10/10 interesting

I'm a fan of SnowMan's Mukai Koji, and this was my first time watching a Thai drama because he was starring in it.
Also, because it was a BL drama, I was quite nervous before it started, but my anxiety disappeared immediately. The story is interesting, the tempo is good, and it's very easy to watch. There are various elements scattered throughout, such as heart-pounding, comedy, and serious stories...it was so interesting that I couldn't stop watching.
The cold-hearted boss, which is not in Mukai Koji's public image, is a role I've been waiting for. And his facial expressions are amazing!
Every scene where he talks to his best friend, Fluke, at the restaurant, is so relaxing! The occasional Japanese words that pop up are also good.
It was my first time watching Thai actors act, but they all acted well. March was younger and cuter than I usually think, and his acting as a student was so different that I thought he was a different person...
There are some scenes that you don't often see in Japan, so I'm looking forward to it. It's filled with Thai tourist sites, food, and customs, as well as Japanese language and customs, so you can learn about Thai and Japanese culture.
I can't wait for the next episode!

10/10 Billkin & PP Deliver Again

10/10 Billkin & PP Deliver Again
This movie is absolutely hilarious and surprisingly beautiful too. I was laughing from start to finish! Even though it's a comedy, it has emotional depth and doesn't feel shallow at all. I didn't watch the original version since I usually stick with Thai shows, so I can't really compare the two.
Let's talk about the characters:
Billkin as Menn - He plays a straight guy who works as an undercover cop, but he's terrible at it. Every mission turns into a disaster, and his boss is constantly yelling at him.
Basically, he's a walking bad-luck magnet. One day, while walking in the park, he sees a red envelope and thinks it's an angpao (a money envelope), so he picks it up. That moment completely changes his life.
PP as Titi - His character is clearly a hopeless romantic. He is an openly gay and used to have a boyfriend, but sadly, the guy was just using him-for a condo, gifts, and who knows what else. Titi dreamed of getting married one day, but that all ended after his accident. To make it worse, his ex was basically scamming him the whole time.
I won't go into too much detail about their story to avoid spoilers. Some people say it's a BL, but honestly, I didn't really feel any romantic connection between Menn and Titi.
It felt more like a deep friendship or even a family-like bond.
We never really find out if Menn still has any family, since he's shown living alone. But what I really love is how he finds comfort and a sense of belonging with Titi's family. His dad and grandma treat Menn like he's one of their own, and that warmth really stood out to me. Although, I don't feel any romantic connection between Menn and Titi, the movie kept me entertained the whole time, and I liked how it ended-it felt realistic. No reincarnation or magical twist.
Acting-wise, everyone delivered their roles well especially Billkin who can't just play a serious role but he's definitely a versatile actor. The production value is also solid, you can tell they really put effort into it. The color grading was great, as well as the OST.

9/10 Tay: "its time to end game"

9/10 Tay: "its time to end game"
Namtan is a fiery seduisant charlatan. It was such a waste to portray Jos and her as half siblings. Their pair would look just as hot as competitive their characters are. Scriptwriters have employed plausible plots to weave the series indicating that they have done their homework. I loved the costumes, makeup, styling, locations, art and interiors. Color of frames and quality of scenes is appreciable. Story shows power struggle to gain a luxurious life. Every character seemed convincing except for Kapook who overdid than required.
The story unfolds its mystery element over the entangled affairs of the pawns in the game.
Foei-Mek was not appealing to me. Not in terms of their ability but demeanor. Twist in the plot occurs in the middle instead of the end. P'Jo must have been tagged 'god of dark drama' by now. This GMMTV in-house production depicts variety of people in their robust nature trying to survive in critical times especially roles portrayed by veterans. Tay is definitely a better actor who deserves more roles.

This series has exceptional story line, incredible acting and production. It's perfect! It's the best series I have watched from Thailand.
As a writer myself, I wish I could meet the writers and tell them how amazing their story is. I never expected so much plot twist and beautiful narration.
Other series I watched have shallow plot and focus mostly on romance between characters. However, this series is a perfect blend of fantasy with subtitle science fiction.
Also, Gun the actor for Dome is phenomenal. I love how he is able to act multiple characters in the same series. I loved his role in Not Me as well.
I'm really surprised no one has reviews this yet because of how amazing it is. I hope to see more amazing series like this one from Thailand.

I am deeply fascinated and inspired by the Chinese people.

It comes as no surprise how China, in less than a single generation, managed to transform itself from poverty into such a massive global economy. Of course, not everything is picture-perfect, but the people always are. Both male leads in this series are so outstanding that it is impossible to take your eyes off them. I also find the current rating a bit underrated, so I am giving it a full 10/10 across the board to make up for it.

I especially love the scene where Pei Qinghua cries in the taxi. This man is strong, hardworking, disciplined, and never gives up. He has dedicated himself completely, yet had to stumble and struggle so much. When he finally made it through, he was just incredibly overjoyed. At first, he cried only a little, but then it was as if he couldn't stop and ended up crying heavily, with his senior trying to comfort him in a funny way. The reason I love this scene is that I am a fan of Xiao Hou. I adore him so much in this role where he was made to look unhandsome, scruffy, and unfashionable, yet he remains highly eye-catching anyway. This way, people will finally see his talent shine ahead of his looks.

