DM07 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Just curious... I have some guilty pleasures like all the 70's "Emmanuelle" - movies, that play in Thailand...I heard.... "The Beach" or "The Hangover/2", which I liked! But the best one IMHO is "Brokedown Palace". Compelling story, killer soundtrack, excellent photography... https://youtu.be/SMHif_yec4k Any other suggestions? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stan42 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Oh dear, I studied "cinema of Thailand" back at uni. Some famous Thai movies featuring Thailand are "The adventures of Iron Pussy", "Ong Bak", "Last life in the universe", "Nang Naak", "Tears of the black tiger", "Chocolate" and "Uncle Boonmee". Films featuring Thailand made by non Thai's or shot outside Thailand include "The Beach", "The King and I", "Anna and the King", "The man with the golden gun", "Tomorrow never dies", "Bangkok Dangerous", "Bangkok Hilton", "Broken Palace", "The Railwayman", "The hangover 2" and "Bridge on the river Kwai". The best? The 90s "Ku Gam (Sunset at Chaophraya)" lakorn featuring Bird Thongchai. Oh the endless river of tears by teenage Thai girls at the season's finale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growe237 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 The Beach was an awful film imo, but the book was excellent. Anyone seen Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives (2010) "Loong Boonmee raleuk chat" (original title) Not Rated | 114 min | Drama, Fantasy | Worth a look. Very true to Thai life. Inspired by the book "A Man Who Can Recall Past Lives" by Phra Sripariyattiweti of Sang Arun Forest Monastery, Khon Kaen. Published in August 23, 1983. Featured in At the Movies: Cannes Film Festival 2010 The film is strange but the words which feel most appropriate to the film are "gentle" and "mysterious". http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1588895/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stan42 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 When it comes to stunts nobody is willing to go the length of Thai stuntmen. I've seen plenty of Thai action movies with downright suicidal stunts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFcbtzpIoqc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squeegee Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Sars Wars. Actually holds its own in the zombie movie genre as one of the obscure good ones. It's a comedy but the typical slapstick works well and it has a good budget and FX, funny situations and quite witty writing, a hot chick or two, lots of playing with stereotypes and a guest appearance by that famous bald farang whose name I've forgotten. Mosquito comes over from Africa and bites a farang (never a Thai of course) who then turns into a zombie and forces the lock-down of a BKK condo. Meanwhile our (Thai) heroes are trying to get into the building to rescue a young lady who's been kidnapped by a gang of hoodlums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
