Back in my hood today! Yup, I grew up on the east side of the island and this was mostly where I hung out with friends when I was still a teenager. So much has changed yet some things still remain the same, you know what I mean?
I am so glad at the cinema is still here after all these years and having so many Golden Village theatres in Singapore means we can easily hop from one to another if the first is full - which was what we did today because we heard that the Leap Day Special Sneak of Onward was selling out fast in GV VivoCity.
I remember during the days when I was working in the media industry, GV was my favourite client and right at that time, I already knew I was a movie buff who enjoyed watching nearly every new release. Well, it turns out that I now have three little movie buffs too and I am so thankful to have their company and happy to see how we all love a good show.
As for Onward, I have to say I didn't go in with much expectations because I don't remember much from the trailer we saw previously. My kids were definitely more excited than me but it still turned out that I was the only one who teared at the touching parts. Haha. Emo Mama as usual. But all of us did enjoy the movie from start to end and loved the plot, the humour and the surprise twists.
This is a show that revolves around the unwavering love between two brothers, talks about sacrifice, faith and determination, and reminds us that we all have magic in us and we just might not realise our hidden talents yet. I love the role that their Mum plays and how she is fearless when it comes to protecting her beloved sons - definitely a warrior in my eyes. We also found out about the star-studded cast behind the show - younger brother Ian is voiced by Tom Holland and elder brother Barley is Chris Pratt - and that got all of us feeling thrilled too.
Onward opens in cinemas on 5 March and is definitely a show worth watching. Go catch it at your nearest GV cinema next week! Thanks for having us at the preview today, @gvmovieclub!
P.S. We love our pretty shoes from @skecherssg!
