My Girl (2003)

the audience applauded

So much average

One of my all time favorites.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

What a movie! This was the first Thai movie I ever watched and it played on some random foreign movie channel that we had during the mid to late 2000s. I've watched amazing movies from that channel and this one ranks up there.I was blown away by how good this movie was. It reminds me of my childhood even though I never lived in Thailand and even though my cultural background is completely different, I could identify with both the main characters and their friends. It's such a nostalgic trip. I would recommend any one who is planning to watch this movie to definitely give it a try.

Sometimes you listen to a particular old song, or you open a particular page of an old book, or you go and sit by the old playground you used to play, and thats it. The next few days, you won't sleep at night, sometimes you will laugh, and sometimes tears will flow along your cheek, silently, and ... alone... nobody else would know sweetness of that pain.This movie will make you feel exactly that.. and much more...The movie may not attract a lot of westerners. May be because they do not have these kinds of memories. But for the Asians, who in their childhood have struggled as well as enjoyed the meaning of childhood, this movie is the one. And if you don't want to interrupt your daily routine, this is not for you, because this will surely change you routines for the next few days.

There are some movies. which makes you watch again and again. This comes into that category.Story, direction, lighting, editing, music, subtle acting of lead boy and his group are fantastic.I've spent some time travel ling interiors of Thai, It's a mesmerizing place. I took a road to Cambodia on train and bus from Thailand. The places shot in this movie are very similar to the lovely locations i've seen.It surely a nostalgic movie. makes me remember my own childhood and the cute gal friend who went with her family to other city :) it's a must watch when Hollywood weaving movies just our of few computers....

I was just surfing channels & came across this movie on World Movies. The title was not very interesting but then they showed the synopsis of the movie & I was immediately drawn into this one. This movie is just not Thai specific as few have commented. This movie does appeal for non-thai viewers as well. I have grown up with similar neighborhood, friends, games & so I could really connect with the movie. This brought me back my childhood memories in a small town India where I spent a few years. Excellent acting by the lead roles & supporting cast made movie seem realistic & enjoyable.This was my first Thai movie & it really made me consider watching a couple of more Thai movies...
