JUMP!


This afternoon my family went to watch this korean comic martial arts performance at the Esplanade Theatre. The ticket costs $38 per person, but it might not be worth its value since we were late by half an hour. We took a bus there, halfway through the journey my sisters needed to visit the toilet. So we alighted at suntec city bus-stop. There was a queue at the toilet and as there was a Comex 2009 computer exhibition/PC show going on, we had to push our way through the throng of visitors. After they were out, we hurried towards Marina Square. Being unfamiliar with the place, we asked for directions many times, wasted alot of time and waited very long for my very, extremely, slow, tortoiselike, draggy, dilly-dally father who sauntered behind us. As we were scurrying for the Theatre, my sister fell and bruised her leg. I was a little envious of her, as she got a free sweet from the Esplanade lady who tended to her abrasion.
JUMP tells the story of a Korean family well-versed in martial arts, including a crotchety grandfather. Some parts are hilarious, esp. the scene with two burglars break into their house. There are many showdowns on martial arts, acrobatic and gymnastic moves, as well as comic acting.
