gotta admit the Tai people make some RAW martial arts movies!


The story could have been better as most people will complain on here.

but some of the best straight up raw action flicks i've seen have been the Tai ones in the last 10 or so years.

I liked how they referenced ong bak in the video when shes watching movies lol this reminded me alot of ong bak.

I also as a Canadian like to see them starting to use english language in the film's

I've never been much for reading subtitles while watching a movie it always seems to break the immersion for me.

I think they are on the right track though.

A Full english movie with this much action would go viral in the western countries i think as people still love their martial arts films.

And as most realize now many of the main stars are getting older and cant pull off the same things they did once upon a time.

8/10 for me pretty good.

Their action is raw in a good way, yes. But their acting is raw, in a terrible way. I hope you did Not watch the dubbed version. I literally switched it back after six minutes in the movie. Also The first 15 minutes of this movie was probably the worst ever since Lies and illusions (slater/gooding jr). But since I paid five dollars for this movie I kept watching it and it was not that bad afterall. Acting: 5/10 (The main character is really kick ass) Plot: 3/10 Cinematography: 5/10 Music: 6.5/10 Action: 7.5/10
So overall, I will give this visually low-budget movie 6/10. critics like yours hyped me up into buying this movie which was way below my expectations.
