Decide to meet fate just the two of them? Both have already decided to look socially "tolerable" for relationships with women, but true love is here, between them. Neither of them belong to the Filipino poor, JP has a shop and William is moving to Australia. Or that JP would move in with him?
The film is originally 75 minutes long. The copy on YT is "only" 60 minutes long - did the hand of the censor intervene? But I rate the original film and the actors. Where the full 75 min is is a mystery to me, but if you watch other copies and not the shortened one on YT, these lines contain the cut scenes. But it's more about the beauty of the male body, erotically, don't expect any porn, which adds even more value to the film.

I like historical Chinese films
I like historical Chinese films, spiced with a mystical and even fairy tale story and spiced with subtle BL relationships between the men of that time, and I want to thank you for the translation into Slovak. Here at gaytitulky.info, several such films are listed (China, Korea), but Han Zi Gao's film The Male Queen and The Untamed with a rating of 9.1 on MDL are missing here. Mermaid's Jade even boasts some minor BL scenes that I didn't even count on, apparently it got past Chinese censorship as a relationship between a minister and a mermaid (but it was a mermaid ha ha). Good acting, story a little rushed (but I don't mind at all) and a surprise ending that no one expects, with beautiful music and you can kind of guess the ending or rethink the story, which for me was the most amazing ending. For me, very beautiful, deep and I would like to watch it again sometime.Was this review helpful to you?
This Pinoy film is a bit different from the usual scheme of gay films
This Pinoy film is a bit different from the usual scheme of gay films from this East Asian archipelago. No poverty this time.And I can have a rather sugary Filipino pink gay book once in a while. I can look at a picture with a very simple story through Asian eyes and not be a critical European. But the end of the film is certain.
For the incidentally very decent processing (camera, editing), I deducted three out of ten points for the "shower" scenes, when the men were constantly showering in their briefs, while the Philippines is completely natural when it comes to eroticism and sex, a bit rougher erotic scenes and "fish" the kissing scene between Manny and Levi (fishy means when a straight actor is not capable of "normal" kissing with another man and just puckers his lips forward like a carp on dry land).
Overall, I'm happy with the pinoy fairy tale...

The beauty of the male body
I have to say that this short erotic film had only an average effect on me. It's not so much about the erotic scenes (or soft) as it is about the beauty of the male body and its partly artistic rendering of its presentation - in this case in the East Asian type of physique and processing. There isn't much dialogue, which is good for this type of film…I have to say that this short erotic film had only an average effect on me.

Very strange movie
Even now I can't recover from it ... the film raises so many questions and the viewer has many feelings and thinks about it ... The film is definitely not for everyone (many will definitely condemn it, on the contrary, I appreciate almost every film that touches of our otherness), but even though he is Asian, this time he is neither naive nor affected as an actor... STORY: in the first third of the plight of a boy who escaped from the dictatorial north and a girl originally from China, but of Korean origin, who are afraid return deportations, the second third completely different with no connection to the first - a young boy and a rich businessman and the third third - the fates of both boys intersect and ... ACTING PERFORMANCE: excellent, especially for all three male roles (I evaluate from an Asian point of view) SOUND: average , there is less musical component of undertones, apparently on purpose PROCESSING: refined, irritating, may even annoy many viewers (sometimes lengthy, out of focus, sometimes grainy, hand-held camera) OVERALL IMPRESSION: I am torn (disappointed by the end of the story, moved by the fate of the North Korean - after all, Jun could to defend at the end, but apparently he already gave up, I am surprised by the "beauty" of the rich businessman - in the love scene it is often hard to tell who is "young" and who is "old", he looks physically good), but overall a positive impression prevails, but at the same time and thoughts about the fate of thousands of such people in the south of the Korean peninsula.Was this review helpful to you?
Satisfaction
Nike from the 180 Degree Longitude Passes Through Us here in this series plays the character Jack, a shouted hidden gay, which both of the marital couple from the neighborhood, beautiful Aimee in the role of Tai and no less attractive Sympoš Boy as Palma. It was Palm and Tai that seemed to me the best in this series. The funny thing was that whatever the two men did (they grabbed their hand or wanted to kiss), always appeared in the door, window or room Palm's older son, even though it had its reasons and the older son also played it too Solidly. Overall, the plot, the plot was slightly dragged than other Club Friday series with LGBTQ+ themes, but satisfaction and most importantly .... Users in the Czech Republic receive an original translation into CZ, as in a few countries and connected episodes, not chewed.Was this review helpful to you?
Brutaly real
A two-and-a-half-hour Filipino film, and it's a blast. Anyone who likes dramatic stories will find something to their liking. And also an excellent concert of well-known Filipino actors (and very nice!!) in the main roles ... and in general, the first part - the prison part - was played very well by the other actors. Cruel, raw, real. Dirt, betrayal, violence. Friendship, feeling, tenderness, love. Dismemberment, death, hatred. So much goes into few films, only the child victims bothered me there, and therefore a step lower than the highest rating ... Very good, Rommel (Sid Lucero) and Esteban (Emilio Garcia) ... the film is absolutely BRUTALLY REAL, portrays life without embellishments in this island nation, which is also a Christian island in a sea of Islam and Buddhism, and that just got me, even though I'm more of a lover of romance and non-violence. And the fact that the film lacks a higher meaning is something we who want to understand Asian or Pinoy productions have to get used to, that's just the way it is ...Was this review helpful to you?
Beautiful experience!
I enjoyed the last episode of this series and I can say that the positive impressions outweighed me in the evaluation - beautiful main song by Jeff Satur and countless variations of the melodic line of the song during some scenes and very well played both main characters performed by young likeable actors Chapa and Green (who literally charmed me with his nature and the way he falls in love with the character of Nawee), also in the kissing scenes, finally the Thais proved that they can only want it from the creators. These impressions completely lagged the minor shortcomings, the accelerated story, and the need to realize that Nawee's character is mentally ill and not scolding and condemning her, like many on other world servers, to go with the "crowd." Very nice experience and I hope that Chapa and Green will ever see each other again (they shot a series of 12 nano-episodes Chapter of Green 2021 together in the total length of the series 11 min (!), But that can not be considered a series.Was this review helpful to you?

