Just Follow Law

Not as hilarious as his previous movies, but still have its very funny moments. Basically, poking at red tape, rules and work processes of government agencies. Fann Wong and Gurmit Singh are the main lead that threads the movie throughout.

Some funny scenes :
Writing emails is very common nowadays and it became CGI arrows flying around in the office which eventually became rockets ! "CC" is "Cover Ca Chng" and "BCC" is "Better Cover Ca Chng".

Fann Wong's mother commenting on her new plasma TV. "Ji eh dian si ki an zua ah ne pi, eh sai kua bo" "Ku Lui" "Jit Cheng, Neng Cheng ?". Then the installer reply "6k", "Wah, an zua ah ne kui, lai ping eh ang kong eh tiao chut lai si bo"

"The Goodest Plan" means, Good is "Ho", Gooder is "Jin Ho", so Goodest is "Si Bei Ho".

There is a this lady who worked in WSA which just have that right type of face to say "Can, you must write in, cc my boss, HR, Finance, etc. And it takes 3 working days" "Can, you must apply, photostat both side of your NRIC, with the application form and blah blah blah"

And of course the indian which had the perfect "Si San" face for the post of a security guard, he was fed up about following rules, not following rules and either follow or not follow do not work out for him. He eventually wheel-clamped a fire engine which parked in the VIP slots which was under his care.

Not forgetting, Fann Wong's mother again, after heeding Gurmit's friend advice to take up computer courses, she was very tech savvy in the end. Does internet banking, using a id of "Lau Zar Bo". And say "Learning this was nothing, she even has a blog at LauZarBo@blogspot.com !!!"

The story needs another element to lengthen it, Fann Wong which was Gurmit's boss switches their body after a car accident. This also allows each other to understand their jobs and realize that their family really care about them.
