Left With an Empty Stomach

While OffGun chemistry is undeniable, this BL felt like a letdown after the high from Not Me, even if it is expected and even a welcomed change of pace to a more heartwarming story to fill the audience's time, the series just didn't seem the right pick for them, in my opinion they were completely miscasted as the characters of Ten and Prem.

Neo coming from Only Friends straight into Firefly's shoes, didn't feel right or organic, it would have been better if he was given a time to breathe between the characters, the same thing happened to Mark, but his character didn't have the same amount of screen time and neither did it give too much of a whiplash as seeing Neo go from narcisistic and sexual deviant Boston to repressed and quirky Firefly. Aungpao certainly came in strong filling in last minute in a role that requires a lot of charm from the actor, he is young and as a debut role did do a fine job, I'm curious what he will bring to the table in his next projects.

Some other characters felt like too much of a throwaway since there wasn't much to do with them, the grandmother being one that kind of disappeared in the middle of the story and only showed up in mention or to "be there". Changma was played by the handsome Victor Chatchchwit, so while I did like to see him on my screen, I did not understand the point of his character at all as the idol with an unrequired crush, a little bit Nurse Betty esque.

The story is sweet, with some unexpected drama, but nothing too hard to digest. The dishes looked delicious, I certainly would like my own copy of Prem's cooking book (if there isn't on GMM's shop, they are missing out), the antagonists are extremely annoying with a very unsatisfying ending. But overall, it is a happy-go-luck story to break OffGun's hiatus, because one thing that OffGun will do is work together as many times as possible, but it does not, neither it has to, bring anything new or challeging to their filmography. It's there just as much as Prem's grandmother is.
