This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Portia Hilton
Blistering performances.
Matylda Swan
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
Fatma Suarez
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Not dancing with the stars, although the performances are star-worthy. Good story, with several layers underneath all the disco dancing, which is very good. Singapore store clerk trying to win a local dance contest that will give him enough money to buy the motorbike of his longtime dreams. His family life is falling apart, and he attracts the attention of a dance rival, who'll stop at nothing to win the contest. This is not a new story, but the cultural differences and the Singapore location are enough to make it feel fresher. There's even a bit of a shout-out to Bollywood in the form of a dance instructor. If you like disco, or any kind of dance music, and 'Saturday Night Fever' has a special place in your heart, you will love this movie.

I've seen many kind of dance movies but my favorite still have to be the old school dance moves. So most likely I would enjoy watching this movie. Such movies always have a great soundtrack and this film has it. With all the famous disco hit from 'Staying Alive' to 'That's The Way I Like It' to 'Kung Fu Fighting'. And not forgetting Singapore actor Adrian Pang playing the lead. This is going to be a good Disco movie.So the story goes, Hock(Pang) is a fan of Bruce Lee and works at a supermarket. One day he walks pass a shop and he sees a motorbike and instantly falls in love with it but all that is stopping him is the price. Soon Hock finds out about a dance competition and decides to join it. He goes for dance lesson with his friend, Mei(Tan).Hock meets another dancer, Julie(Francis), who manage to catch his attention and her boyfriend, Richard(Png) is the guy who flirts around with other girls. After a hard training and watching 'Saturday Night Fever' again and again. Hock is finally up for the competition but Richard will do anything to bring Hock down. Hock gives a great disco performance mixing disco moves with kung fu. This is one Singapore film you can't miss.As I said and I'll say it again. The soundtrack is brilliant. All the great disco classic what more can you ask for? The editing for the film is good. Plenty of fast cuts in the Disco scene and the mixing of the song is great. I like the scene where Hock and Julie are dancing in the dance studio with the fading transition. It is really well done. The camera work is good. They had plenty of good camera angles in the film. Especially in the dance scene. The lighting is kind of simple but good. Adrian Pang acting is for the role is quite good. Made me laugh a few times. He really bring the character to life. The art direction is worth the mention here. The costume and the set of the film are great. It really look like Singapore in the 80s.This is an enjoyable film that can be enjoyed by all age. If you enjoyed Saturday Night Fever, this is a must watch. A sequel to Saturday Night Fever. Well not really but it is a good sequel if it is one. Disco fans will love this film. That's the way ah-ha-ah-ha I like it ah-ha-ah-ha.

i saw this movie over the summer. then i saw saturday night fever for class. while not an exact remake, there are a lot of similarities between the two films. the brother that becomes the family pariah. the disco contest. room decor. but there are a couple of crucial differences that make seeing this movie worthwhile. if nothing else, the kung fu fight scene performed in disco attire.

"That's the Way I Like it" or "Forever Fever" is a movie that makes me smile. It plays a lot like Saturday Night Fever, the music, the disco dance competition, and the hero changes dance partners along the way. But it isn't a parody of the movie just based in Singapore, instead I think it's just paying homage to the great film. This is really a feel good movie that makes you laugh, want to dance, and smile throughout ... except for this really moving and well acted scene with Hock's brother Leslie and his father. By the end you will be glad you saw a movie that made you smile... and find yourself saying, "Thats the way I like it." This movie is a simple story, that ask you to , 'Don't think ... feeeeeel' "Enter the Dragon. 1974"
