You Stupid?

i just watched one of the best films in my life yesterday. you might sound shocked if i tell you that the movie is 'I Not Stupid Too'. yes, it is a really good/sad/entertaining/touching/educating....... (and the list goes on) movie. i was so surprised that the movie turn out to be such a blast! initally, i did not want to watch the movie because i thought that it was gonna be a very silly and ridiculous movie. well, seems like i had my prejudice.

like 'I Not Stupid', it revovles around the same student/family theme. only this time more refined and serious. the characters are actually secondary school students. the movie started with a young boy telling the audience how he felt about adults. he said that adults (parents) only knew how to nag their children and claim that the nagging is for their childrens' benefit. then the movie proceededs on to introduce the two main characters of the movie Tom and Chengcai. Tom is the young boy's older brother. their parents are those typical parents that neglect their children because they had to work twenty-four seven. Chengcai on the other hand, is from a poor single family, whose father only knew to how discipline him through physical abuse. both boys are classmates and good friends.

the movie then tells the conflicts that the boys went through. well, i don't wanna blog much on the conflicts because i don't wanna spoil anything for those of you who are going to watch the movie. i just want to say that the conflicts, though seem very normal but is very unique in a way. as in how the conflicts were resolved. the acting was not bad too. well, all in all, its an enjoyable movie for people from all walks of life and teaches us family virtues, compassion and how to ammend a sore relationship with the right 'key'. three cheers for jack neo!