As for Wu Lei, he blends seamlessly and becomes one with his character. I find him perfectly sly and rebellious, doing everything with a strategic plan yet guided by his heart. Xiao Chuang changes Pei Qinghua's rigid decision-making, but that doesn't mean Pei Qinghua works any less hard; he is still as diligent as ever in checking his work. If a woman were to choose a partner, she would probably choose Pei Qinghua. However, in terms of catching one's eye, Xiao Chuang appears more captivating at first sight based on personality. In reality, Xiao Chuang is also a devoted lover, it is just that I prefer someone straightforward and comfortable to be with. Sorry, Xiao Chuang, you are just not my type.

10/10 Loving I Love a lot of you
This series is really catchy and the main leads chemistry is really really good. Nanon always deliver and have a good sense of grow when he acept to work on his characters. He is always so detail and here he is even more mature. Love it.
Mind is being a good surprise with her multi personalities. I like the plot and everything they do with the romantic and funny parts. Also, have some mistery around Sun and Sairung characters about their past and i can't wait to know more about it. All the cast is doing great and the ending song, sang by Nanon, the main lead, is beautiful as the MV too. I am really seat to watch what comes next.

9/10 Curiosity almost killed the cat

9/10 Curiosity almost killed the cat
An extended version of 'The Gifted' was launched because the previous attempt bought money. So just like M*RVEL, they keep selling till it no longer sells. If I remember correctly 'Mon' and 'Korn' along with 'Namtan' had wanted to quit their powers last season besides 'Pawaret's memories were erased yet here they are, uff...... 'Time' fighting for restoration of an unethical havoc in the curriculum made me smack my forehead (can you hear the thud?) in exasperation.
Production decided to introduce new faces just to complicate the story. Script writer incorporated a whole lot of genetics but failed to reason. Probably this theme was picked up from articles upon 'Unethical human experimentation during World War Il'. Hilariously, non consensual tests with mind altering waves on students is not even questioned by media and parents. However disturbing it sounds, it played a great plot, NNN was awarded for his heart wrenching performance in which. Anyways, an engrossing act with exceptional technicalities calls for cheers. Patrick was equally beaming (someone who can collide with NNN in terms of potential) If everyone gets to choose special abilities in a society full of inequality, the system mentioned as solution might end the world in chaos.
Do they still want to be 'The Gifted'??

THIS IS A WAKE UP CALL TO THE SOCIETY

Absolute Masterpiece! A Cathartic 10/10 RideTeach You a Lesson is officially one of the best dramas of the year. From the very first episode to the finale, it is a freaking awesome, high-octane ride that keeps you glued to the screen.The fight choreography is top-tier, and Kim Mu-yeol plays the role of Na Hwa-jin perfectly. Watching the Educational Rights Protection Bureau bypass all the red tape to deliver brutal, well-deserved justice to toxic parents and untouchable bullies is incredibly satisfying. It tackles real, heavy problems in the school system but wraps it in pure, cathartic action-comedy.If you haven't watched it yet, go stream it on Netflix immediately. An absolute 10 out of 10!

Family Action

This is a prime example of "Netflix and chill"—a mindless action comedy that isn't made to win awards but to entertain viewers. I am actually surprised to see that the quality of Korean movies on Netflix is steadily increasing. This movie is filled with many talented actors who light up the screen with their charisma and personality every time they appear. The director made a real effort to give everyone a chance to shine in their role. For me personally, the highlight was a gangster Rambo—I just laughed every time he was on screen.

The comedy mostly consists of silly gags. I could predict many of the jokes before they even happened, but they were still funny. I also liked the final action scene. Usually, the finale is just a generic shootout where the good guys are the last ones standing, but here it was made memorable with plenty of comedy. My only complaint is too many F bombs.

So, being a forgettable action comedy is actually a good thing in this case, because I'll be able to forget the movie and then enjoy it again on a repeat viewing.

10/10 Must watch

10/10 Must watch
One time watch series. At times I got bored too...but it didn't totally take away my interest in the story. To be honest I started watching this drama because of Nanon korapat.
Blacklist is for people who like lot's of mystery and twists. At the end of the series I got little confused about the story but my sister & my mother liked the story. I guess they understood it er.
I finished watching this series in the year 2020/21 I don't quite remember the story as it's been so long. I suddenly thought of writing reviews for all the movies/dramas I've seen so far.
Casting - 10/10 Story - 7.5/10 Nanon character name traffic is quite funny🤣🤣

LingOrm is back.... And with a big bang!

My thoughts on the first five minutes of IN LOVE FOREVER… I still ❤️❤️❤️ Lingling’s face. The way the light hits her, it’s like the cinematographer also has a crush, and honestly, valid.

Orm’s character, I hope she stays strong and doesn’t cry so much (like she did in TSOU and OY)… but knowing these two and the way they weaponize every single tear, I’m already stocking up on tissues.

