A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Jan Dara is movie about a person,who was raised in an immoral household, that never had a chance to escape his destiny. The main character, Jan Dara, played magnificently by Eakarat Sarsukh, never got a chance to experience true love but instead lived life having a different beliefs and outlook about sex and relationships. You feel sad for the him as he was raised differently due to the complicated people that he lived with and he never get to experience happiness and fulfillment in life. The movie is worth-watching. It has a mix of drama and eroticism. The acting was good but especial mention must be given to Sarsukh as he was able to get the sympathy of the viewer. The only thing about this film is that people can get confused easily especially to those who doesn't speak Thai to keep up with the complexities of the story and the character. It really requires 100% attention to fully appreciate the highly recommended film.

the plot is messed up, like everyone is immoral and all...i watched this twice and it still disturbs me the way everyone is like, all obsessed with sex and desires... I guess the worst part of all was the end...where no one knows who Jan Dara's father is...because her mother was kidnapped and rapped...and this is where the entire story mixed with love and hatred begins! She got home alive and pregnant, and her family didn't want others to know about it, so they forced her to marry this rich man, who turns out to be Jan's uncle/ stepfather--the man who keeps torturing Jan. His mom died, and the uncle married his aunt (her mom's younger sister) instead. His aunt was always really and genuinely nice to Jan. Jan's aunt and the uncle gave birth to a daughter--a super annoying bitch. One day the uncle hooked up with another woman (Christy Chung) and she moved in officially. The uncle slept with her daughter and the obnoxious daughter got pregnant with her dad's (the uncle's) baby!! NOW IT GETS REALLY MESSED UP! Her dad, aka the Uncle, became impotent ever since. Then he made her daughter marry Jan--they hated each other, but it was chiefly a torture for the daughter because she'd always been a lesbian. Jan slept with Christy, his uncle's mistress, and the uncle saw them...he died (I think) of stroke then. On the other hand, Jan hated the daughter so much he raped her, and strangely, he also becomes impotent ever since. OK--the WEIRDEST part! Remember that Jan's wife (the obnoxious daughter) is a lesbian?!! Jan bumped into Christy sleeping with her!! Luckily, the wonderfully nice aunt decided to leave the crazy household to become a nun.

The narrator of the film, is left to live with his father after his mother dies while giving birth. The latter despises him and he find comfort in his aunt who is like a mother to him.As the men in the household seem hardly able to go a day without sex, new characters and children are added to the picture. The relationships and roles of those characters change as the movie progresses, fuelled by strong emotions such as lust and loneliness.The plot is strong enough to captivate the audience, while the movie itself is eye-candy. Most of the scenes are shot in the house, but they are done beautifully, never getting boring or repetitive. The colours are pale, making the characters even more alive. Finally, the performances are outstanding.I totally recomend it.

Rapes , incests , and of course curses, a boring and mentally unhealthy story about a series of love affairs under the same two roofs , it's in Thailand but you won't see much of the country and culture here... of course there are sex scenes but these are of course also boring
