Review of movie - I AM

According to Wikipedia, it's a biographical film on 32 SM Town K-pop artists on their journey to become the first Asian singers to stage their milestone SMTown Live '10 World Tour concert at Madison Square Garden in New York. The film was originally schedule for release in South Korea on 10 May 2010, but was postponed  to 21 June 2012, due to audio issues. The movie reflect the past, present and future of each artist with behind-the-scenes footage that follows the stars as they undergo rehearsals, revealing their day-to-day lives and also features interview, video diaries and never-seen-before archive files.

Due to Malaysia was not in the movie screening country list so I went to Singapore purposely just for this movie. And ya, if you're looking for something more than just a concert experience, I AM is one movie that you should not miss.
