An uneven road trip with not so compelling characters and an overly sentimental plot. Especially in the first half. Fortunately, it's getting better in the second half when the film finally gets a more clear point of view. Should use some trimming to make it tighter and lose some of its unnecessary narrative fat.

As a Hong Kong Film Critic myself, this is one of the most anticipated Thai film for years as I noticed there are two up and coming film directors from Thailand shining the world. Of course, Mr. Wong Kar-Wai saw the same thing and took one step farther to produce Thai film. It happened once again after Mr. Peter Chan produced "Sam gang (2002)", while I started my career as film critic in which I didn't understand at that time. 20+ years later, Korean and Thai film are already bypassed HK movie and take over Asian market, so what's happen? I finally understood the situation of HK Movie Industry when I got in. Anyway, Mr. Wong Kar-Wai shown the world Thai ver. Of "See You Tomorrow (2016)", also shown the world Hong Kong Film Producer can push to next level.

The best of Tor Thanapob films. Trailers and watching the whole movie are really different. The 2 lead actors performed excellently. This movie has a brilliant way of telling stories. And the story really touched me. I love this movie so much. I rated 10/10 without a doubt.

One for the Road is full of nostalgia as multiple genres come together including romance, buddy film, as well as sex-positive melodrama. The film had a wonderful soundtrack with some Cat Stevens music along with several mainstream hits, a strong production design, and a lovely mise-en-scene with exquisite cinematography and a touch of colorization. One For the Road follows a young Thai man, who is dying from cancer and has decided to make his final amends by delivering a parting gift to those closest to him on the earthly plane.

One For The Road is very visual, very visceral, and one I was sad to see it end after 136 minutes. But end it did and as the credits began to roll, there it was - a title revealing "Produced by Wong Kar Wai" - "... a filmmaker who specializes in making the evanescent tangible, in capturing fleeting emotions in a style that is always poetic, often ravishing and, despite his films' surface-level dreaminess, unerringly precise." I'm a huge fan of Mr. Wong's work so all I could do in that moment was sit and smile. What a wonderful gift. (Wong and Director Baz Poonpiriya worked together on One For The Road for three years.)

Director Baz Poonpiriya, a strong storyteller who has come into his own, had previously helmed Bad Genius the 2017 Thai box-office smashing and the record-breaking winner of twelve categories at the 27th Suphannahong National Film Awards (the Thai Oscars), before embarking on One For The Road with Wong. If you're a fan of Wong, this is a film you don't want to miss. And, if you're a fan of Thai film (Apichatpong Weerasethakul's 2010 Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives turned me on to Thai film), it's a must-see! Lastly, if you simply enjoy exquisitely told films, I highly recommend you see Baz Poonpiriya's One For The Road!

It's been a while since I last watched a movie that has just the perfect mixture of everything. Storytelling is brilliant that it blends some key important feelings with each people you cared for. Visual side is great all the way from roadtrip starts until the end. I really wanted to have such a great trip like what was in the movie.
