Storyline

Jeab hears that his childhood sweetheart Noi-Naa is to be married, so he makes the trip back home to his provincial village. As he does so, the memories come flooding back to his childhood in 1980s Thailand. He remembers always being late to school, so his father would have to give him a ride on the back of the motorcycle. After school, he would always play with Noi-Naa and her girlfriends while the neighborhood boys rode their bicycles and played football and Chinese fantasy characters.

Warm, Funny, and Bring back your childhood

It's an honor for me to be the first to comment on this movie. I had a chance to see this film a few months ago. As a Thai guy, it flashes back my childhood memory and that made me smile all the way through the end.

Even though it is not a high budget movie comparing to those from Hollywood, I believe that the simplified storyline is the strength of this movie.

After watching this movie, I had a warm feeling and it really made my day. The movie also has some funny moments like 'the chinese martial art fantasy scene'. I can't guarantee if the non-Thai viewers will enjoy it but I am sure that most of the Thais will definitely like it. :D

10/10 for a Thai.
