To start off, the plot was very underwhelming, especially for a sci-fi movie. The synopsis is literally all the movie was, a family trying to survive in the basement after a nuclear bomb goes off.

The idea of the story was pretty solid, but since there wasn't much going on it was quite boring. There isn't a whole lot of the sci-fi aspect and more of the anti-climactic parts of living basement since the bomb went off. I don't think the storyline was horrible, it was just very anti-climactic. That could be a huge turn off for people since people normally like sci-fi movies with a lot of action or science based or even actual drama. If you were expecting a thriller sci-fi like movie, you won't find it here. The most interesting parts of the movie are when they take about their situation and what to do.

The acting and the cinematography was pretty good if I had to be perfectly honest. Again, the story is where this drama really lacked it, but everything else was pretty good. For a low budget film, it was not the worst thing I've seen. Only watch this if you are not looking for anything in particular and go in with no expectations. I personally give this movie an overall 7.0/10.

This is the first time I'm writing an actual review for a drama, so don't expect that much from this review.

Before I get into anything, if you're asking where to watch this series, it's on Netflix, but it's only available in Thailand. I had to use a VPN to watch this drama.

The drama itself I really enjoyed it. It was funny and in my opinion there wasn't too much of everything. The plot line was quite straightforward. It's about Lin and Due and they are actually aunty and nephew, but they were raised together. Due doesn't want Lin to have a boyfriend, so he does his best to intervene. (As, you can see the plot is pretty straightforward.) The casting was well put together. I think I might be a bit biased though because I've seen half of the casting in there before. Overall, I really do like this movie. If you are looking for an easy going movie and fun one, I recommend it.

The idea was there, but the plot wasn't

Before I get into anything, being perfectly honest I dropped and picked up this drama multiple times. I really was just pushing through because I knew Min Jae was in here.

The story is pretty straight forward. A detective named Cha Jung-Han takes in his niece and goes through single fatherhood.

The idea was there, the execution was not. It really is confusing what this drama is trying to be. At first it tries to be a family and comedy drama, but there seems like a weird side plot of romance. The romance didn't make any sense to me and how the main characters knew each other before was even more confusing. Everything just didn't flow or make sense and was so sudden. I also wanted to add, everything was so repetitive. That's why when something was added to the plot it felt so sudden. And there was a few plot holes.

I guess the redeeming factor of this drama was the acting. Everyone was pretty decent. I think if the plot was written better, it would compliment the actors and actresses a lot more and this drama would've been decent. The kids in this drama did pretty well too.

Would I rewatch this series? Not at all. This drama took me forever just to get through the first time. But was it decent? I think it was alright. It wasn't the worst. Personally, I'd give it a 6.0 or a 6.5 out of 10.

I'm not the best at doing reviews, so bare with me.

Story:
I really loved the plotline. I guess you can say it has your friends, enemies, lovers trope. In the first couple of episodes, you might not like Paeng. The summary is basically what it says, Paeng's parents die at the age of 15 and she's taken in by Arthit's family and they take care of her. Paeng caused problems (with reasoning in my opinion) and eventually kicked out of the house. I guess you could say she was a "trouble maker," but again she had her reasons that's why even though she gets on your nerves you like her. Six years later (I think), she finished college and is much more mature and eventually goes back and lives with Arthit's family because of Arthit's father's request. Arthit plays the push and pull type of game (in my opinion) and finds that he really does love Paeng, but she says she doesn't love him anymore. During all this, Paeng is trying to create her own rose business, and both Paeng and Arthit figure out how Paeng's were killed.

As you can see, a lot going on, but it is really addicting to watch. Normally these types of dramas can go a few different ways: being a mess, dragging on plots, or having fillers. This drama didn't really have any of that. I was always looking forward to the next episode because I really liked the pacing. Certain lakorns fail to get the pacing and plot right, but I can tell you they did this pretty well. It's actually been a while since a lakorn kept me this hooked, so I really recommend it if you have time.

Cast:
As always the cast did phenomenally well. Both Mark and Kao. Their chemistry was amazing, but that's to be expected. I really do love the rest of the cast as well. You can never go wrong with this type of casting line up. That's all I have to say about that.

Music:
Honestly, I absolutely love the OST. It was so good that I HAD TO put it onto my Thai music playlist. The song just puts you in a good mood that's why.

Overall:
Overall, I love this series. If I had time I would rewatch it. I did rewatch a few episodes and normally I don't do that. Again, if you have time, I would really recommend this series because each character was written pretty well and actually have a good and proper development.

Before I get into it, like most of the comments and reviews, if you are only watching this series for Pete and Kao and the BL part, I don't really recommend this series for you. Only watch this if you are interested in Sandee and Thada's story!

I decided to rewatch the series because I love Mild and Mek's chemistry. I'm glad I did. I am kind of obsessed with Sandee and Thada. The story itself isn't too crazy and complicated in my opinion. It's not too dramatic either. In my opinion it has the right amount of everything. It's as the synopsis says, Sandee and Thada both wake up naked in bed together not remembering the night before and they slowly figure out their true feelings for each other.

