May nai fai rang frer

I stumbled upon the 2017 Thai romantic comedy "May nai fai rang frer" (aka "May Who?") in 2021. And yeah, I hadn't even heard about this movie prior to watching it. But of course, with it being a Thai movie, and my love of Asian cinema, and the fact that I hadn't already seen it, of course I managed to find the time to sit down and watch "May Who?"

And I must admit that I was more than genuinely entertained and pleasantly surprised with how enjoyable and entertained that "May Who?" turned out to be.

Writers Chayanop Boonprakob, Nottapon Boonprakob, Vasudhorn Piyaromna and Thodsapon Thiptinnakorn definitely managed to concoct a wholesome story that encompasses elements of different genres, such as fantasy, romance and comedy. It was a well-written storyline with interesting characters. And director Chayanop Boonprakob definitely brought the movie to life on the screen in a very satisfying manner.

There is a good amount of comedy in the movie, but it is the heartfelt story that drive this movie, alongside with some good performances from the actors and actresses. I must admit that I was especially impressed with the performance of Sutatta Udomsilp (playing May-Nai), because she really carried this movie with her performance as the electrifying young girl.

If you happen to get the chance to sit down and watch "May Who?", then I strongly suggests that you do so, because I was surprised with how enjoyable this movie actually turned out to be. I had initially expected just another run-of-the-mill teenage comedy. But "May Who?" was more than just that.

I am rating "May Who?" a well-deserved seven out of ten stars.
