要俾一個母語係廣東話嘅人檢查吓。

一齊去啦 has some sort of a wheedling tone to it, and sounds like something that would be said by a girlfriend to her boyfriend: "Won't you come with meee? Pretty pleeeaaase?"

This tone is, obviously, absent in the English sentence. =P For that reason, I'd suggest substituting the 啦 with an 吖, which has a more straightforward tone to it.

Also, since there's a final particle in the second sentence (一齊去吖), it would be a good idea to also throw in one in the first sentence to balance the 'weights' the two sentences carry. 呀 would be a good choice here.

→ 我哋去睇戲呀。一齊 [去] 吖。
