Cast: Aokbab Chutimon Chuengcharoensukying, Sunny Suwanmethanont
This movie has the taste of indie where the story relies more on the emotional impact of the protagonist side. The story progress slowly but realistically down to your feelings. There was no unnecessary event, instead, the acting, the tone, the cinematography, the settings are all collaborated to convey the message of self-realization from all the choices you made. And yes, I am fully aware that I can let go of the things and people, but the memories will always remain.
Verdict: 10/10

Take Me Home (2016)
The story features a man, Tan (Mario Maurer) who struggles to find his own identity after mysteries accident and after returning home to his twin sister, Tubtim (Wannarot Sonthichai) he learns to fear her secrets and those of her family in that house.
Cast: Mario Maure, Vill Wannarot Sonthichai
Honestly, I watched this movie only because of Mario, I just miss him on the screen and well, this film has an interesting premise too. Take Me Home is a family ghost story and though it took me some time to understand the plot, the visual effects and soundtrack are excellent. This film doesn’t have much dialogue instead it uses motif and images to develop the story and go deep with the larger context. This is not a traditional horror movie as I expected and yet, it was a good experience to see the different elements of this genre.
Verdict: 9/10

I had fun watching this movie. It’s musical and comedic. The theme features of teenage romance, friendship and dreams. I like the way they presented the band’s journey. Just don’t expect a lot from this film, simply it focuses on attaining their goal, growing up and resolving issues.
Verdict: 8/10
