everyone is so hyped about this movie, and if ur only focused on the humans, then yeah very entertaining. but i can't - i get that in most if not all Asian countries let alone whales - almost every kind of living creature, can and will end up on a food menu. so maybe cause of that, the travesty against a "mother and its child", ain't no big deal to anyone who has watched this. And YEAH Get that THIS is ONLY A MOVIE - still not for me.

as is this was one idiotic move after another, like Mo Hong Gap killing his subordinate cause he defended Jang Sa Jung, who's only fault was that he dared to voice his opinion, that contradicted the high commander.

then we have that f*cker that commanded the soldiers on the ship, carrying the seal. he is in the whales backyard and he feels affronted that the baby whale came up for air in the path of the ship?!? "oh what audacity". as if they're even a blimp on that creatures radar. of course the mother defended her baby. show me a mother who wouldn't?!?

from there the ball of idiocy just intensified. yeah there were funny bits and tried to ignore the anger and frustration. cause knew this sh*t would end up as a whale hunt.
even Yeo Wol "folded" after Mo Hong Gap's threat, all her talk about the whales being angels of the sea turning into B.S. - cause human life is worthier then an animals. can keep going but pretty sure whoever reads one of two line knows i didn't love this plot.

but have to say this - the end showing the baby still alive - what the f*ck was that?!? a sec before it was harpooned So Ma told Mo Hong Gap that is was a newborn, ain't no new born gonna survive alone without a mother in the vast ocean, with giant whites and load of other dangerous creatures swimming in the deep, not to mention the f*cking humans. plz that was a load of b.s.

not blaming the actors, everyone did a bang-up-job, but the story was SH*T!

cause this was made in Taiwan and as really enjoyed the HiStory series, had high expectation's and this fell short - i for one don't get anyone giving this high reviews - like yeah to each their own... but this plot had promise, but it didn't really develop to anything, and i felt that the actors also fell short -

first off Li Xiang just comes off as a stalker, he latches onto Xia Zhi the sec he sees him and just turns into his shadow - which i guess considering he already knows he is gay and is "struck by lightening" the sec he sees Xia Zhi... so i get it - u can't help who u r attracted too - but he is too forceful and i found it very uncomfortable to watch. plus (and here i donno if it was the translation that lacked) but Xia Zhi seems just naïve and very clueless - where his being brought to a gay bar, he is more worried if its age appropriate not even noticing that its only guys and what that means - so it felt like Li Xiang was manipulating the situation and Xia Zhi - and i didn't enjoy that feeling -

add to this Xu Chu and her crush on Xia Zhi, which isn't only mishandled but belittled and turned into a side joke by Li Xiang - which didn't make me like him anymore... if anything she was the one that handled the situation and the rejection like a mature adult, when she the same age as about both moron's.

and watching this what interested me more was Xu Yang- the kid that was being bullied and his side story - there was more there that held my interest and heart, then with what was going on with the leads - but everything was kinda rushed and wrapped up in the last episode - just cause it was the last episode and we needed a happy ending. it lacked logic or common sense and left me wondering WTF... this doesn't come close to being a good BL

all in all "ok" movie

first off - it wasn't hilarious, as i thought it would be (going by other commenters) maybe i don't get the Thai jargon or (Like in-house jokes that only a Thai person / Thai gay person would get) and yeah this was cute and had LGBTQ people in it, but to call this BL is far-fetched (in my opinion its a BL, when it involves the lead and of course his romantic interest - who is also a Boy. not the case here. well not specifically (again maybe i'm the one in the wrong, and enough that we got other gays character's to call this BL, what do i know)).

anyway didn't know it was a thing in Thailand for the parents to just promise their children (adult - i mean, young children i know it even exists in China and other countries where Buddhism exists) to the temple - as in, that they will get ordained (which can be only for a short period - it not for life?!?). that was weird to me - maybe it was exaggerated for the plot?
cause get that Nong's deceased mother was the one that made that "pledge" and cause he wasn't intending to keep it, he was gonna lose his life(?) punishment for not fulfilling that "promise". and then in come his friends(?) as First was crushing on him hard - even though there was no romantic angle in this movie - no matter how hard both First and Balloon tried XD (side note - Got that was "eliminated" a few min's into the movie - what they could afford that kickass wig, that even i was envious off, but no need for teeth??? why?????? like WTF?!?)

there were a lot of loveable character's like Aod, the Novice, First and Balloon. of course the lead, Nong - but the whole plot was a bit unconvincing. get that the producers relied on the audience focusing on the funny bits - and as read a lot of comments about how" hilarious this was" they succeeded. as there is even a 2nd movie. and yet i was bored - cause for me, it was like WTF is this really the plot - and these clueless moron's r gonna figure it out, while more experienced monks either ran away or were murdered?? k well whatever - it was ok - fine had a laugh or two. if i'm extremely bored might check-out the sequel.
