Great Film overall
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
The movie is about Jan Dara, telling his childhood to manhood experiences under the roof of his own home. The cruelty of his father that lead him to hate him more as he grows old. Jan Dara's sexual experiences from her sister's nanny, mistress of his father who taught him well as the story progress. This movie is well told, superb cinematography!, excellent performance from the main characters in the movie. I must say that the flow of the story is well defined unlike the usual foreign movies I've seen. The so-called "erotic scenes" are subtle yet the passion is can be seen and felt. Gonna give this rate of 10 as the highest! worth it! never mind those critics who keep on saying that this movie is a crap! Well...I beg to disagree! Watch this, and find out for yourself...Bye.
The silly story is aimed at X-rate audiences, with phony "arty" treatment. The film has neither depth nor characterization. Everybody in the movie is doing hanky-panky without closing their doors, yet you don't see anything exciting. Emmanuelle series are a lot better. Save both your money and energy!
"Jan Dara" is another beautifully shot picture from Thailand's Nonzee Nimibutr. I liked his 1999 film "Nang nak" but "Jan Dara" is definitely an improvement. The classically beautiful camera work mixed with highly erotic scenes remind one of Annaud's "L'amant" - but "Jan Dara" has a more nostalgic look with lots of sepia colors in it. What strikes me is that there's not a single (important) character in this movie that is ugly. This is a movie full of gorgeous people. In "Nang Nak", the main actor was amazingly well built but had rotten teeth - here, everyone seems to be a model. I found myself especially enchanted by the the one who plays 17-year old Jan. This beauty of the actors and actresses perfectly fits the slightly artificial mood of the movie.I've talked about style. What about story? Well, that's not as rewarding. There are your typical family drama plots, the hate, the love - basically a soap opera. With lots of sex. Would I recommend it? Definitely, if you lov e lush settings and gorgeous people. I for one found myself having a nice time...Rating: 6/10
Rapes , incests , and of course curses, a boring and mentally unhealthy story about a series of love affairs under the same two roofs , it's in Thailand but you won't see much of the country and culture here... of course there are sex scenes but these are of course also boring
