Suriyothai (Thailand) (2001)

An extraordinary film, Suriyothai is an epic historical motion picture that portrays one of Thailand’s foremost heroines, Phra Suriyothai. Her actions would unite her people and win the war against an unstoppable enemy. She is the queen who fought and died to protect her husband and king’s life, while advancing into battle against the invading Burmese battalion in the 14th century. This is her story…
Review: Every now and then, there will be a film that individuals will find themselves on the “hate it” or “love it” side. Thailand’s recent Suriyothai is one such movie that falls into this division. Many have deemed it the “Braveheart” of Asia, while others have considered it otherwise. Though this film by Chatrichalerm Yukol bears its similarities to Braveheart, I cannot categorize this movie into the same niche as that film. I believe Suriyothai can stand on its own merit entirely against any epic historic piece of work. It’s a story of one woman’s strong will and love for her king and country that drives this movie, and also what makes it all work out in the end.
