TL;DR – Tosh Zhang who played the role of ‘Sergeant Ong’ in the record-breaking ‘Ah Boys to Men’ movie series took to social media to celebrate the franchise’s success and slam “loser-ass haters”.

Watched the latest local production ‘Ah Girls Go Army’ AGGA yet?

Apparently, it’s done very, very well. 62-year-old Singaporean director Jack Neo put up a video on social media this week sharing that Ah Girls Go Army has made S$1.15 million at the box office. He also thanked his supporters and urged more to watch.

Hmm…

 

Starring Apple Chan, Glenn Yong, Yang Guang Ke Le, Belle Chua, Xixi Lim​​​​​​​, this is the 5th film in the Ah Boys To Men franchise. ‘Ah Girls Go Army’ is a comedy about women serving national service to protect the country.

Apparently, ‘Ah Girls Go Army’ was produced in record speed – in barely 2.5 months. Talk about Neo-style productivity!

As expected, just like his other movies, Neo’s ‘Ah Girls Go Army’ is packed with product placements. Ogawa, Livingcare and Nippon Paint… Just to name a few…

From the get-go, ‘Ah Girls Go Army’ has been making headlines. Some have slammed Neo for finding it funny to name Xixi Lim’s plus-sized recruit ‘Yuan Yuanyuan’ (‘Yuan’ = ‘Round’ in mandarin). The 33-year-old actress recently shot down criticisms that she was fat-shamed. Instead, she feels her character will give plus-sized women more confidence. Others have called it the “worst movie of 2022”.

Naysayers aside, what does it matter? Ka-ching! Within 3 days of opening, Neo’s ‘Ah Girls Go Army’ made S$1.15 million…You got to give it to that man lah!

Even Tosh Zhang who played the role of ‘Sergeant Ong’ in the record-breaking ‘Ah Boys to Men’ movie series took to social media to celebrate the franchise’s success and shunbian slam “loser-ass haters”.
