Admirable film.
It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
That's it. Just one long melodramatic karaoke video. Chaiwat is very handsome but looks alone cannot save his acting or this film. There are far too many interminably long sequences without dialogue featuring the lead actors standing around on different planes of existence looking lonely, supported only by a truly awful sappy orchestra of what I assume to be two circa 1983 Casio keyboards. The super long sequences are frequently followed by really short scenes that make the entire film feel like its hobbled. Lurching forward one moment and then stopping to find its balance.The score is unbearable. Seriously all I could think of was the bad stock videos they make for karaoke machines.I gave it a 2 because of Chaiwat's handsome face but that's all I can muster.DO NOT RECOMMEND.
I loved this movie! it makes one think about the characters and their situation. I was very moved by the rawness of the movie. I tried to place myself in their shoes but found i would have no clue as to what i would do. the story line is full of emotion and settings used are fe-nom! one is immersed into the city of Bangkok. slight spoiler! the ending is quite literally a mind-(insert here a very harsh word)... It made cry so hard!I am def. going to buy this movie so i can watch it with my bffs.love always, me! =]
I was initially impressed that this was a drama, considering most gay-themed films tend to be either campy comedies or soft-core porn, or, as in the majority of cases, both. This film tries SO hard to be so different, so serious, so relevant and so great that the film itself crumbles under its own weight.The biggest flaw to this film are its two lead characters. The heart of the story is their love for one another. However, that "love" felt completely forced and unnatural. The only way I can rationalize it is that Stockholm Syndrome developed. Really, the increasing attempts at showing how much these two characters love each other actually made me despise them even more. The characters just became whiny and pathetic and I couldn't sympathize with them. If I could the rest of the film may have been bearable...The second flaw to the film is melodrama overload. This is where the film becomes extremely pretentious. This director seems to be the type who thinks that piling on over-the-top drama nonstop is going to get the audience sobbing and love and praise the film. Much like with the relationship between the leads, the scenarios were contrived, forced and so melodramatic that its just annoying. It's not necessary, it makes no sense. With two already obnoxious lead characters, obnoxious melodrama doesn't make you sympathize with them. It makes you flabbergasted and makes you want to yell at the screen for the stupidity of the characters for being so, well, stupidly and unnaturally.The cinematography however was absolutely stunning, particularly the cloud/sky and weather shots. But I thought the Wong Kar-Wai-esquire saturated coloring was unnecessary and added more to the pretentious-level. The two lead actors were initially hot, but by mid-film any sex appeal vanished.Overall, the film is like that one person always desperate for attention so they constantly concoct completely over-the-top stories in which you know is a total fabrication in a lame attempt to get some attention. Probably best if you just watch it on free television on mute.
This is an excellently done film. The Acting is first rate. The direction, and editing were beautiful. Poj Amon's was not run of the mill. The delivery of the story had enough twist and turns to keep one interested, even though one had the feeling that the end had been pre-defined, it was not anticipated. The lead actors were out standing. Their portrayal of clan-destined lovers was well thought out and well acted. Even without an English translation, one developed an understanding of the story, it's characters, the inter-relationship between the main characters and the secondary characters.This is a must have movie for any serious collector or movie buff should have in their collection. Straight or Gay, it doesn't matter, because the story/movie is EXCELLENT
