What I loved most: Visual effect is put into good use
What I really hated: No linkage between the 3 story and overusage of certain familiar scene from Money no enough 2
There are many significant improvement and it's seem like Jack Neo finally heard what his critics are saying.
1. No more obvious product placement like in Money No Enough
2. Special Visual Effect is no longer being over use. Special effects are there to tell a story and they are being put into good use. Computer generated graphics are much better than past movie of Jack neo's
3. Story line no longer "choppy" like in the past.
However, this is how I feel about the movie...
1. This ghost movie has no suspend... and not scary...
2. Created just a laughter from the audience... funny dialogues
3. 3rd story is a continuation from Money no enough 2. Not wise of doing so as some audience will feel that the director is running out of ideas
Overall, it's a average movie.
Watch UP, if you want something more serious...

What I loved most: Yan Yan's Acting
What I really hated: Every other things
Watch it only when you have nothing else to watch. Not even look like a Jack Neo Production.
The story slow, over acting in certain part, lame jokes and not funny. Don't waste your money on this!

What I loved most: Good storyline
What I really hated: Sudden insertion of musical at unexpected timing
This film remind me of Tsai Ming Liang's film.
Put it simply, not all people will enjoy this film. If you like to watch films that make you think, or you enjoy film with depth, then this film is for you. Else warning....
Other wise... great Singapore movie. I expect this film to go oversea!

What I loved most: The message about poorer than poor
What I really hated: CG (Computer Graphics) and Advertisments
Who would actually admit and face themselves when they actually saw who they really are, being shown in the big screen? 3 brothers, showing the different classes of Singaporeans, truly reflect Singapore society.
The fact that this movie not only touches on the issue of Money Not Enough, but also on the fact the tries to surface the ugly side of human, bring about discomfort to many.
This movie is really good for teenagers and young adults or people who are ready to start a family. It remind us about that we should be filial to our parents even in the course of pursuing our career success.
Overall, the movie succeed in the following areas,
1. Brought out the message of "Poorer than poor". Meaning other than pursuing money, we have to be aware of our moral values.
2. The acting is good. Lee Ming (The brothers' mother) acting is very good. She effectively make me shed a few tears. Mark Lee... I hope he'll continue to act such role rather than the sisi role he played in his last movie, Ah Long.. Henry Thia, still stumble upon his words but overall... his acting is good.
Overall the movie fails in the following areas
1. The advertisements in the movie... I understand "Money no enough"... but displaying more than 10 products (including air-con, mei zhen xiang, OCBC, some drinks...) in less than 30mins into the movie... isn't this a bit too much?
2. The CG. I always believe that CG is NOT important in a movie. Just take a look at Eric Khoo's "Be With Me". It's the story that count. If CG is needed, then it MUST BE realistic. Not second or even third class of CG.
3. Not much of creative camera works... very very TV style. Oh well... this is already a trend in Jack Neo's movie...
No, I didn't give this movie a 1 star or 2 star rating... because I believe everyone should go and watch this movie.
This movie is not just about money.If you are one of those who cannot face the reality of who you really are, this movie is not for you.
And of cos, if you still have not get use to Jack Neo's way of directing a movie, this movie is not for you too.

What I loved most: touching storyline
What I really hated: Qi yu wu look like a decoration .
watch it with my girlfriend. Really enjoy it. If you're looking for a movie to watch with your loveone, don't miss out this. And through this movie, it make me realized how beautiful Singapore can be! Unlike most other Singapore film who shot the "ungly side" of Singapore, such as coffee shop, dirty HDB estate, the leap years presented a clean and beautiful Singapore.
I'm not sure if this is a local production, or a joint production, but this is one romantic show you should not miss! Btw, if you have never enjoy romantic show, don't watch! It has a very slow storyline, you might not enjoy it.

What I loved most: Mark Lee
What I really hated: Poor storyboard, not able to carry the mood from 1 scene to another
I've decided to give our own local production another try even after reading many poor reviews of the movie.
I come to a conclusion that Jack Neo's movie has make some improvement over his previous movies. Better movie scene. Some good shots and improved picture quality. If you compare this with his early movie, indeed his movie has matured.
However do expect it to be a great movie with good story line. This movie is meant to make people laugh! So if you're looking for a serious movie, I strongly recommend you to watch other movies. This is not for you. Have you ever watch a comedy movie that's not LAME?
Perhaps only Jack Neo can produce that level of lameness...
And watch out Mark Lee... He's so good that it make me believe... maybe he's not acting?
