This is one of the very few movies that I would watch more than once and still enjoy it. Fairly predictable storyline, but it was saved by its great cast! Hilarious!
Some women can't wait to "adopt" the surname of their husbands-to-be ... like an award or achievement ... totally oblivious to the fact that in Australia, about 45-50% of the first marriages ended up in divorce. AND according to research, the divorce rate among those who eventually remarried is even higher. I'm not sure about the statistics for Singapore, but I'm pretty sure there are plenty of closet divorces (ok I just made up that term) i.e. couples who are living separate lives, but are still legally married.
A successful marriage requires a lot of hard work, trust, compromising, love, understanding and patience. "... and they live happily ever after" - such effortless union only exists in fairy tales. For those who are married, work hard! For those who are thinking of getting married, best of luck!
Finally for women whose husbands/boyfriends/partners have strayed:
"Don't get mad. Get everything."
Ivana Trump played the role of Ivana Trump in First Wives Club
