Why these five words? Why see this movie?: I am a sucker for anything musical, so this film was right up my alley. It's the classic story of kids trying to make it in theater, only set in China. Instead of a kid from the Midwest making in a big city, it's a kid from a tiny village trying to make it. The idea of "making it" is totally universal and watching these kids try and make it is enjoyable. Also if you liked the tv show Fame or the musical Fame, you'll get a kick out of the Chinese adaption.
