Ong Bak: Muay Thai extravangaza

[flan_man]

I watched this movie yesterday, and left theatres totally impressed. The stuff this lead character (Tony Jaa aka Panom Yeerum) manages to pull off is unbelievable, and it easily puts him between other legends like Jackie Chan, Jet Li and yes even Bruce Lee.

Not much of a story here, but the choreography and cinematography of the fighting and pursuit scenes more than make up for that.

Apparently Jaa did all of the jumping antics without any help from trampolines and such. Wicked.

Looks good, that jump through the hole is amazing.

Saw it a while ago. Awesome martial arts flick. No wires and special effects at all.

Getting = buying? So far, I've seen it listed at www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-7k-70-4fn-4-7.html.

Unfortunately it doesn't come with english subtitles. Not that the story is particularly noteworthy but still...

I don't mind buying it, but I'd really want it to be with subs
