Hock, an ordinary underachiever, discovers disco when his favorite kung fu movie is replaced by "Forever Fever," a low-budget Saturday Night Fever (1977) knockoff. Amazingly, the movie's main character comes to life and becomes Hock's guardian angel.

An irresistibly sexy comedy set to a hot soundtrack of '70s dance hits, THAT'S THE WAY I LIKE IT offers a decidedly offbeat look at the fun, fashion, and flash of the disco culture. It's the hilarious story of Hock, an ordinary underachiever who discovers disco when his favorite kung fu movie is replaced by "Forever Fever," a low-budget Saturday Night Fever (1977) knockoff. In an outrageous turn of events, the movie's main character comes to life and decides to become Hock's guardian angel, teaching him all about life, love, and the power of disco. Filled with the catchy music and outrageous styles of the incomparable disco era -- you'll love the way this average guy rises above expectations ... with the help of a little shake, shake, shake.

Kung Fu meets disco in Singapore. Hock is a grocery clerk longing for a motorbike. He lives with his parents and sister; they idolize his younger brother, Beng, a medical student calling himself Leslie. Hock loves Bruce Lee; he works out and imitates his moves. When Hock sees a cheesy local version of "Saturday Night Fever," he gets the disco bug, taking his pal Mei to nightly lessons in hopes of winning a contest and buying the bike. He's blind to Mei's falling in love with him, and, at the last minute asks another woman to be his partner in the contest. Meanwhile, Beng reveals a personal secret to his family and a crisis ensues. Hock, Beng, Mei and her rival: it's Night Fever.—<[email protected]>