Málokdy se stane, že dvojka je stejně dobrá, jako jednička. Tady se to podařilo. A hlavně, že už tam ubylo těch drastických scén, i když se v časových vratkách připomínaly a i když je to erotický film, bylo mě vlastně hlavní postavy, která měla dvě jména, pořád líto ...

Ztřeštěná blbinka, která má na IMDb naprosto neuvěřitelné hodnocení, mi zezačátku nepřišla až tak zajímavá, se nakonec po "uzrání" vyloupla ve velmi solidní kousek a určitě nelituji času stráveného sledováním, bráno s nadsázkou a s herci, kteří jsou teď hvězdami seriálu Not Me a jsou párem i ve skutečném životě.

Dojemný snímek, vyrobený s maximální uctivou skromností, o přátelství, touze, lásce i utrpení a zasazený do korejské historie tak, že musíme pochopit i proč je konec takový a ne jiný. Má dušička pláče .Ty korejské klobouky z dynastie joseon jsou nádherným doplňkem tehdejšího stylu ...

In my opinion, Dearis Doll was the most handsome man among the participants, to the point where I felt sorry that he was changing such a beautiful face into a drag queen image, perhaps the Thai filmmakers noticed him as well, his success was making it to the finals, but there for more than the finals he did not have third place.
Natalia Pliacam - the winner, and this could probably only happen in Thailand. Natalia is of Chinese origin and is a coffin merchant and in civilian clothes he looks like an ugly fat bespectacled man and even older than he actually is (37). Maybe they would pick him up in the first round elsewhere. This competitor completely believed in himself and approached the competitions with logic and perspective in every round, and I couldn't even believe where the "something" in him came from.
Amadiva and Petchra - these two contestants impressed me with their warmth, creativity and elegance, and Meannie Minaj with Bunny Be Fly - I'm sorry for them that they were eliminated first, although they didn't have to, there was simply no clearly weaker contestant.
Morrigan - the controversial youngest contestant at eighteen had a tough time in a company that recognizes the older and more experienced, but still pushed through to the third round.
B Ella - a Thai elephant of larger dimensions, was the most humane competitor in the entire starting block and made it to the gates of the finals.
Jaja - this native Filipino was the least likable contestant for me, but that's just my impression, maybe it was just a tactic to hide behind a clown mask.
Annee Maywong - the most beautiful and elegant "woman", moreover, she could dance, fought for the victory with Natalya in the final until the last moment, but the jury was clear that only these two qualities are not enough, in my opinion both could have won.
P'Art took on the role of moderator and chief judge well, then led the entire final brilliantly, maybe he could use more smile, positivity and sometimes a different style of visage. For that, Pan Pan, the second permanent judge, was charming as a man and as a woman, and optimism emanated from him in all directions, just look on the net, what a beautiful man or a beautiful "woman" he is, and his performance at the beginning of the final was famous.

I love Thailand more and more, I can't see what I'm writing through tears and I raise the total "score" to ten.
Angela deserved to win, I think Kana could have been second because she is more versatile, she can sing while dancing, Kandy is great, but I missed something and she was very affected in the performance before the performance. Of the others, Bandit and Vanda appealed to me in particular.
Mom could learn, but the Americans can never achieve that (they are more austere, commissary, often make fun of the contestants). The atmosphere was unique, the judges are wonderful, they are not afraid to be what they are, the audience is great, as if everything fell from everyone (including me) in that cauldron and I perceived the beauty of the spirit, mystery, show, love....
31.5.2021 DRUHÁ SÉRIE
Thajsko čím dál víc miluji, přes slzy nevidím, co píšu a celkové "skóre" zvedám na rovných deset.
Angele si zasloužila vyhrát, Kana dle mě mohla být druhá, protože je všestrannější, umí zpívat během tance, Kandy skvělá, ale něco mi tam chybělo a byla u představení před vystoupením moc afektovaná. Z dalších mě oslovil především Bandit a Vanda.
Mama by se mohla učit, ale toho Američani nikdy nemohou dosáhnout (jsou více strozí, komisní, ze soutěžících si mnohdy dělají srandu). Ta atmosféra byla jedinečná, porotci nádherní, nebojí se být tím čím jsou, diváci skvělí, jakoby v tom kotli ze všech (i ze mě) všechno spadlo a já vnímal tu krásu ducha, mystery, show, lásky ....

Hodně depresivní film mě překvapil na poměry, kdy nejsem na toto téma z Taiwanu zvyklý. Plno alkoholu a opileckého otupění (matka, jakoby pomatený mladší syn Rat), cigaret, dále zdravotní postižení (prostitutka Ya Ba), nefunkční rodiny. Přesto herecké výkony byly dle mě asi tou nejsilnější stránkou filmu (už dříve vyjmenovaní, ale i starší syn Shanghe, Ren Shuo). Rovněž zvuk-hudba mi nevadil. Zpracování bylo pro mě nejhorší. Chápu, že tvůrci chtěli trošku "ztmavit" sexuální scénu mezi Shanghem a Shuem, ale takto ztmavených scén je ve filmu polovina až mě z toho bolely oči a tak si říkám, tento film příště už ne, max. jako ukázku velmi solidního herectví. Ve filmu se mluví taiwanskou čínštinou a ne mandarínštinou.
