I think I disagree with DM.
In fact I'm not sure we saw the same movie.
- Warehouse battle against 30 rogue extreme sports enthusiasts on skateboards, BMX bikes and ATVs wielding flourescent light bulbs
- Flaming temple fight against a swordsman, a guy with 'Pray' branded on his chest and a 7' tall wrestler
- Single-shot fight up 5 flights of stairs into a room of scorpion-eating gangsters
- Skyscaper fight against 30 men-in-black, 4 giant white guys and a dragon-lady with a whip.
Not a DOOM film?
This movie also had IMHO the BEST extras taking hits that you'd swear are fully-connecting. The foley guys have a field day with bone-snaps and some of the stunts are insane.
Yes, there are some draggy moments but we all need time to pour drinks, hit the head and smother crackers with cheese-balls.
Plus the elephant is really cute.
I do have a couple questions (my version was subtitled in Thai):
Who was the guy in the airport? Was he from Ong Bak? He looked familiar.
Why did the dragon lady poison those kids?
What happened to the Japanese-looking gangster after he shot the white guy the cop was holding as hostage?
