...if you enjoy martial arts movies, Tony Jaa is simply amazing and is the next Jet Li/Bruce Lee/or whoever.He was in 'Ong-Bak - the Thai Warrior' a couple of years ago.
He does his own stunts and there is no CGI. One sequence where he goes up numerous flights of stair fighting all the way was filmed in one take.
The plot is superflous but if you want action, this film delivers it in spades.
There is an amusing scene early in the film where he bumps into Jackie Chan in an airport.
I was worn out by the end.
Blockbuster has an exclusive on the DVD.
