Vice Versa (2022)
6/10
Drama failed to portray what the poster carried
18 June 2023
If there was an award for plagiarizing dialogues and scenes in Thailand it could be awarded to this series. The sheer number of people that appear on screen to just show their support towards the newly launched CP is distracting. Attempting a plot based on a book, that talks of two people falling in love in the alternate universe but carry back their feelings, is commendable yet the execution is terrible. The art, props, styling and make up, editing and mixing team did well but their efforts went in vain due to bad scriptwriting. The camera person should understand that Jimmy, Pepper, Boom, Neo and Aou (character artists) are amateur, lacking the technique to act with their expression thus panning a frame over to their façade for a whole while doesn't emote anything. The viewers may misunderstand that the recording is stuck up. N' Sea, keng maak... (finger hearts)

Lastly I would want to rant about the exploitation of established fame of Nanon and Ohm in this series. In an interview, P'X, the director mentioned that the characters in the alternate universe play a great significance. I hope he compensates them according to the amount of unfair utilization of their name to promote this drama. Their faces were everywhere, poster to the prologues of successive episodes. But where is their story? The director even used a personal picture of OhmNon photographed by P'Aoff on the sets of My Precious, directorial of P'Fon. I wonder if there was anything original.

Sea, you are a natural actor. Well done for your debut drama. I shall look forward for your works.
