¿Asesinato? ¿Qué asesinato?

Other people on here say it's a dark comedy but it didn't amuse me in the slightest let alone make me laugh. I love dark comedy but this was just not in that category at all, it's just awful.

The acting is like something you'd see on a children's TV show, in fact it's far worse than anything I've seen on CBBC. I think the English dub adds to its poor quality but the over acting is atrocious, it's proper am-dram.

Once it was started I really wanted to make it to the end because other reviews on here say it's worth it. I ended up watching it on 1.5 speed but even at that it was hard to keep focus.

Maybe it's funny in Thai or there's some cultural sense of humour there that doesn't come across in English. It just seemed pretty racist to me, with everyone hating the white guy. Maybe it was ironic, I'm not sure.

Anyway, I'd give it a miss if I were you.

So loved this character-driven story about the most dysfunctional family I have ever seen. The interrogator, apparently one of the biggest comedians in Thailand, is quite a powerful and hilarious presence who carries this movie with his good intentions toward solving the mass murder. I do not wish to spoil this wondrous tale by saying much more. The acting is stellar and each character is beautifully drawn. Earl is such a delight. I am now watching this again so that I can see it all in a new light. You will too. Here is the alphabet so that I may complete the minimum number of letters required to complete the review. Abcd etc.

The movie was alright to start with. The only thing that slightly ruined it was the english dub which was very strange, as even earl was dubed too. But getting back to the movie. Earl is accused of murdering the in laws and the only witness is his wife and mai his niece. Thre detective in charge is a little odd but I liked his characters and all the characters had a certain quirkness that brought this from being just another murder mystery to elements of almost comedy and it worked. It made the movie overall enjoyable it had a good cast and the characters were written well enough so you could understand. Overall pretty good.

This weird comedy begins in a way that may make you wonder if it will be worth your time. If you like bizarre, dark humor and some farce in your comedy, then the payoff will be coming your way.

A rural Thai family resents the hell out of a couple of Caucasian guys - an American and a Brit - who married two of their women. One night a massacre occurred around the parents' farmhouse and the Brit quickly becomes the main suspect. The local police chief has already made up his mind about the guilt of this outsider. The early part of the movie is his grilling the survivors, pushing hard to confirm his conclusion. Most of that unfolds as a semi-zany version of Rashomon.

The last 20-30 minutes are golden in unraveling the absurd chain of events that ended with such a liberal scattering of corpses in an unlikely setting. Very cleverly written and staged in building to its highly entertaining conclusion.

I didn't expect much from Phetthai's movies, which are usually just a try-to-be-funny, but this one is better than what I thought. Overall, the movie is entertaining and really funny at times.

First of all, I'm impressed with the camera work. It's stylish and there are scenes that are impressively beautiful like the flashback when the police talked about the origin of his scar and the first ride to the village under the grey sky amidst the green field of Thai Northeast countryside. The computer graphic and make-up were effective; I particular like the cloud turning into comic characters at the final part. Some corpse look scary and some look funny. The use of Esarn music in some particular scenes made me burst out laughing because it's just so ironic when played in that scene. Very creative use of the soundtrack like this. The editing works as well, it keeps the story moving fast but everything is easy to follow.

Talking about the cast performance, I think all of them did good job. I especially like the performance of Little June and the fat Farang husband.

The plot are creative and good for this type of investigation / dark comedy film. However, there are moments so unrealistic like when people see a dead body and still don't think she's dead. Oh well, the later half are presented in a very comical way so that passed and we just laughed instead of thinking about that. I think the twists at the ending is smart, but I don't recommend your young children to watch this film, really.