The other main couple Sanrak and Na, I wasn't that interested in their story. Even the second time around, I don't care for their story. No offense to Mook and Tao, I still love you guys. But their story line though, just felt a bit off. It couldn't keep my attention as much as Sandee and Thada's story.

I will say I think higher of this series more than how other people feel. Maybe because this movie is right up my ally. I love a good and simple romance series. There's a charm to this series that I love and I think that's why I decided to rewatched it and watch clips of the series.

I tried not to be biased when rating it. I think the series itself is a 9/10, but I did have to keep in mind that there are people that might not like it that much , so I gave it a overall of 8.5/10.

I don't really care for this movie that much, but it is good.

Story:
The story was okay. I don't really care for it. The romance was pretty straight forward. The girl fell in love with the older dude and he's done things he's never done before. Turns out they are connected through the dude's ex-girlfriend that past away. There isn't that much going on and the story is pretty predictable. Even the plot twist I saw that coming from the beginning of the movie about the girls heart transplant. I will say the plot line of this movie could be more developed because nothing actually happened.

Acting/Cast:
The casting was okay as well. They executed the movie well. There isn't really exciting about the cast though. I knew the two main leads from previous dramas so I knew this movie was going to be watchable.

Overall:
I know I myself didn't care for this movie. I'm probably giving this movie more credit than I really think tbh. I only really watched it because it was on my list for a while. If you are looking for a movie and if you are bored this movie is there.

Wake Up Ladies Season 2: Very Complicated

To start off, I will say some people might not like this season compared to the first one, but honestly, I feel like there were more messages in this season compared to the previous one (I will get into that). I would also like to add, I might ramble a little bit because I have lots of thoughts on this series.

Story:
The series picks up where last season left off. All the returning main cast along with new faces. The new faces (that played a big part) were Lookmai, Jeff, Piengkwan, and Miriam. You might like these new faces or not, in my opinion though, I liked all of them. They all added something in my opinion. Lookmai was pretty rude (with the whole using her friend's house), but her and Jeff's storyline added that reckless young adult hookup culture. Someone wants to try everything, but always getting herself tangled (and others) up in them. Piengkwan was the villain of the series. The one I guess to get the plot moving. Honestly, without her, there wouldn't be a season 2. She did some bad stuff, but again, without her, a lot of the characters wouldn't have developed. Now I know most people wish Miriam stayed the entire series, but I think it's important to look at the type of a person it is rather than wanting a more GL storyline. Loved her, but then I realized her relationship with Aoey was a bit controlling and suffocating.

If you haven't watched the series yet I'm about to spoil that part (a bit more). If you don't want this to be spoiled, skip this part of the review. Basically, Aoey started dating this woman named Miriam and their relationship didn't make it that far in the series. Personally, I wish they didn't break up, but it made sense why they did. First off it was Aoey's first time dating a woman and it was a bit of a controlling relationship at that, so their relationship ended. I will say they didn't do the GL plotline justice in this series.

For most of the series, it lived up to its name, being very complicated. There were 4 main messages with this season: family, friendship, relationships, and happiness. I think people need to realize at the end of the day, life is about people coming in and out of our lives. We might not like how some people leave, but at the end of the day, we have to learn from it and move forward. This series was really just about life and doing what makes us happy.

Cast:
As always the cast did a phenomenal job. I could feel every emotion, especially Kluay's. Also, I think we can all agree that for a rookie actor, Luke did amazing. I never actually seen Luke act before this series (even though I've known about him for a long time). His pairing with Jane was really adorable.

There isn't really that much to say about the cast other than they went beyond my expectations with this season.

Overall:
I loved the first season a lot, but I feel like there were so much more messages in this season. In the first season, it just felt like the daily lives of a group of friends, but in this season there were messages that made me think about my own life. There are good moments, bad, and tragic. I guess you can say there was more structure to the storyline than the first season. Overall I give it an 8.5/10, but I might be biased since this is one of my favorite series with my favorite casting.

I was only able to watch the BL cut on GCINEE. It was only parts that were actually subbed. I liked the story, but I feel like the execution could've been better. At the same time, the way it's written makes sense. I just felt so bad for Suea throughout the entire series. He was basically forced to come out and when he did come out even more problems began to roll in. Everyone pissed me off, except Suea (and maybe Year, but she's not really in the BL cut so I don't really know if I would actually like her). I felt like Suea was just being toyed with and no one actually cared about him. They just wanted him, it kind of felt like if they had Suea, they were winning whatever jealousy game they were playing. The ending was bittersweet, I really wish it never ended like that, but it did.

I think the drama could've been better and the music/song choice might've been the one of the factors why I didn't like this drama that much. The music choice was pretty much only sad or dramatic music. There were parts where I thought weren't as sad or dramatic, but the music played and it threw me off. It made me think it was a really bad situation, when in actuality the atmosphere isn't a depressing nor totally happy scene. Like when Rob and Suea were having their moments and Suea basically coming out to Rob, the music made it seem like it was bad. It could be just me that thought that though.

As for the acting and casting, I think the actors and actresses pulled off their characters really well. So well, that I got pissed off at their characters. If you'd ask me if this was good enough to rewatch, I'd say no. I really didn't care for this series that much.
