Khun Phan 3 (2023)

Best Thai action movie

Khun Phan 3 is the final movie of the khun phan trilogy and it is one of the most anticipated Thai action movies of this year for me. It is directed by Khom Kongkiat Khomsiri and the story of this movie follows the life of Khun pan, the legendary invincible police officer and his adventure after world war 2.
The movie started when Khun phan after world war 2 as people start to question him if what he did to the bandit is too cruel making him retire early to live with his wife. While living peacefully there are 2 of the legendary bandits tiger Mahesuan and the tiger dam still on the loose making police come to beg khun phan to help them catch these tigers again to bring peace to the country again.
strength of this movie is its cinematography. Every shot in this movie is perfect. the location is great, the tone of the movie is gritty and fit the story well, the VFX and the production is the best Thai movie ever done and the fight scene is also amazing as always it is one of the best thing this movie offer with so many action scene that is well choreographed making it one of the best action movie thai ever made, the story also very enjoyable since it is the last mission of khun pan making the story feel more important.
The acting in this movie is also great. Every actor delivered it very well Ananda Everingham perform Khun phan amazingly as always and this time it was the best he has ever done. This time instead of Khun Phan shows more emotion than he ever was and he got broken instead of being the invincible hero who is unbreakable making Khun phan become more relatable than before. This time Mario also perform as Tiger Mahesuan. It is completely opposite from what he usually performs like a charming and fun protagonist and most of the characters he performs have a lot of comedic scenes but this time the character he performs is way more serious and he did a great job on it. The other new actor who did a superb job is Tono who perform as Tiger dam it is so good. The rage he shows toward Khun phan feels so real because of the backstory and not just that the voice of the act makes me feel the rage he has. And because these 3 main characters make the movie story feel way better than it is.
However, the movie pacing suffers from being too long making some parts of the movie suffer from it becoming a bit too stretched out so it is a bit boring in some parts because of 2 and a half hour run. So if it were shorter and streamlined this movie would be way better.
Overall This is one of the best Thai movies I have ever seen and I can say that it is worth the money. Even if you don’t care about the story it is still worth to go watch since the production, VFX, sound effect are also the best Thai ever done and you guy should give this movie a chance.
