Sense of Home Finale
Filmed entirely in New Zealand, the fourth and final episode of Sense of Home focuses on the trial and tribulations that Edmund Chen, Andrea De Cruz and their daughter face. After impressing during his overseas job stint, Edmund gets offered an extension to his job and readily accepts. This without first telling his wife, Andrea De Cruz, and his daughter. he eventually breaks the news to them but to his dismay, they disapprove.
During a road trip, Edmund and co. endure a couple more shouting matches, as well a near death experience. To their dismay, their car dies. Luckily for them, a good New Zealand samaritan (married to a Singaporean but unknownst to them at that time) turns up and offers a helping hand. They eventually make it out unschathed but still divided in their opinions of the future.
Eventually Andrea and daugther decide to return to Singapore with Edmund returning after 6 months.
My Review
Cast 9/10
Acting 8/10
Story 8/10
Overall 25/30
Great story depicting 4 unique scenarios. It would be unjust to say that the scearios were not original. The neutrality of the views presented can be challenged. After all in my opinion, Sense of Home aims to rekindle the ‘Homey’ feeling in Singaporeans. Three episodes show the cast members embarking for Singapore, the only exception being Stella and her mum staying in Budapest for a second chance at life there. Entertaining and a good watch, definitely better than boring serial dramas.
