That's the Way I Like It

A tale that's sweet-natured, funny and surprisingly touching.

It's a funny homage, a nod to the way that some movies are universal in their appeal.

A further dose of "been there/done that."

Writer- director Glen Goei, a London stage actor, ably guides his likable cast through this by-the-numbers story, but he is hobbled by the film's lifeless soundtrack.

There's something inherently funny and surreal about Chinese kids speaking Singlish while trying to be goombahs from Brooklyn.

Cute, but there's no movie here -- just a transcultural replication.

A wistful, humorous, but ultimately fluffy look at those halcyon days, before punk, junk, and the onslaught of the Eighties.
