「我看電影往往按導演出發，就如人家看連載小說般。我不特別喜歡Wisit的電影，但他的電影還是有有趣的地方。」﹣ 肥力
“I followed the films by their directors, which the way is similar to following a long fiction or a soap opera. Wisit has not been my favourite director, however, his film has something which attracts me.” – Eric Spanner
28/7, 7:15pm《老虎頭上結情疤》Fa Thalai Jon / The Tears of Black Tiger (2000) (片長110分鐘/mins)
豪門女，窮家子，山盟海誓，再加槍戰連場。分明向四五十年前的英雄美人片取材，拍得四平八穩，但外加特濃彩色。Wisit的首部長片。片上英文字幕。
The following may belong to half of a century ago: a girl from rich family and a boy from poor family, they love each other and want the love be forever, with a lot of gun fighting. A proper made movie with strong colour. Tears of Black Tiger, The is the first feature of Wisit, and we play it with English subtitles.
4/8, 7:15pm《大狗民》Ma Nakhron / Citizen Dog (2004) (片長99分鐘/mins)
第二部片繼續大用特濃色彩，但時空已搬回今日曼谷。玩手指，玩膠樽，玩神秘文字，玩bear bear，沒有玩弄的，可能是片中主角的愛情。電影中文情節簡介: http://www.cinemathai.com/stills/2004/CitizenDog-2004/index.b5.shtml
Strong colours again, and the place is today’s Bangkok. You can find fingers, plastic bottles, a mysterious language, a teddy bear, and love between Pod and Jin in the film. Brief Synopsis: http://www.cinemathai.com/stills/2004/CitizenDog-2004/index.en.shtml
11/8, 7:15pm The Unseeable/ Pen choo Kab Phee (2005) (片長93分鐘/mins)
是否抄襲不敢斷言，但Wisit這回又玩懷舊，怕是真的。恐怖因為有鬼，而鬼，不只是寡婦Ranjwan死去的丈夫，據說也包括教Ranjwan著迷的情夫。甜的吃苦的也吃，且看兩部奇片之後的第三部，會否令你徹底失望，或因想檢錯拾爛變得目不暇給。
「為甚麼導演會接拍一部劇本平平無奇的恐怖片？為甚麼導演竟放棄舊日色彩斑斕，妙想天開的 pop-art風格，改以淡茶色的濾鏡，在平實的場景以平板的手法拍攝？為甚麼這電影的畫面、佈局、甚至結局、都跟西班牙導演 Alejandro Amenábar 的《the Others》（《不速之嚇》）(2001)如此過分地相似？」- Garrick, Safari Underground
Without watching Amenábar’s world, I cannot agree or disagree with Garrick. However, Wisit returns to the old days again. A thriller with ghost – ghosts are Ranjwan’s husband who has passed away, and, it is said, Ranjwan’s lover. Follow a director’s work often implies follow all his or her works, no matter good or bad. Please find yourself the third feature of Wisit’s is disappointing, or still interesting.
Why the director took a thriller script without twists? Why he did not adopt the pop-art style with colours, and turn to light-tan filters, plain scene and plain techniques? Why this film is almost the same to Alejandro Amenábar’s Others, The (2001), from frame, plot, and the end? – Garrick, Safari Underground
