papaya sisters


some of the papers i found had praised this movie which is a product of singapore...i admitted that for some malaysians...product from singapore might be just like another local product...which is always be as bad...well...for me...i think this movie is something unique...it is a musical show..just like hairspray..but the difference here is that the songs sang in the whole movie were mostly hokkien songs where hardly malaysians can understand that dialect...unlike hairspray...although the storyline is quite dull and slow moving...but i still appreciated the effort of the director to produce a musical movie...just like the western countries...at least they have give it a try and hence for this..i think they should be given a loud applause...as to produce a musical base movie required quite a big amount of money and last but not least the talent of people to act and at the same time to sing...where i supposed this is where the place malaysian stars lack off...the story started off with a narrator telling the story behind the happenings...as the movie went on...the narrator explained...the papaya sisters met each other during an open concert held at a football field...from there they get to know each other and decided to become stage singers...for those who know mandarin..it is call 'getaigeshou'...sooner and later...they are famous and during that time..their opponent the 'durian sisters'...was one of the famous group as well...thinking that papaya sisters will steal their fame...they had challenged the papaya sisters to have a competition with them and whoever failed will have to disappear from the stage singer business...with such an attractive offer...papaya sisters took up the challenge..in fact...little papaya was infected by cancer and she can't sustain for long in order to finish the competition...knowing that they will loose the competition...the papaya sisters decided to give their best before departing their beloved stage...will there be any miracle for little papaya?well...watch it to get the answer...
