Jack Neo

After watching so many of Jack Neo's films, I realised that Jack Neo is the leader of Singapore's movies. As a director, I feel that he completely understands Singaporeans. He knows how they feel. In I Not Stupid Too, the teenagers said,"Parents always expect us to listen to what they are saying. But they don't bother if we understand what they are saying. When eating, they can use their handphones, but they said we cannot do so because it is unhealthy for us. Then they gave excuses that they are having an important call." In other shows, like The Best Bet, the show is about addiction to gambling. All these situations are common in today's society. And as a director, I feel that Jack Neo has done a very good job in directing such movies. Because it touches the hearts of Singaporeans, and the director actually understands what they are going through. I feel that Jack Neo is a really outstanding director. Because, among local directors, I am sure he is one of the directors whose movies produce more profit. Just go to a cinema, you see those movies by Hollywood actors, caucasians. But Jack Neo's movies are local, but it also attracts many Singaporeans to go and watch. People often say that Singaporean movies are not good, because there is no "standard". But I think otherwise. They were probably referring to the lack of "big bombs" and good language standard. But Singapore is a multi-racial country, and it is a safe country too. Jack Neo's movies perfectly depicts Singapore as this kind of country, and humour and moral values are included in his movies. I have to say, Jack Neo will make a good ambassador for Singapore, through his movies. Because it shows that Singapore is a special and outstanding country, with different cultures.
