Not so wonderful town


Wonderful Town (2007)

Directed by Aditya Assarat this Thai film stars Anchalee Saisoontorn and Supphasit Kansen. An architect from the big city travels to a rural town to help with the rebuilding and meets a woman that runs a hotel.

One of the first things that will strike you about this film is the slower pace and the use of montages which may not be to everyone's taste. The plot is a fairly standard boy meets girl for most of the film but takes a rather large twist towards the end which does seem a bit out of place. Maybe being unfamiliar with the local culture does not help but this does come across as a pretty average and sedate film.

3/5
