  by C. Tylar (Green Ridge Mo.)
This is one of my favorite movies.I love Biographies and when I found out this was based on a true story,I had to check it out and do some reading up on the characters and it was pretty much on.Excellent cast and beautiful settings.Director spent allot of time and money to make it for our pleasure.I give it 5 stars.Watching the behind scenes commentary only makes you appreciate the movie even more.Hats off to the cast and crew

I was really excited to find this DVD on Amazon.
I had been wanting to purchase it for my mother for quite some time. When I saw it, I snatched it up.
She was really happy to receive it. :)

A really good movie, but not great. I still enjoy watching it from time to time.

5/5 Great Movie
  by Shawn C. Kerrick (working in Afghanistan for US Government)
I have watched this movie many times. As i have lived in Thailand for several years now, i can see the "recreations" of the Royal Palace as well as many other places in Thailand are breath taking. I would use the "subtitles" if you are wathiching it with anyone who is Thai. My wife is Thai and as she watched it, she commented many times that the 90% Chinese Actors who are in the movie "acting" as Thai and trying to speak the language is MAYBE 50% at best. Other than the language problem and the obvious "holywood" spin, it is a VERY good and positive movie of the events of King Rama the 4th and the problems between Thailand and the Burmese/British/French ( research your history) in the time period in the DVD. That said, i still watch it when i can. It is a great movie. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to have an inside too Thailand during that historical time.