Ling’s mother in TSOU was the gorgeous Um Apasiri Nitibhon; whoever was in that photograph in OY was beautiful too; her momster in ILF is something else! She didn’t just enter the scene, she oozed in like a slime-clad poison, leaving a trail of fiery fury and icy disappointment. I’m obsessed. Terrified. Deeply entertained.

But let me gather myself because I’ve now devoured the whole episode, and my heart is doing that wobbly, slightly over-steeped tea feeling — warm but dangerously close to bitter if things go wrong.

Episode 1 is promising, and the central conflict has me chewing on my own fist. We have Runch, a woman whose love for her wife is so pure it practically glows, yet her entire soul is tangled in barbed wire made of filial piety. That mother is an emotional maximum-security prison, and Runch keeps visiting voluntarily, bringing flowers. It’s not just “mum isn’t supportive”; it’s a full-blown, generational manipulation banquet where love is served in control-sized portions and Runch has been conditioned to ask for seconds. The “momster” vase drop was perfect because it shows she isn't s a cartoon villain — she’s the kind of mother who can shatter her daughter with a single, arched eyebrow; then make Runch thank her for the pain. I want to hug Runch and also gently shake her, whispering, “Babygirl, your duty does not require your destruction.”

Then we have Neen, the nepo baby wife from the open-minded family — and can I just say, how refreshing it is to see a family that treats their daughter’s marriage as a joy and not a scandal? Neen’s parents probably have a framed wedding photo next to the Buddha shelf, offering incense for the couple’s everlasting happiness. She’s been raised with love that expands, not love that contracts into obligation. Watching her beam at Runch, so ready to build a life while unknowingly competing with a phantom mother-in-law who keeps moving the goalposts, makes me both swoon and preemptively ache. The cheeky part of me adores that Neen’s sunshine energy is so powerful, it’s practically a supernova facing a black hole of mother-in-law doom. But the sentimental part sees her wide-eyed, hopeful smiles, and thinks, “Oh, sweet girl, you’re in a boxing ring with a velvet glove and you don’t even know you’re bleeding.”

The push and pull is so painfully real. Filial piety isn’t just obligation; for Runch, it’s identity. Saying “no” to that mother feels like cutting off her own roots, even if those roots are wrapped around her throat. And honest love with Neen is the oxygen she never knew she needed. When they’re together, Runch’s face softens into something that says, “This is the real me, the one you’ve watered into blooming.” I’m rooting so hard for that version of her to grab the steering wheel and never let go.

If Runch and Neen do get divorced, I’d be so sad. Not just a little sad, but “lying on the floor staring at the ceiling while the OST plays on loop” sad. I’m not exaggerating — the thought of Neen packing her things while Runch stands frozen in the doorway, her mother’s voice still echoing in her bones, would genuinely wreck me. This show has already planted a tiny seed of dread beneath the romance, because the title is In Love Forever, and we all know that forever in drama is bought with struggle and sometimes a devastating separation before the final sunrise. I need the writers to know I am emotionally fragile and will accept nothing less than true love winning. Let the monster be tamed or at least forced into a timeout corner. Let Runch choose herself, which means choosing Neen, and let their marriage be a stubborn, beautiful rebellion that says, “Love is not a debt you owe your parents.”

So yeah, after episode 1, I’m in. Cheekily I say: bring on the mother-daughter drama, because I love to suffer in gorgeous lighting. Warmheartedly I whisper: please, let these two hold on. The world is hard enough without Runch and Neen losing each other to a woman who weaponizes guilt like a samurai sword. True love, the kind that respects you, frees you, and makes you laugh even when you’re scared — that should win.

I’m lighting a candle, offering a snack to the drama gods, and sitting here ready to scream, cry, and cheer for all eleven episodes more. Let’s go, In Love Forever. Make it worth my tons of tears.

10/10 Nutty.... Night..... Nanon......

10/10 Nutty.... Night..... Nanon......
P'Jo has successfully pulled this comedy entertainer with a ladyboy character for Nanon. Plot remains true to its dark comedy theme of Midnight series. Nanon described his experience working on this set as experimentation of multiple roles. He looked breathtakingly gorgeous and irresistibly hot playing with the mic and pole respectively.
P'Godzi, Foei and 'Jennie are just adorable in their roles.
As usual coloring, styling and accessories, lighting, BGS mixing, script and locations are all tipsy, proving P'Jo excels in portraying night life. His stories are pretty close to reality and boldly talk of taboos. The only point lacking would be right editing of scenes. To crack up the audience you need perfect timing in comedy. Film did a good job in showing a clumsy and cute side of a laundry girl especially while the magazine flipped....

Funny movie

This was a fun, escapist watch. I especially liked how the balance of power kept switching from one person to another. The interactions between all the characters were so funny. The action scenes were so well-choreographed, and most were very funny as well, which was good for me, because action isn't exactly my favorite genre.

I had to score this lower because of the excessive cursing, which really bothers me - but if you aren't bothered by it, give this movie a try, because otherwise, it's quite enjoyable.

I do have to say, the cameo at the end really confused me. It seemed very random.
