Kallang Roar: The Movie (2008)

Had low expectations but was pleasantly surprised. For one thing, I'm not a fan of football, nor any of the cast. But the debut feature by Cheng Ding An did get one thing right, IMHO, and that is giving the audience a story that they can care about. No doubt the acting and lines can get a little clumsy here and there, but overall this is pretty much a sweet and heartwarming drama about pursuing your dreams and achieving the seemingly hard to achieve goals in life. Lim Kay Siu pretty much anchors the story with a fiery and passionate performance. And the ra-ra moments don't come across as too heavy handed to me either.
