Singapore army and NS movies, with a trailer and where to watch each. Streaming availability changes, so if a link is dead, search the title on JustWatch for the current source.

Ah Boys to Men

Jack Neo's comedy franchise about recruits going through BMT on Pulau Tekong. The most well-known NS movies, and the closest thing to a shared cultural reference for enlistees. Start here if you want a feel for basic military training before you go in.

Ah Boys to Men (2012)

The original. A spoiled recruit gets his act together through BMT.

Watch on Netflix or Prime Video.

Ah Boys to Men 2 (2013)

Picks up in BMT, more of the platoon's antics.

Watch on Netflix.

Ah Boys to Men 3: Frogmen (2015)

Follows the brutal training of the Naval Diving Unit. A look at one of the tougher vocations.

Watch on Netflix or mewatch.sg (turn off ad-blocker).

Ah Boys to Men 4 (2017)

The recruits return as NSmen for in-camp training.

Ah Girls Go Army

Jack Neo's female spin-off, told in two parts. Set in a fictional near-future where women are conscripted, it follows the first batch of female recruits through BMT. Same comedy formula as Ah Boys, from the female-recruit angle.

Ah Girls Go Army (2022)

The recruits report for BMT.

Watch on Netflix.

Ah Girls Go Army Again (2022)

The sequel, as they push toward their Basic Military Test.

Watch on Netflix.

Army Daze (1996)

A classic NS comedy based on Michael Chiang's play. Follows a group of recruits from very different backgrounds thrown together in the same bunk. Older than Ah Boys to Men, but the BMT and bunk-life experience is instantly recognisable.

Free on YouTube (full movie), also on Netflix.

Zombiepura (2018)

Singapore's first widescreen zombie film. A lazy reservist on guard duty has to survive when a virus turns his camp into zombies, teaming up with the commander he can't stand. Plays NS reservist life and camp tropes for laughs.

Free on Plex and Tubi (region permitting), or rent on Prime Video.

Every Singaporean Son (documentary)

Not a movie, but the most useful watch here. This is the official documentary series that follows real recruits through BMT on Pulau Tekong. It is shown to pre-enlistees, so it is the closest you get to seeing actual BMT before you enlist, without the comedy exaggeration. Later seasons cover SCS and other stages.

Free on YouTube. Watch the full series playlist (search for the season you want).
