Midnight Museum (2023)

If you want to watch because the main cast looks promising, please don't.

It's because they barely have any screentime. And their storyline barely moves and is rushed in the end. There are too many subplots and side characters for like 60% of the show, so Khatha and Dome barely get any screentime. Hell, the side characters get so much screentime that they can be called the main characters at this point.

If I make a Gun Atthaphan cut for this entire show where he is awake and acting instead of being unconscious or stuck somewhere, it would only be of 30 minutes max. And the plot in itself is a mess - is it about time travel? Multiverse? Mythical creatures? Inspired by religious things? Black Magic? Cults? You wouldn't know because it is a clusterfuck of all of these.
(Since when centuries' old magically summoned devils started dying of mere bullets? lol)

But still 2 episodes were very good storywise- the one with memory butterflies (the acting was top notch) and the episode where The One appears for the first time (Gun can play multiple characters well).

Such a wasted potential that it left me angry. It could've been so much better. They have left an open end at the final episode hinting at a season 2 but I wouldn't wanna watch it if this is what the director is gonna do again. The VFX was trash too towards the end. Tor Thanapob as Khatha was amazing but even he couldn't save this show for me. But I will look forward to his work from now on.

siblings or dating ?

It was my first time watching this genre and by GMMTV, and I was a bit surprised because the special effects were pretty good it was depending on the scenes.
I put 7,5 stars for the story because it was definitely for big brained people, I didn't understand everything and maybe that's why I didn't like it that much. The first part was nice, the different stories were interesting but the second part when Doom was stuck somewhere I don't even know where, was long. It's just Khatha searching for his lover. Because you can't tell me these two were just brothers, I'm not going to accept it. They even run together hand to hand at the end 🤔🤔

I have to admit that the story of Phone and Ton made me very sad, to see Ton trying to save the man he loves so hard made me drop a tear. And to see he just had to accept the love of Phone to save him make me laugh (because that was so easy) but also cry because that was beautiful 😢🤧

Could have a season 2, but Idk if I will watch it (maybe If Namtan is still in the series). I put 3 stars to the rewatch value, but I don't think I will watch it ever again.
Namtan was so beautiful, and her dress as the bride was amazing, she is the love of my life ♡

An Enigmatic Supernatural Ride with Untapped Potential

"An unexplained bunch of intriguing characters." That's what I thought while delving into this supernatural series that promised a refreshing change from the typical romantic dramas. While it indeed delivered on its supernatural premise, it fell short of its full potential due to a convoluted plot and lack of character development.

The series centers around Dome, a barista who stumbles upon a mysterious job offer from Khatha, a mysterious museum owner. Reluctantly accepting the position at a museum housing cursed objects, Dome unwittingly releases one of these malevolent artifacts, setting off a chain reaction that puts the world in peril. As Dome and Khatha embark on a dangerous journey to recapture the cursed objects, they soon discover hidden truths about themselves, including Khatha's immortality and Dome's mysterious origins.

The fast-paced narrative keeps the audience on their toes as each episode delves into the tale of a different cursed object and its devastating impact on humanity. The urgency and riskiness of the adventure make for an engaging watch. However, as the series progresses, it becomes increasingly complex and confusing, especially with the introduction of three versions of Dome from different worlds. Sadly, little to no explanation is provided for their existence, leaving viewers with more questions than answers.

Another downside is the plethora of characters introduced, with some acting as antagonists without clear motivations. The lack of character background and development leaves them as enigmatic as the supernatural elements in the plot. The final episode's attempt to shed light on these mysteries falls short, providing only vague explanations that leave us wanting more clarity.

Despite the flaws, the series boasts exceptional talent, with notable guest roles like Bright delivering impressive performances. Nanon's portrayal of multiple characters adds depth to the series, especially in the final episode. Nevertheless, the lack of character exploration leaves the main cast's potential largely untapped.

In conclusion, the series takes viewers on an enigmatic supernatural ride with glimpses of brilliance, but it struggles to reach its full potential due to a crowded plot and underdeveloped characters. While the CGI adds to the experience, a few more episodes with focused storytelling could have elevated this series into a wonderful watch. For fans of the supernatural genre, it still offers moments of intrigue and entertainment.

