Thaiflavor

About This Movie

So, 'Thaiflavor' is quite the quirky gem from 2021. You have this character, Fang Bingbing, who starts off as a martial arts geek and somehow becomes this local tough guy in the hutongs. The narrative takes a twist when he tries his hand at international Muay Thai but flops spectacularly during the auditions – it's a humorous take on ambition and failure. The pacing feels a bit erratic, but it fits the comedy vibe, with a mix of slapstick and some genuine heart. The culinary subplot adds an interesting flavor, no pun intended, and the performances have this laid-back charm. It's not groundbreaking, but there’s a warmth to it that might catch you off guard.
