En Of Love: Love Mechanics (Thai Series)

Love Mechanics is the second installment of the En of Love series. Consisting of 4 episodes of about 30-40 minutes each, it is an easy watch, although its still a very messy and boring watch. Just slightly better than its predecessor, it share a lot of the same problems. The only good thing here s that the leads have more charisma here.

Mark had a crush on Bar but his heart gets broken. He gets drunk and meets Vee who knows Mark from common friends circle. See sees how drunk Mark is and is making sure that he is ok. In the process the two guys end up kissing. The next morning they are both embarrassed, especially since Vee has a girlfriend. But Mark starts having feelings for Vee and See feels the same and keeps finding excuses to spend time with Mark. But when Vee's friends tell him that his girlfriend has been cheating on him, he can't take it and he becomes a couple with Mark. The next two episodes focus on their courtship, jealousy, return of ex-girlfriend, more misunderstandings and finally the couple coming together and accepting each other.

Simple story, basic execution and amateur treatment; the series is saved by the cute Mark's smile and side glances that he looks Vee. Vee's character IMO is quite toxic. He keeps moving from Mark to girlfriend to back to Mark as per his convenience and even tries to justify it to Mark. Mark is no less and feels like a serial dater. The whole start of their relationship, the way to is carried forward and everything else, I can guarantee that in real life this couple won't last more than a few months. Also, there is a thin line between possessive and obsessive. The fact that he says that Mark cannot meet anyone, can't hang out with anyone, can't swim in front of anyone etc, would be a strict no-no in my books. He is clearly control freak, trying to prove he is the "man". Just marginally better than part one of this show, I would still rate this show as pretty low. Mark's charisma is the only saving grace here. (2.5/10)
