As I sat down to watch the 2017 Thai comedy titled "Oversize Cops", I must admit that I wasn't sure what I was getting into there, as I hadn't heard about the movie prior to sitting down to watch it here in 2021.
But I must admit that writers Phuwanit Pholdee and Phuvarith Phuapairoch failed to come up with a storyline and script that entertained me. I am sure that the draft for "Oversize Cops" might have worked out well enough in concept idea and on paper, but the transition to the screen at the hands of directors Phuwanit Pholdee and Chanon Yingyong just left much to be wanted.
First and foremost, more comedy and laughs would have been a nice thing to have had in the movie. For a comedy then "Oversize Cops" was frightfully devoid of funny situations and actually failed to make me laugh, much less smile. No, "Oversize Cops" was a swing and a miss. Perhaps it was because the comedy - or lack thereof - in the movie was something that didn't appeal to me at all.
The acting in the movie was adequate enough, taking into consideration the massive restrictions a lack of proper storyline and contents to the script imposed on the actors and actresses in the movie.
If you enjoy Thai comedies, then there are far, far better choices readily available out there in a great abundance. I wouldn't personally recommend anyone to sit down to watch "Oversize Cops". It just was too devoid of anything funny.
My rating of "Oversize Cops" is a generous three out of ten stars.
