Danny Leigh

Financial Times

The comedy is not quite so dark that her dysfunctional family have murderous plans — but elbows are still sharpened in a tale of everyday avarice.

Rated: 3/5

The Hollywood Reporter

Strong ensemble acting makes the family a believable unit, their differences notwithstanding. But it’s the evolving rapport between M and Amah that makes the film so captivating.

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

[How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies] is a perfect example of a movie about the journey rather than the destination.

Culture Mix

How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies is a charming and poignant story about family loyalty and love when dealing with complicated issues of caregiving for elderly people. The movie doesn't shy away from problems that arise from greed and betrayals.

Collider

Its genuinely difficult to think of a better feature debut in recent memory than How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies. This being the first movie of Pat Boonnitipat and Usha Seamkhum is genuinely remarkable.

Rated: 9/10

The story, character creation, concept, rhythm, picture, color, and music are all excellent. "The son gets the inheritance, the daughter gets cancer", lightly but straightforwardly expresses the deep-rooted imbalance in this seemingly unsolvable traditional concept. But there is no fairness in the world, and in the end, the family still relies on the inseparable love to find the forgotten true feelings and reach an understanding with each other. Isn't this the case for most of the thousands of families in reality?

The kind of movie where you stay a few minutes after— not because of a mid credits stinger, but because you need some time in the dark for the tears to dry…

The story is predictable, but I just can't hold back my tears. They did a great job showing grandma's love , which is not spoken but expressed silently. RIP grandma. Solid 10/10.
