I Wanna Be A Sup'tar

Maybe a bit lengthy and different in a Thai way, but I still enjoyed it quite a bit. Because the relationship between the leads was worth it. It very nicely avoids (with a couple of mini exceptions) those misunderstandings where one thinks something about the other, is angry and neither of them addresses it, instead a deus ex machina has to come down to explain and guide everything down the right path. They both pretty clearly demand answers. How they are satisfied with them, how they handle them, is another matter. Anyway, it was fun. The girl's a stickler, not perfect, nor even the kind of sweet submissive who takes everything in stride. A goofy, sweet, but very naive heroine that I enjoyed and could identify with – she basically does the same crazy things I do sometimes. The hero was fine too, a likable guy who could smile and use his brain. They had a lot of good moments together and their relationship felt quite real. The same could be said for the characters who were on the back burner and were rejected by the main couple. That was the really cool part. Then there's also the part where the revelry begins, everything goes to extremes, and there are definitely some facepalm moments. Plus there was the clever removal of the main character's parents to England, so the writers hardly had to factor them into the plot at all. :-D A nice romantic comedy. Weaker as a drama, but still watchable. A thing where you don't have to strain your brain cells, but can grin and be entertained by those punks. (09/08/2018)
