    Just got back from watching this -- in-f'n-credible. Easily one of my top 5 martial arts flicks ever. It hasn't gotten a lot of press, its a Thai movie with English subtitles, about a dude from....well, the plot doesn't really matter. Go see this movie!!

    i've seen a few commercials for this and thought it might be alright. i just wish the previews showed a little bit of action.

    I saw this over a year ago (same with "Hero"), as my cousin is an Asian movies freak. I bought a regionless copy for myself off of eBay about 6 months ago.

    It has one of the worst plots in the history of cinema, make no mistake. But dear god man, the fight scenes might be the best I've seen in any movie. Ever.

    Highly, highly recommended... at least if all you're looking for is some badass fight scenes.

    yeah it takes a bit for the action to start but once it does its amazing the scene where Jaa is running through the streets away from the mob is ridiculous. Him jumping through the barbed wire sliding underneath jeeps and the rest is incredible. I saw this movie on dvd last year and will see again on the big screen when I get a chance.


    If you are a fan of the martial arts genre this movie is a must
