Reviews
Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Really Surprised!
if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
I'm gonna talk about a movie named "Salween"( the English title is "Gunman II" ) by the director ChatriChalerm Yukol that was shot in 1993. After WorldWar 2, Burma got its independence from England but the Karen minority problem was left unsolved. So an independence war between Karen and Burmese started.Different protagonists take part: a policeman ( Sorapong Chatree ) acting like an outlaw and wishing to revenge his wife killed a few years ago, a young policeman coming from Krung Thep ( Chatchai Plengpanich ) with no experience in such difficult area, a Thai merchant playing Karen against Burmese in order to have access to rich forests full of teak logs, a Burmese general ( Ron Rittichai ) wishing to destroy the Karen stronghold around Salween river, a Karen captain (Chatchai Plengpanich ) wishing to defend his stronghold and giving in a wrong alliance with the Thai merchant.
