It has been a while since I cried watching a movie. It depicts the nuances of familial relationships and mortality that I could highly relate to, surprisingly. The development of M's relationship with his grandmother was done beautifully. I enjoyed the quiet moments, the moments where they shared laughter and grew closer. I enjoyed the acting and cinematography so much, as well as the background music that accompanied the scenes. The story was written in such a way that imparted the importance of loving and caring for one's parents and relatives without being pretentious. I really liked the ending and it was nice to see that the whole family visited Ah Ma's grave during Qing Ming.
If you're keen on learning about different cultures, this film offers a fascinating glimpse into Thai traditions and is definitely worth watching.
I'm neither Thai nor Chinese, but I like this movie. You don't have to relate to the story to find this movie interesting, but if you enjoy learning about other cultures, you will likely appreciate it.
It presents a striking contrast between Asian and Western values. In many Asian cultures, there's an expectation for children to inherit from their parents, even if the parents aren't wealthy. In contrast, Western children often strive for independence and aren't as concerned about inheriting their parents' assets if their parents aren't rich.
The film also highlights how Asian cultures tend to prioritize caring for elderly parents over placing them in nursing homes, which is a common practice in the West. The storyline revolves around a grandchild's desire to claim their grandmother's inheritance, and the resolution is compelling as the grandchild ultimately learns that money isn't everything.
Unlike many Thai films that feature beautiful, often Westernized actors or plastic surgery-enhanced faces, this film presents actors who are authentically Thai, with natural performances. The settings are refreshingly unpolished, depicting messy homes and crowded spaces that add to the film's realism rather than the often overly artistic settings of other Asian films.
The film is a drama with a somewhat slow plot, so watching it on Netflix in installments might be more enjoyable to avoid boredom. Overall, it's a poignant exploration of cultural values and family dynamics, offering a genuine portrayal of Thai life.

Too complete the review : its a very touching story about a boy that lost his touch a little with his grandma.
When he hears she has not very long too live he makes a profound decision. He will live with her in her house. And helps her in her work struggles and with her disease.
Rest of the family also lost a little touch with her. But all is done with so much soul it affects your emotions a lot.
It is so ..... like everybody lives nowadays.
I will not tell any spoilers but go see this beautiful touching story.

I'm not Thai, but I watched this film in a Bangkok cinema with English subtitles.
I thought it was a comedy about everyone fighting for their grandma's fortune, but it ended up being an honest portrait of a family's journey through the death of a dying grandmother. Discovering differing dynamics of each sibling and the choices parents have to make to make sure their kids are well looked after long after their passing. The core subject is so relatable that it just awakens your heart and soul. There was no dry eye in the room, and I walked out, wanting to call my parents immediately. Could you bring a box of tissues when you see it?

"Touching, Tear-Jerking, yet Not Quite Tearful
This film pulls at your heartstrings, evoking a sense of nostalgia and sentimentality for everyone in the family. It strives to maintain a feel-good atmosphere without delving too deeply into melodrama or stress. With a strong Japanese drama influence, the mood and tone set by the score give the film a charming and pleasant feel, not overly sad. While some attempts at comedic relief may feel a bit unnecessary, overall, it strikes a balance that prevents it from plunging into overwhelming sadness. Nevertheless, there are still plenty of scenes that will bring tears to your eyes.
