StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Desertman84 One Night Husband is a mystery/ thriller film that did not generate any suspense at all. The plot was about Sipang.She is a woman who tastes sweet nuptial bliss briefly with her man Napat before the phone rings on the night of their wedding. Napat picks up, mumbles something, and leaves the house. When he doesn't return, Sipang asks for help from Chatchai, Napat's brother, who's married to the demure introvert Busaba. The wife's search for her husband reveals his hidden past, revealing a painstaking portrayal of contemporary Thai women's values, as Sipang and Busaba become two halves of the same feminine whole.The story has a lot of problems in this movie.It started extremely slow that left a lot of confusion to the viewers. Aside from that, the characters involved in the film are very shallow. The ending,which tried to be disturbing, never left any emotional impact for the audience.The acting was not so convincing at all. The portrayal of the cast were never what they needed to be. The only bright spot in this film was Nicole Theriault, a very pretty actress. Unfortunately, her acting ability was not able to hold the film for its entirety as she herself did not gain any interest despite of the story revolves around her character. Her portrayal was simply boring. The same is true with Siriyakorn Pukkavej. Aside from that, the direction of the film has a lot to be desired from to become at least an average mystery/thriller. And finally,it was a movie that was a disappointing examination of Thai women and their values.
DICK STEEL Anyway the two movies presented were a hit and a miss, and One Night Husband turned out to be a bad miss. If many in the audience had their eyes closed at one point or another, or become fidgety in their seats, my opinion is that whatever is transpiring on screen, doesn't have enough of what it takes to hold an audience's attention. While the production value is good, it adopted the look and feel of an art movie about contemplation, isolation, and whatever that you would reckon the need for long silent moments.It begins with enough mystery to sustain anyone's attention - a newly wed couple consummating their marriage, except that after doing the deed, the groom walks out of the home after receiving an anonymous phone call. This leaves the bride Sipang (Nicole Theriault, a Thai pop star) perplexed, and she becomes anxious in finding out where her husband disappeared to after days of absence.However the movie seemed to junk this plot aside for a preference to dwell into her seeking of help from her brother in law Chat (Pongpat Wachirabunjong) and his wife Bussaba (Siriyakorn Pukkavesh), and from hereon, the focus is on the friendship developed between the two women, and probably if it fell into directors who are seduced by the GLBT themes of late, the relationship will dwell deeper than the platonic level.While the loose ends do get tied, the journey is trying. Unless you're a serious art movie lover, you might find many scenes in the movie pretty contrived and probably trying too hard. Essentially, the entire story is short film material, bloated only to include beautifully filmed moments of the mundane.
ANCHINN I like this way of viewing people, looking at women inside. I amazed when I knew the director is a female, besides she's in Thailand. I didn't know what kind of a movies made in that country, but once I saw this, I'd be da**ed! I could say this will be a good study for us. A women who suffered by some domestic violence. Relationship between man and a woman, how one big social influence easily erode one person, the shape of depressed feelings etc. She, the director didn't explain nothing by a word, she just express. The film is quiet but eloquence, got strong impression(at least, it works for me). Both 2 actresses are excellent also. I'd like to recommend this film worldwide, who loves art films. Like Antonioni or Bresson or some like them.
t-eberl This is a very slow and intense movie. It obviously has very beautiful pictures. The main characters are two women who seem to be totally diffrent, but strong in their own way. The end really wakes you up!
