Leio

A disrespectful movie to audience. They put a lot of money on making cgi (which came out bad)and try so hard to promote it, instead of trying to write a good plot or find a good actors.

Jokes are not funny.

Dialogue seems not in the real world.

Characters didn't act reasonable.

Most importantly, the movie was not even entertain.

This movie was so horrible it was ridiculously funny. It did provide some very mindless entertainment. The English dubbing was poorly written as real people do not speak that way. Blame it on the translation for using a more formal version of English rather then real world English.

Others have commented on the acting. The acting seems bad as the spoken part does not really align with the body language of the actors.

The cgi is deplorable at best.

With better translations, voices that match the bodies of the actors, and improved CGI. It might get 4-5 stars.

Not a total waste of time but you have to be willing to watch a really stupid movie.

I always support Thai cinema but I have to be honest as well. I watched this movie with little expectation due to its negative criticism which seemed to surpass appreciation. Even so, I found that the movie was still lacking all the elements monster films should have. The giant lizard itself was far inferior to those we have seen in the classic works. It was less scary, less mysterious, less powerful. The dialogues sounded unnatural. The acting looked unconvincing or, at least, it could be better. The storyline didn't captivate my attention. It was filled too much with unnecessary situations.

If the filmmaking team was more careful about the screenplay and acting, the movie would come out finer.

I had high hopes for this movie. Because this movie company advertises a lot. But it came out so bad it was B GRADE MOVIES.

I hope the next story won't be this bad again. Because Thai movies only have good concept movies but the script is very bad.

The synopsis and the cover/poster for this 2022 Thai action adventure movie titled "Leio" definitely seemed interesting, and it was that which initially made me pick up this movie. Sure, I hadn't even heard about "Leio" prior to sitting down to watch it, but from the synopsis then it seemed like this could be a movie much akin to the likes of "Tremors" perhaps.

And thus I opted to sit down and watch "Leio", and I managed to get through about two-thirds of the movie, then I just gave up on it, as the storyline had very little appeal actually. The plot was not catching on with me, and I didn't care one bit about the one-dimensional characters that milled about on the screen.

"Leio" runs for about two and a half hours, which simply is way too long, especially since there isn't even proper contents to the script to fill out half that amount of time whilst keeping the movie interesting and entertaining. So it was quite a drag to suffer through this prolonged play time.

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble here, but the actors and actresses had very little of any proper material and contents to work with in terms of script, plot and character gallery. So they were somewhat challenged.

Visually, however, then "Leio" was quite good. The reptile looked very realistic and the CGI team really put a good effort into this project. But CGI effects can only do so much for a movie that lacks appeal and entertainment value.

My rating of director Chalit Krileadmongkon's 2022 movie "Leio" lands on a generous three out of ten stars.
