The Lion Men (do the cast look 'special' to you?)

[Scrooball (clone)]

The Lion Men (2014)
PG 130 mins Comedy

Plot:

The film's plot centers on rival lion dance troupes in Singapore -- a liberal-looking faction of a traditional troupe, Tiger Crane (led by Wang Wei Liang), breaks away from it to form a new one called Storm Riders (led by Tosh Zhang), which advocates a new style of lion dance with more modern influences of hip hop dance and more flashy acrobatics. Meanwhile, the male stars of the show clash with a third rival troupe called Black Hawk, competing in wushu, love triangles and of course, lion dance. Five of the well-loved "Ah Boys To Men" cast headline the film, joined by 23 "unknowns".

Director:

Jack Neo

Cast:

Chen Tian Wen , Wang Wei Liang , Tosh Zhang , Noah Yap , Charlie Goh , Maxi Lim

The single redeeming factor is the female lead. But you are better off spending your money buying FHM magazine.

those guys from Ah Boys to Men all look shit to me. Jack Neo surely can find better-looking and no less promising new actors ? the female lead looks good enough, not fantastic though.

Initially. I wonder why Jack Neo who is a member of City Harvest Church would want to do something about Lion dance.

Even Pastor Kong and the pastors of CHC prayed and blessed the movie for Neo.

A friend who watched the movie says it topsy turvy the art of lion dance into a kind of robotic sci fi stuff n turned the traditonal lion dance into hip hop dances with a bunch of semi ah beng crews.

My friend conclusion is the movie is trying to kill traditional chinese culture and sowing confusion among the young. His advise is not to waste $$ to watch this stupid movie.

When I read Jack neo was coming up with a lion dance troupe movie I know it was going to be a copy of Taiwan's 2012 阵头

Has Jack Neo ever produced a good film that's original?

All his original movies are crass local productions that appeal to the lowest common denominator of tasteless Sinkies.

To Jack Neo, these Ah Bengs are machaim those bangla that paid $1.50/hr. Furthermore, he do not want any Ah Beng looks more handsome than him.
