Painful....
dzong6 October 2006
"Happy Inn" (or Rohng Tiam in Thai) has a great premise and some talented actors, but ends up looking like it was filmed without a script (maybe it was....). One dark and rainy night, a motley group of people end up staying at an isolated hotel in the middle of nowhere....A rich man and his beautiful Eurasian mistress, a group of three thieves trying to find the loot they hid years before, two crazy comedians and a mysterious man with a permanent case of the hiccups. There's a lot of potential to make a "Clue"-style mystery-comedy, but it's all wasted on unfunny jokes, bathroom humor and a million shots of Sayan Meuangjaroen (a famous Thai comedian who has Down's Syndrome) calling for his cat down a dark hall. Instead of telling an interesting story, the cast (most of whom are comedians) seem to care more about doing their own shtick. Naowarat Yuktanan, as the hot-tempered hotel concierge, does her best in a fairly one-note role, and I will admit that the ending, though predictable, was well-done. Still, not impressed....3/10
