Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Great Film overall
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Hit Man File is an interesting film. I should say first that while many people complain about Thai movies, I generally enjoy them. This is not a groundbreaking film in any sense, but it's highly enjoyable for fans of shoot'em-ups. The cinematography is on point, and the acting is very realistic. The film's major flaw comes in its story. A lot of Thai dramas tend to be a little over the top in terms of the melancholic (think of those Korean soaps) but this is not always a bad thing. The plot is decent, but it gets lost with the plethora of characters and their various schemes. Overall, check it out if you want a good way to spend an hour or two.
