I remember looking forward to this one, as I was among those - back then maybe not among that many - who cheered up for Pope to be a pra'ek, as I adored him in 'Tawan Deard', 'Buang', etc... What was my disappointment!

Turns out it DOES matter who they pair him with. As 'Khun Chai Pawornruj' proved to be the weakest link of 'Suparburoot Jutathep'. 'Ruk Ok Rit' & 'Sapai Jao' drowned in lacklustre, too. But nothing compared to the effect of a completely lifeless doll by his side (she is pretty, but that's it), called Diana Flipo.

After a promissing start, the story drags (the kind of story where the pra'ek LEAVES for years? really?) nothing can save this, not the period setting, not any attempts to enrich it with some sort of mission featuring Alex Rendell, not the antics of once again too-annoying-to-not-skip-all-her-scenes Tanya Tanyares, and least of everything not the main couple cast. I wish I could get my hours wasted watching back. Enough said....
