Jump!

I only chose to watch this movie because it seem like a light hearted, funny movie that boasts superb dance moves. Not much expectation was held for it until Stephen Chau's name rolled in at the opening credits.

Oh.
This is a work of an accomplished producer and director.

Hope bar raises, then gets crushed quite horribly.

Halfway through the movie, I could already predict the ending, and I wasn't impressed by the dance scenes at all. Think of Step Up, think of take the lead, and these moves can only be an amateur's. Not much was being offered on screen, what with the cliche script and mediocre cinematography.

However, thanks to Stephen Chau's trademark style and joke, the movie was saved, and entered the safety zone. Together with the sort of movies you watch only once, just for the laugh and distraction.

The plot was fast- tracked, every event happening back to back but without placing much burden onto the viewer's mind.

But sometimes the simplest things remind you of the most important things. Though straightforward and naive, the message conveyed holds great meaning and influence unto our lives. Dreams. When was the last time I thought about it? Or even strived to achieve it? Just like how the girl wanted to become a dancer, which was near to impossible from the other's eyes, she persevered. Even though she was dead tired by the end of the day, she didn't give up. Even though she was ridiculed and looked down upon, she wanted to prove herself. These seem so surface, so innocent and stupid even when you hear about it yet when you really watch the movie, somehow beyond those sarcastic little laughs and comments you make, somewhere deep inside you feel some resonance.

It's time to move on!
