Yodrak Nakrob (2019)

Promising Start....

There’s no review for this so here I am...

I really liked the first half of this. It was funny and the music was great. A little after the second half hit, it became less funny and more serious. I thought there was a wee bit too much killing going on even for an Action. They were unnecessary and did nothing to move the story along. I was quite disappointed that the Navy Officer character didn’t stick around for long.

I really liked the cast, maybe except for this female lead. I’ve never watched her before so I’m not sure if it was her character or acting but I wasn’t feeling it. She never responded to kissing scenes so it was like I was watching a Pancake Kiss - no lip movement, it’s like her lips were frozen. Another thing was the lack of reacting to something happening to a loved one. She was tooo calm after finding out the truth and the funny thing is, even the villain said the same thing. The romance was barely noticeable and I feel like they should’ve just left that out.
I thought the rest of the cast did amazing, the action scenes were really enjoyable. I felt it dragging a little bit in the last few episodes.

The music is extremely repetitive so if you’re not prepared for all that you should probably skip those. I really only liked one song but that’s cos it was super catchy and I couldn’t help sing along to it. There’s not that many words to remember. Sadly, the music died in the second half. There’s also a lot of noise (sound effects) pretty much all the way through, so be mindful if you don’t like that.

I wouldn’t rewatch this.

Lovely Action

I enjoyed the whole story: action, romance, comedy. It's all good. Interesting conflict between Yodrak & Nakrob bcoz it's not just about their career, but also their love life. Some dialogues involving Yodrak/Nakrob & Chon are sooo... deep that i can feel their love & sincerity toward each other. Love is strengthening. Love can turn a selfish man into a hero (sounds cliche but yeah that's how i feel, haha)

Of course i'm happy for Yodrak & Chon, but i pity Nakrob so much. However he's the first to propose Chon, he's Chon's first love, & his sincerity melted me down. When Chon 'met' him again, honestly i hoped she would've kissed him for the last time, though it's just his body that left :(

However, i think Yodrak's skill as a soldier is too instant, it shouldn't be compared to Nakrob's. Also, Chon's feeling towards Nakrob, 'fake' Nakrob, & Yodrak looks vague. But overall, it's still enjoyable.
