Overacting

When her retired father’s memories slip back to his days as a top cop, a struggling actress and her gang stage over-the-top fake missions to protect him from pursuing his elusive criminal arch nemesis.

Overacting, an outrageously over-the-top comedy film from Netflix, delivers full-throttle madness from director Prueksa Amaruji and executive producer Rergchai Poungpetch, the masterminds behind hit comedy phenomena such as Bikeman and Riam Fighting Angel. The duo returns with a wildly chaotic, roller-coaster ride of a story.

When Winai, a legendary retired tough cop, finds his memories slipping back to his glory days along with an unfinished grudge against the elusive arch-nemesis he spent his life chasing, he puts his police uniform back on to take down bad guys once more. This prompts his daughter Woranuch, a struggling actress, to join forces with her gang of former child-star friends and her ex-flame Sergeant Toy, a young traffic cop. Together, they put on the performance of a lifetime, staging over-the-top fake missions to protect Winai. However, their outrageous scheme spirals into chaos when Sua Hao, Winai’s arch-nemesis, resurfaces to commit real crimes. What starts as staged theatrical missions escalates into a hilarious, action-packed showdown where everyone must go all-out, ultimately asking a heartfelt question: how far would you go over-the-top for the ones you love?
