Great Day Vs Homecoming (2011)

To those who only watched either Great Day or Homecoming and want to know whether should you watch the remaining one... Ok so let's summarized...



For Great Day, this is a very sentimental + a bit humor movie. To me, 70% sentimental and 30% humor. Sentimental in family issue where we should respect, take care, and love our parents when they are still around you. We watched it on 13th Jan itself and for your info, that is my birthday. Haha... I started crying at around 20 mins after the movie began. Hahaha... then stop and cried again.. and stop and cried again... till my eye was swollen and red. I really feel the importance of loving our parents and don't wait till it is too late. I really can relate my feelings and thats why I cried more than my bf :P But I don't mean that he can't feel anything la.. This is a MUST watch. I just feel that the ending part was a bit like "too simple ending". But like my bf said, "What ending you expect?" Hahahha... True also :P

That's all for Great Day, let's move on to Homecoming.


Homecoming, I would say 70% humor and 30% sentimental. Hahaha... I really laughed a lot.. Damn funny! :P This movie also brings very good morale to everyone to be a kind person, how to respect people, love your family, the importance of understanding in the family and also good hearted people will have good in return. At first I thought I will have difficulty to understand this Singapore movie as I am not good in Hokkien. But I was wrong.. In fact, they used more English and Cantonese, and also some Mandarin and Hokkien of course. So this make me even easier to understand the whole movie. So this is a good sign to all banana like me :P Hehe... MUST watch!! It will gives you a good laugh and make you a happier person for this coming CNY.

Therefore, in conclusion, make sure you watch BOTH!! One very sentimental for you to feel your love to your family... and one to make you happy and be a good and kind person.

P/S: Faster watch ya.. more good movies are coming...
