Do Thai films in cinemas in Thailand have English subtitles?

Most always in central Bangkok the Thai films will have English subtitles, especially if they are from a major studio like Sahamongkol, GTH, Phranakorn, Five Star or RS Film. Some small studio and independent releases won’t have the subs. If you’re not sure, ask at the box office. Often, seeing a Thai film in the cinema will be the only way you can see it with subtitles, because when they are released on DVD in Thailand, there are no English subtitles and not all Thai films are released in English-friendly territories (see FAQs about Thai films on DVD). However, outside of the Bangkok metro area (but still in Thailand), sometimes the Thai films will not have subtitles.
