT know how to appreciate such a movie, which has NO HEAD and NO TAIL! I only remember the vulgarities by Mark Lee, and that's it!
