Classic Again

Classic Again is a Thai remake of 2003 Korean film called The Classic which starred by Son Ye-Jin. I absolutely loved this film. I even prefer the screenplay of this Thai remake because it is more cohesive and engaging compare to its original film. Thitipoom Techaapaikhun delivered a stellar performance with flying colors as Kajorn.

This movie have a great cinematography and the storyline just wow.

I've watch the original movie years ago, but this remake is still breathtaking. Classic again, has its own tone, the cinematography and story line, also the acting, are very well presevered. All the main role (4 of them), made the movie so believable. And it's more relatable with Thailand culture (I'm Indonesian btw), scene by scene made you closer with the character and their fellings. A very good movie.

I really look forward to watching this movie when I know someone remakes The Classic.

However, having high expectation to a remake of an already-classic movie is usually resulted into disappointment. This movie is no exception.

Yes, the girl is cute but her acting is no way near to Son Ye-jin's acting in this film which propelled her into stardom.

The editing is also major weakness. It may be a bit confusing to people who haven't watched the original movie yet.

And most of all, this remake has no good soundtracks while the original has Canon in D as the main theme song which fits perfectly to the movie and also other sweet songs.

In a nutshell, this movie is a fail attempt to the original. Not so bad though but certainly not memorable.

If you enjoyed the original, you will definitely love this Thai Remake as well. Cinematography is great! The only lacking on this film are some good music like the original. They should have use the same Canon in D, Firefly and other instrumentals (but in their own version) to make it more melancholic.
