    A sensitive movie about desires and decisions made so young in life it seems unfathomable. This picture did not fall into the same cliché traps of so many other films dealing with transgender do. I was moved by this film.

    Exceptionally well-crafted and moving biopic that treats its subject with emotional restraint and dignity. The film boats a truly superb central performance and lush production vales. First-time Thai director brings some dramatic complexity to the material.

    Uekrongtham handles the material with reasonable restraint, and you can't help but cheer on the hero.

    Ekachai's film takes a more compassionate view of its subject and boasts a dynamic performance by real-life kickboxer Asanee Suwan.

    Sweetly entertaining but bland biopic.
