It was like traveling through Thailand via a plot. All sets look way better than flashy big Hollywood sets and I was constantly glued to the screen trying to make out funny letters, cool posters, interesting cultural traits. It's like experiencing a tiny bit of Thailand and it's a breath of fresh air. We get to see all sides of Thailand: indoors, university, business, 7-Eleven, small factory, roads, train station, mall, outdoors mall. A careful movie with sets that are ALL natural to the local environment. It's seldom you watch a movie that doesn't feel like a reproduction, but the real thing. The down-to-Earth product made with care and not just flashy scenes. It's the greatest country on Earth to film in and set a story in, but while watching this movie I really understood what I was missing. Lazy produced products with no soul to them and you forget them a few weeks after you watched them. It's not that I dislike American movies it's just that soooo many movies feel the same. I see the same styles, settings, topics and even themes in Hollywood productions and it feels more similar than ever before.
A lot of it really feels like production line products.
Lately I've been watching a lot of historical movies and just fun new big projects from largely USA.
