Forever Fever

Kung Fu meets disco in Singapore. Hock is a grocery clerk longing for a motorbike. He lives with his parents and sister; they idolize his younger brother, Beng, a medical student calling himself Leslie. Hock loves Bruce Lee; he works out and imitates his moves. When Hock sees a cheesy local version of "Saturday Night Fever," he gets the disco bug, taking his pal Mei to nightly lessons in hopes of winning a contest and buying the bike. He's blind to Mei's falling in love with him, and, at the last minute asks another woman to be his partner in the contest. Meanwhile, Beng reveals a personal secret to his family and a crisis ensues. Hock, Beng, Mei and her rival: it's Night Fever.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

This movie fits to the formula of the genre (i.e. disco dancing triumph of the underdogs) but the setting in Singapore and the local color makes it special. Engaging performances and solid production values. I prefer not to recount the plot since the plot is obvious and has few surprises. What makes it interesting it the location specific components - the local dialect was authentic (per my limited knowledge), the subplot with the transgender brother added poignancy. I find this especially interesting as an example of global culture - what starts out as a US cultural icon (in fact an urban east coast cultural moment) spreads not only through the US but worldwide. Who'd have thunk it?

I've seen many kind of dance movies but my favorite still have to be the old school dance moves. So most likely I would enjoy watching this movie. Such movies always have a great soundtrack and this film has it. With all the famous disco hit from 'Staying Alive' to 'That's The Way I Like It' to 'Kung Fu Fighting'. And not forgetting Singapore actor Adrian Pang playing the lead. This is going to be a good Disco movie.So the story goes, Hock(Pang) is a fan of Bruce Lee and works at a supermarket. One day he walks pass a shop and he sees a motorbike and instantly falls in love with it but all that is stopping him is the price. Soon Hock finds out about a dance competition and decides to join it. He goes for dance lesson with his friend, Mei(Tan).Hock meets another dancer, Julie(Francis), who manage to catch his attention and her boyfriend, Richard(Png) is the guy who flirts around with other girls. After a hard training and watching 'Saturday Night Fever' again and again. Hock is finally up for the competition but Richard will do anything to bring Hock down. Hock gives a great disco performance mixing disco moves with kung fu. This is one Singapore film you can't miss.As I said and I'll say it again. The soundtrack is brilliant. All the great disco classic what more can you ask for? The editing for the film is good. Plenty of fast cuts in the Disco scene and the mixing of the song is great. I like the scene where Hock and Julie are dancing in the dance studio with the fading transition. It is really well done. The camera work is good. They had plenty of good camera angles in the film. Especially in the dance scene. The lighting is kind of simple but good. Adrian Pang acting is for the role is quite good. Made me laugh a few times. He really bring the character to life. The art direction is worth the mention here. The costume and the set of the film are great. It really look like Singapore in the 80s.This is an enjoyable film that can be enjoyed by all age. If you enjoyed Saturday Night Fever, this is a must watch. A sequel to Saturday Night Fever. Well not really but it is a good sequel if it is one. Disco fans will love this film. That's the way ah-ha-ah-ha I like it ah-ha-ah-ha.

"That's the Way I Like It" is a flick which would never work on paper but manages to be thoroughly enjoyable on the silver screen. It's all about Hock (Pang), a Singapore store clerk who wants no more than to kick butt like Bruce Lee and own a motorcycle but meets a disco dancing hottie who convinces him there are better things to get into than motorbikes. Always fun, upbeat, and good natured, this little English language flick out of Singapore is a kind of "Enter the Dragon" meets "Saturday Night Fever" meets "All in the Family" colorful comedy drenched in nostalgic hit disco tunes. Fun stuff especially for anyone who has ever done the Hustle. (B)

I checked this out from the library - I figured, what the heck, it's free, and I'll get a campy laugh from it. But the movie is in fact sweet & affectionate. OK so the guy playing Travolta who walks off the screen looks nothing like him & is actually doing a slightly Southern accent. The lead actor (playing Hock) looks a lot like Bruce Lee and turns out to be a good dancer as well as great at kung fu. Nobody has yet mentioned a minor subplot, of the idolized older brother - a med student who needs money for a sex-change operation. The father disavows the med student son in anger. The 70s costumes are good fun and I like the kid sister character who's hooked on romance novels. It reminded me in a way of "Strictly Ballroom" (a much better Baz Lehrman film than "Moulin Rouge" BTW!) And everybody's speaking quite good English - no terrible dubbing! So check this one out & enjoy.
