19 SB MUSICAL : ' The Singing Escort '



' The Singing Escort '

Cast : Betty Ting Pei, Jimmy Lin Chong
Director : Inoue Umetsugu

Synopsis

Jimmy Lin Chong played as a pop singer who went Japan to locate the whereabouts of his boss’ daughter by means of one of her childhood photograph. Upon arrival at Japan, he was pursued by several girls : a local police chief’s daughter, a night club singer (played by Betty Ting Pei), a self-proclaimed missing daughter and his cousin… then the usual zany complications ensued …

Shot on location in Japan and under the direction of an expert in musical Inoue Umetsugu, this musical comedy is riddled with wonderful tunes and nifty dance steps … hmm … a ‘ 70s version of the current toe-tapping smash “ High School Musical “... lol … Jimmy Lin Chong is set to shake, rattle and roll his way into the heart of his fans … however not with his unique voice . A comical slapstick that will keep you noisy for the afternoon …

Rating : 2 ½ stars of 5
