Extraordinary
I just watched 'Lahn Mah' today, and it's easily one of the best Thai films I've ever seen. There was a lot of fun(Actually, jokes are stunning, I heard many people laugh in the theater), sadness and touching in this film.This movie provided the mood and reality of being in Thai-Chinese families like the scene that throw flowers to the ancestors' graveyard, words that are using or celebrating Chinese New Year. Moreover, the acting was impressive. The reasons why I said that are the emotional depth that Billkin, Grandma and other casts give to understand their own characters. The smooth energy of their interactions throughout the movie creates a genuine familial atmosphere, making it feel like a real family dynamic on screen.
In addition, the inheritance fight among M(the protagonist), M's mom and 2 M's uncle adds another layer of complexity to the narrative which turns out M got the most but before that there's a fight to get the grandma's house and it made a question to the audience that will M get something for taking care of grandma?. This subplot not only adds depth to the characters' motivations but also reflects larger themes of tradition, obligation, and the complexities of family relationships.
On the other hand, it's worth noting that while the film's acting is impressive, the pacing of the proceedings may feel a bit brisk, particularly in terms of character development. Viewers may find themselves wanting more insight into the characters' backstories, especially the childhood experiences that shaped their personalities, or more time to understand the dynamics of their relationships before pivotal events unfold.
To conclude, 'Lahn Mah' is a film that shows both tears and laughter, showcasing heartfelt moments and a deep sense of love and care, especially between M and their grandmother. However, the pacing issues, particularly in character development, leave some room for improvement."
