Man Suang

Just give it a try and you won't regret it ever. One of the best movies I have watched. I want to highlight Mile and Apo's acting. Specially Apo's acting was exceptional. All the actors have done a great job in conveying their characters. Specially the cinematography, visuals and camera work was in a really good quality. And the story line is even though it was bit fast forward that was really a good plot I must say. Want to watch it again so bad. I tried to avoid spoilers but I must say I really loved the way the movie interpreted chat and Khem's relationship. They were the sweetest. So I'm giving my rate as 10/10.

Overall 🍿: 7 - 7.5/10 based on the international movies we watched growing up.

Light/Cinematography/Songs: 10/10

Thainess: There could be much much more. If there was Thai festival celebration scene, it would be great. We would really like way more dancing scenes, even training scenes. Thainess or what is uniquely Thai, I think this can be explored much more and interwoven smoothly in daily Mansuang activities if this was a drama.

Storytelling: We feel its similar to the 90s HK movies. It's not complicated to understand. Dialogues can be better appreciated when watching 2nd round.

Editing: Some scenes can be viewed at 0.5x to be appreciated better. For example, emotional scenes, dancing scenes. Apo has many great scenes, but it flashed past too fast, there's no pause or 0.5x button in the cinema. Tbh, I think 2.5hrs would make the story more complete.

Plot/Pace: 1st 10mins or so, the pace and building of atmosphere was very good. Really well done. Apo did very well in those scenes. If it was kept that way, it would definitely lead to a thrilling suspenseful movie throughout.

The pace kind of dropped in the middle, during the investigations. Not sure if due to PG13, we felt it could be better in terms of sinister/evil/dark overall vibes. Personally, I didn't like the occasional humor in some scenes, but that could be a style.

Characters: For fans who have read the intro of each char before the movie, they will be able to appreciate the characters MUCH better and their actions. If not, 2hrs is insufficient for everyone to grasp everything. Special mention, crafting of Bas's char was well done esp his background.

Acting: Apo's scenes were very well done, we could watch him all day. His eyes were expressive and all emotional scenes were even more natural than in KinnPorsche. You can say he has improved by leaps! But the editing broke the flow of emotions invoked in me.

Watching the second round, I had more time to feel Khem. Other characters, had very good expressions and were natural. Esp the dark grey characters in this movie, they delivered their dialogues and expressions very well.

Overall, a 7 to 7.5/10 review, we feel its fair on international standards. We hope Mansuang can be made into a drama with more Thainess interwoven in it.

This is a beautiful movie. The art, the music, the acting. Everything was superb. Got us at the edge of our seats in anticipation. The love and bond between the main characters is so heart wrenching.

This represents the culture and beauty of Thailand and teaches you to read between the lines. The characters are all so intriguing, so mysterious and have a story to tell of their own. 10/10 would rewatch this movie. I highly recommend rewatching it multiple times to get the full experience.

The actors did a magnificent job at bringing their characters to life! This is definitely going to be winning a lot of awards.

The story is novel and interesting, and the scene is very beautiful.

It is not easy to immerse foreigners in the art of traditional Thai song and dance, but Mansuang has done it.

Apo's performance is so good that you completely forget about himself and the roles he has played before. The moment he takes off the hood makes people hold their breath, and with the scene and music of the movie, people are completely immersed.

There are many professional traditional drama actors in the film, which guarantees the artistic level of the film. The choreography, the lighting, the sound, the props, everything was well done.

Many details were not noted and I would consider a second viewing.

#Mansuang, a wonderful retro Thai film that reflects Thai politics This is a very good photo, with an amazing perspective, a great sequence, and a great focus on every scene.

The magical thing about Po is that he is a charismatic leading actor. No matter which character he plays, we believe that the character is real. The burden on the main actors is enormous, but Po has already dealt with it. How did he do it because Porsche's character is Khmer?
