ChFilm to Miss: Lost in Thailand (2012)

Lost in Thailand (2012) 


(Chinese Film) 

Scientist Xu Lang has made a breakthrough in fossil fuel use, creating an additive that increases the volume of usable fossil fuel, although it is not yet ready for commercial use. Despite his marriage being on the brink of breakup, he takes a trip to Thailand to convince an investor to back further funding. Once in Thailand he realizes his colleague turned nemesis Gao Bo is attempting to reach the investor before him, so he can sell the additive as-is. Xu Lang uses the simpleton Bao Bao who had been sitting next to him on the plane to try and throw Gao Bo off his trail. Instead, Xu Lang loses his passport and has to rely on Bao Bao to travel around Thailand, and wacky escapades ensue. Will Xu Lang reach the investor before his nemesis, or will Bao Bao lead them into disaster?

*I would classify this film as a bromance action-adventure with some comedy. Ir's also definitely at least a PG-13 rating for situations and language, and while the scenery is interesting and beautiful, I probably wouldn't watch this again. I think it's supposed to be more of a comedy, but I don't think all of the humor translated. I probably won't watch this again.*
