This review may contain spoilers
This is a period action drama with fantasy elements. The story is set in the early 1960s-70s. It was previously made into a movie under a different title and was very popular in the past. It has been remade many times, and each version has been successful.
The story is set in Ayutthaya province.
The protagonist, Saming, is framed as a notorious bandit and the murderer of the district chief. He is in love with Srinuan, but she becomes involved with Luesan, the governor's son from Bangkok. They are separated and unable to marry, and Srinuan becomes a single mother. The story focuses on two generations: the generation of Saming, the bandit, and the generation of Srinuan's children.
The show features action-packed fight scenes that are designed to be entertaining and visually appealing, as well as four romantic storylines.
The first two couples are from the older generation, with the actors being youthful and attractive, including both Saming and Luesan. The other two couples are from the younger generation, and they are portrayed excellently, especially the couple of Soidao (PP Punpreedee) and the Captain (Ryu Vachirawich), who is undercover to catch the bandit. Trust me, everyone who watches this show will love these two.
If you're not interested in the romance, there's still plenty of action, investigation, and fun fantasy elements to enjoy. Additionally, the show's CG and production are spectacular, featuring explosive boat scenes, burning huts, and truly hilarious comedic moments.
You'll get to see the houses, lifestyles, and beliefs of Thais in the olden days, especially the lives of people living on boats along the Chao Phraya River, which are now almost nonexistent.
The fighting techniques in the action scenes are beautifully executed, and the younger actors perform admirably. One particularly famous scene, which has been widely shared on TikTok, is where Ryu carries PP with one arm while fighting.
I believe everyone who watches it will feel good immediately after finishing. I might deduct some points for the unrealistic in some scenes, but then again, it's fantasy. You can easily overlook those aspects.
