this be my 6th thai film and i be sorry to say i have see 5 good one . the only thing intrigue about the film be why it win a jury prize at the cannes film festival . since the french think that jerry lewis be a comic genius and i have long since give up try to understand their aesthetic . i will relate the film to mine represent while it true that southeast asian film be just now deal with the issue of homosexuality while and while it true that thai cinema be just emerge and probably need encouragement this film be a discombobulated mess . the underlying psycho political message be more than a little disturbing and too . to the extent that the tiger stand for desire the message be either kill the desire or the desire will consume or kill you . and thus the portrayal of the soldier desire be conflict . while in the first half of the film he seem to know exactly who or what he want in the second half of the film he be lose and confuse and frighten by his desire . and there be simply too many throw away scene such a go into the cave with the weird sister and go to the mall with the weird sister and meaningful glance exchange by both the solider and the boy and young woman along the way all of which give you a taste of urban thailand but towards what end . and the interplay of countryside ( traditional ) versus urban ( modern ) thailand be messy and too . if traditional value teach that such desire be a bestial trap it pretty hard to see the urban jungle a offer any particular alternative escape in this film .
