Light Comedy of Deception and Love: The Con-Heartist | A Review

๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿš˜๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ’Get ready for a rollercoaster ride of laughter and suspense with The Con-Heartist!



            The Con-Heartist is a Thai film with a comedy genre interspersed with a little romance. This film aired on Netflix Indonesia in 2020, starring Baifern Pimchanok as Ina and her co-partner Nadech Kugimiya as Tower. Several supporting actors who joined Ina and Tower's plan also made the story even more hilarious, such as Thiti Mahayotaruk as Petch, Kathaleeya Mclntosh as Mrs. Nongnuch, and Pongsatorn Jongwilas as Jone. Tells the story of Ina, a banker and reviewer on her YouTube channel who was conned over the telephone by Tower, however, Ina did not report him to the police but instead wanted him to help her con Petch, her ex-boyfriend, who in the past used her money.



            Ina, blinded by her love for Petch, was willing to be tricked and taken advantage of by Petch, her ex-boyfriend who was younger than her. Petch, who really needed a 'Sugar Mommy' who could help with his finances, cheated Ina out of 500 Baht. Then, in the present, Ina meets Tower as a victim and fraudster on the telephone. Initially, Ina wanted to report Tower to the police for deceiving her, but after thinking twice she decided to meet after Tower made her an offer to help her get revenge on Petch.



            At that moment, the excitement and humor of their story began, with the help of Mrs. Nongnuch and Jone who helped their con plan succeed. They take advantage of Petch's money-hungry attitude and like women who are older than him (and of course those who can fulfill his needs, such as Sugar Mommy) with Mrs. Nongnuch pretending to be rich and being the Director of the company and tempting Petch into liking her. There is a scene that is very funny and makes you laugh out loud between Ina and Petch, as well as help from Jone who tricked Petch into offering him a high hotel price of 3,000,000 Baht.

        Because of their sudden closeness, Ina's feelings for Tower emerged. However, Ina's innocent attitude contrasts with Tower's clever and brave attitude, making Tower plan to take all of Ina's 500 Baht, if their plan is successful. This makes the story even more interesting and exciting. Tower became doubtful about his feelings for Ina and his ego about having the 500 Baht.



            After finding out about Tower's cunning tricks again to take her money, Ina was sad and heartbroken because she was once again lied to by the man she liked. However, after a second chance, they continued with their plan. The Con-Heartist has several plot twists that make the audience unexpected and make them laugh to themselves.



            The Con-Heartist has a happy ending, where their plan succeeds in deceiving Petch and making his career fail, and Tower, who turned into a good and successful person, becomes brave enough to express his feelings to Ina. This film is very good and funny. It's very suitable to watch together at any time, especially just to pass the time, because the comedy story is very light and full of unexpected scenes that make us laugh continuously while the film is playing. Even though there are a few scenes that are a bit disgusting, that's not a problem because we will focus on the comedy scenes. So, it is highly recommended and I give it a rating of 9/10. Almost the entire film is very enjoyable. You have to watch it because you won't regret it!๐Ÿ’™