Fascinating in its individual parts, but frustrating to piece together as a whole

What starts off as somewhat conventional horror becomes a mixed-genre story that gets increasingly far-fetched. I can't decide whether to give credit to the creators of this series for daring to try something like that or to lambaste them for going more than a little too far in merging paranormal elements with parallel-universe concepts.

What I did enjoy a lot was the bit of BL in the story. I'm not just talking about the ambiguous relationship between the main characters, which may be interpreted as "bromance" of sorts but increasingly becomes like one of those censored BLs from China (where you kind of know that the characters are in love even though it's not said). There is really a BL couple fairly late in the series (Tum and Phone), and I'm glad that despite the loose threads and plot holes in the story, there is some effort to give closure to their story.

Some of the individual subplots are actually quite decent. Sometimes, the series even manages to inject palpable pathos into the characters, such as in the subplot involving Ton (played by Nanon). However, perhaps the writers should have kept the plot simple. When it tries to merge sci-fi, paranormal, mystery and horror, it turns out confusing rather than intriguing. At times, one feels like yelling at the scriptwriters: "Just tell us who these characters are already!" Who the hell are the different characters played by Gun Atthaphan: Dome, Chan, The One? And then we have characters dying and coming back to life ... because of some dark forces at work? ... because of "faith"??? (what faith could they have if they are dead?)

Interestingly, the series gets into all sorts of messy entanglements without being unwatchable. We can kind of follow that A, B, C, D and E and happening even though we can't really see A, B, C, D and E forming a coherent whole and even though we might find ourselves wonder how A, B, C, D and E can even be happening. The cliffhanger after the closing credits in Episode 10 also leaves one with the impression that there isn't a serious attempt to tell a coherent story. What we have is a weird pastiche of narrative devices that serve to bait viewers. This has sustained the series for 10 episodes, but is it sustainable for another season?

Don't stop Watching!

The Acting is spectacular! From the main actors to the side actors. Most of them don't need dialogues to convey what they wanted to. The Casting was beyond perfect, especially the two main characters. The chemistry between the pair was incredible, it heightened every episode.

The plot was also intriguing, it keeps you engrossed in the series.

My only advice is not to give up on the series and continue watching, the pacing might be a bit fast, particularly the first ep, and sometimes leaves you confused at some point, but it gets even better over time and the only way to answer your questions is to keep watching.

gradually getting worse

eeeehh....it´s starting to look more and more like c fantasy novel....those cgi effects are ruining whole atmosphere and plot makes no sense longer i watch it. gun and tor have suprisingly good chemistry but overall it´s only thing why i still watch (this and I don´t like unfinishing series) Why creators decided to use christian motives in mystery to me, but it ended up with ghosts and werid red eyed monster, so I guess Bible is only thing releated to christianity there. I hope last ep will save it, but I highly doubt since I don´t like anything about this series. Gmmtv should stick to boring romance dramas, they are good at it.

A Twist

at First, the the series is quiet boring but in a later part once you focus on it, you will understand why.

characters of each episode is amazing, they deliver their character and the story well enough. I love the 3 episodes The Thieves (boys), well they give me goosebumps plus laughter at the same time but i wish the animation or make ups is more realistic since the actions is a clap clap.
next 4th episode Bright, Pat, And Joss; the role and the story are match to them, they deliver it with an OMG!! especially Bright well we know him as a rebel guy but he nailed it again.
but for the rest, quiet lame and boring since I don't know, i think they need to be more emphasize the story since it too short.
and lastly the episode for Gun and Tor, same with the other episode their story is too short but I love the struggle on finding a way to be together. and the story of Mark and Junior is a plus; you will do everything to make you happy. i wish their story have more appearance but yeah! i love the twist.

Music it match on each event, but I've more on scenes and character.

I wish there will be finale episode or season 2 at least, more focus on Gun side story and both love story.

Midnight Museum

MIDNIGHT MUSEUM - It is one of the most thrilling and interesting series I have ever watched. I highly recommend everyone to watch it. Many of my favorite actors like Nanon, Gun, Namtan, Bright, Tay have played their roles really good. And the storyline was also wonderful. It is a kind of fantasy and thrilling. The background music is really amazing along with the climax. This series almost took me another imaginary world.

Each character is perfect in their own way. After watching the last episode of it, I was like " Why didn't GMMTV release the season 2 of this series....". I really miss this series and its cast....
