“Love Syndrome : The Beginning” Movie Review

1 Comment

“Love Syndrome : The Beginning” is the self-indulgent reimagining of the recently released “Love Syndrome 3”. Recently deceased director and writer F. Nontapat Sriwichai put his heart and soul into this hour and thirty minute feature film and it truly shows. Glistening well-made sets, close up shots of the men that pepper the film with unique, stand out acting (everyone besides Def Rattanan, whose Day was the worst part of the film in my opinion) do a phenomenal job.

“Two Worlds” Series Review (Ep.1 to 10)

Leave a comment

Frankly, it is irrelevant how many worlds this series had; even a half a dozen more would not have helped. It is just awful. I am sorry to say that as I so wanted to like this drama. However, this is again going to be one of those series that if you are a fan of the two leads (which I really am), you will perhaps enjoy this series. I tried, but for me the whole thing fell apart at the beginning- from the banal screenplay to production issues to vapid acting. All of it was just plain mediocre to subpar.

“Heartbreak High Season Two” Series Review (Ep.1 to 8)

Leave a comment

The second season of “Heartbreak High” is as drama-packed as one would expect, with friendships blossoming, relationships and characters developing, the titular heartbreaks of course and Amerie (Ayesha Madon) never really catching a break. “Heartbreak High” deserves the same treatment that its predecessor did, with many seasons and more episodes, because it is not only entertaining, but tackles a wide variety of issues that teens deal with, that could be handled with more nuance if it wasn’t limited to the 8 episodes that Netflix has doomed it to. There is a lack of topical, fun teen dramas that are engaging and pop cultural in the way that “Pretty Little Liars”, “Gossip Girl” and all the ABC and CW dramas did back in the day, and “Heartbreak High” fills this gap, with a queer-forward diverse cast and tackling real issues in a way that it seems like it must go on forever.

“Deep Night” Series Review (Ep.1 to 8)

Leave a comment

This is a surprisingly, shockingly smart, articulate, and very well-done BL with loads of moral precepts that I was not expecting. In other words, I loved this series through and through. It is very adult-like and tackles some sensitive issues in a veiled way that you have to peel away like an onion. The screenplay is very impressive. Sure, it has its weak moments, but they are few and far between and do not deflect from its core message.
