大喜事 The Wedding Game

DC and I just couldn't wait for our missing ticket stubs to be found and we went with my sisters to watch this 贺年片. It is like a tradition to watch a movie during CNY... It felt like a fashion show and endorsement commercial flick more than a film. The plot was exaggerated, I felt that there was no point in bring the DJs and Singapore Team athletes to screen and Dennis Chew (周重庆)'s part was not funny at all loh. Luckily sis didn't bring ah Boy along, the content is definitely not suitable for kids. It's only bearable only. When we were on the cab home from new year visiting, the driver recommended Jack Neo's Love Matters strongly to us. Hmmm, wonder if that would be better?

A glorious, delightful and touching romantic comedy that unveils the truths behind the year’s most anticipated celebrity wedding, THE WEDDING GAME begins when Jack (Christopher Lee) publicly proposes to Vikki (Fann Wong) during the live telecast of a regional awards show. Surprised but happy, Vikki accepts – much to the delight of the public who has been following and rooting for the two superstars’ much publicized romance.

What the public doesn't know is that the entire love affair is an elaborate and meticulously planned ruse designed to further the careers and fortunes of the two ‘lovebirds’ by their ambitious managers May and Tom. In reality, Jack has disliked Vikki from the first day they met and vice versa!

But through it all, the two stars keep up with the charade. Both of them are sure they have nothing to lose – not when they’ve signed a pre-nuptial agreement to protect themselves and their fortunes.

Just when everything is going so well, an incident rattled some of the fans and the media. There is doubt now lingering about the authenticity of this love match.

Will they succeed in fooling a nation, and come away richer but not wiser?
