the story take on the adventure of a reckless guy who be away from his pregnant wife in the rural area and seek to become a singer in the city but thing turn out badly ( or funny . ) . he go through a series of unexpected event and finally return home at the end . a lack of skill in filmmaking be obviously show in monrak transistor . the music be somehow nostalgic and remind me of the old day but the film itself have nothing to do with that feeling . predictable plot and poor adaptation from country song to few musical scene and formulaic end make it totally dull from start to the end . this film can not lie itself exactly on what it gene be . be it musical or drama . i guess it just a drama with some comic element . be the stereotype of people living outside a big city like bangkok suppose to be funny in a sense . of course and there be many more way to portray thai country lifestyle than a bunch of unnecessary and pathetic joke that only trigger your physical reaction from your stomach rather than your intellectual reaction from the brain . you might laugh at some gag but later on you might realize that it be a kind of movie that be so bad that it make you feel you should laugh at it . this be one of the bad thai film in recent year .
