Comment for Kaos's first film- Fah and my opinion on films


Fah is one of the hardest action films that I ever find. Last December, I finally ordered the movie and got it. I watched it twice. I was really impressed on what I have seen from Wych Kaosayananda because he had done great action scenes in this film. It was so much better than Ballistic. Ballistic bombed because of screenwriter. Wych Kaosayananda should have wrote the script for that film just like what he did for Fah. Fah is a wild roller coaster ride and the action seems non-stop for 118 minutes.
When this film opens, you wouldn't know what was going on then all of sudden after it hits after 1 minute, the action just started. And also there's more story to it than you thought if you were disappointed with Ballistic. You'll have fun and great time for Fah. The ending was sad but I feel it was great action film and this film should have gone straight to US only for direct to video with subtitles. I hope they can do it sometime soon.
And also I can tell the difference between this film and Ballistic is that Wych Kaosayananda can do whatever he wants to do for this film than Ballistic. I have this feeling that Hollywood should not be on director's back, the director should take over things and do whatever they want if they write the screenplay or story by himself or herself because it is important for them to do their own vision if they want to write and direct movies. And I personally agree with Wych Kaosayananda's philosophy is that action films in modern age are sucked because they are doing more in mtv style. He's trying to make the action films to go back to 70s and 80s just like how 70s and 80s action films were great.
One person's comment for this film is completely wrong. This film is not nasty. It just mindless fun and enjoyable ride. And also it's not very bloody. Bad people killed innocent people for no reason? Hahaha... don't keep criticizing for that *beep*, just like what other action films have. Don't you just get it? Movies are all about fun, pure entertainment and stop criticizing the films, just learn how to enjoy them. I liked many films except Lord of the Rings, Titanic, Natural Born Killers, Fight Club and A Clockwork Orange. They all are bombed because those movie are plain stupid and nonsense to be entertained. But at least clockwork orange had some important points to the society along with Natural Born Killer. Lord of the Rings... eww but 2nd is slightly better than first because of entertainment and 3rd one is just plain stupid like 1st one but some parts were good except for that long ending which made me feel tired because Peter Jackson kept fading into black and go to next scene.
So I would say nice job to Wych Kaosayananda for writing and directing Fah, I hope he can continue with that as for his next film. Otherwise he should have re-make Ballistic and write the script by himself. And hey to one person who said that Wych should have gone back to film school and learn what he had done wrong. That person is wrong, I can see that Wych has a potential but I know it won't happen until after his 4th or 5th maybe 6th film to achieve that.
