A movie that reminds us of the beauty of simplicity, and the peacefulness that might come with it.

And if above I am mostly talking about it from a technical perspective, I should also note that such simplicity disfavors the movie in terms of plot/script.

All in all, it is a nice viewing experience if you go with an open mind.

A well-meaning piece, with some interest for anyone who wants to see what daily life in Bangkok is like. But, I have to say that it looks like one of any number of film school projects where the person is asked to "capture your daily world, and immortalize it on camera". Hoo boy...

The creator must have gotten something out of it. The viewer? Not so much. The soundtrack is invasive for such an underdeveloped story, and the "action"... Nobody deserves to sit through an 84-second closeup take of a hand inserting a memory stick into a computer.

Thematically, 36's best passages involve melodrama around sudden illness, which itself is VERY well-trodden territory in Thai popular cinema. Nor is there anything unusual or distinctive about the camera work -- although it is clean and skilled. Yes, 36 is professionally handled, but I couldn't help thinking that what we have here is a talented craftswoman who really needs to find someone else to give her a screenplay.
