The main plot revolves around a group of army recruits in National Service in Singapore.[5] In conjunction with the Ministry of Defence's 2012 NS45 campaign,From Fathers to Sons,[6] it is meant to commemorate the 45th anniversary of Singapore's National Service.[7] Neo had wanted to shoot an army-themed film since his army days, but previously could not find a suitable chance to. Ah Boys to Men is the first local film to be released in two parts and the first to film in Pulau Tekong, as well as the first South-East Asian film to feature Dolby Atmos surround sound. The film's theme song, "Recruits' Anthem" was written and composed by one of the cast, Tosh Zhang.
The film consists of two cinematic parts, the first commercially released on November 8, 2012 and the second on February 1, 2013. It is the highest-grossing Singaporean film of all time, and has grossed over four times of its S$3 million budget. The film was released in DVD on January 25, 2013. Buoyed by audience demand, a third installment has been confirmed.
