A supernatural marriage story between a human and a ghost. When Menn, a super-straight mugger-turned-police spy, accidentally picks up a mysterious red envelope, he is bound by a supernatural contract that forces him to wed a ghost. Fate plays an even crueler trick on him: his "spouse" is not only dead, but a cute and unapologetically progressive gay man named Titi. Menn must help Titi uncover the truth behind the accident that took Titi’s life so he can finally rest in peace and leave Menn alone. All clues eventually lead to an illegal drug case that Menn and Goi, an older policewoman that Menn has a crush on, happen to be investigating. Believing that solving this case will benefit his career and love life, Menn takes on this atypical mission to help Titi, leading to an unlikely bond between the living and the dead, a gay and a straight man.

Reviews

Good comedy
I was so lucky this movie came out in theaters while I was on vacation in Thailand! I had a great time.The story is funny, the actors perform well, and the scenes are well-paced. The plot isn’t too complicated, and there are nice messages of tolerance throughout, which is a plus.
I recommend it!

He came... he haunted and he healed!
I genuinely thought this was going to be another campy adaptation but I am pleasantly surprised by the good execution.Menn is a grumpy ex-thief turned undercover informant, who somehow ends up getting married to Titi, who is dramatic, clingy and very much dead. They embark on a journey of 'who killed Titi' and what could have been a paranormal disaster somehow morphed into this weirdly wholesome and emotional movie.
Their character dynamics felt very genuine. The evolving connection was handled with emotional depth, wit and a certain level of chaotic charm. It was a little cliche and slapstick at times but it never mocked or reduced their individual journeys. The humor never came from character's pain points. Their partnership is what drive the movie for me.
The movie juggles with too many threads at one time, from action (police investigating drug lord) to relationships to grief and finally some self-discovery. While it does justice to almost all the sub plots, it did feel a little chaotic at times. The pacing also suffered especially during the last closing scene between Menn ,Titi and his dad. It definitely had emotions, but it didn’t hit as hard as it could have. It felt like it was almost there, just needed a bit more weight. That scene had a better impact on me in the OG version. ( When I say better, it means I full on cried)
Comedy was hit and miss for me, but mostly hit. Action scenes were less but was decently done. Since I already saw the OG version, I knew what twists were coming, the reduced the shock value of key moments.
The cast delivers solid performances, especially the leads. They breathe life (and afterlife xD) into the characters that could have easily fallen into caricature territory. It's been a while since I saw Billkin and PP Krit on screen and honestly I missed them. Even though romance wasn't a focus here, but they had very comfortable and visible chemistry.
Overall, this was fun, chaotic and far more thoughtful than it looks on paper. The humor is loud but it sneaks up on you. It is not perfect by any means but a good one time watch!
I would definitely recommend it!
Side note : I wanted to title the review as 'Boo-hemian Rhapsody' but decided otherwise! 😂
