Local Production, 881

My whole family watched the movie '881' with compliments from Delsen's company. Thank you... We watched it separately on 2 different days though. All because of my darling nephew.. We can't bring him along so someone has to take care of him. Me and my siblings + spouses went on Tuesday. The theatre was packed, so packed that we were sitting at the 2nd row from the screen... I still remembered the last time I sat so front watching 'Lords of the Ring' in KL. My neck almost broke. The screen was so big and with so much actions, my head was literally moving from left to right, right to left.

Back to '881', the movie is a good. I personally like it A LOT! If you listen to hokkien songs, you will love it even more cos you can associate with the songs. There are both laughters and tears in the show. Towards the end of the movie, I was quite moved by it. So much so that I was tearing uncontrollably. I think it's worth the money to watch it in cinema, much so than some other 'always the same storyline' local productions. I will never watch those in a cinema cos I refuse to pay money for that!!

After the show, I was raving to my mum that she is so going to love the movie when she watches it and probably cries buckets too.. Hahaha... (If I can cry, my mum can cry even more and my sis will be the champion!!) She doesn't believe me... and truth be told, she came back satisfied. She went on Wednesday with my dad and aunt (while we look after our baobei). They love it too!!

I told my mum that I am so going to get my hands on the songs in the movie. Thought that means by getting the OST but I realized that the OST only has 2 tracks.. :( Most of the songs in the movie are sung by this 2 sisters. Heard that they will be cutting an album soon so maybe that's why the songs are not in the OST.. Will have to wait then...
