The Thai Empire Strikes Back   2010-03-14

The first Ong Bak rocked, and this movie rocks ever harder. I've seen tons of Awesome Martial Arts flicks in my years and this is one of the best movies I have ever seen. The story line has almost no link to the first Ong Bak. Even the feel of this movie is different. We only see the the Statue of Ong Bak in this movie a couple of times, but as a movie set 400 years or so before the time of the first movie, the plot makes sense. From a marketing perspective, the title Ong Bak 2 makes some ense also. In this century, Tony Jaa has become the most talented and athletic onscreen martial artists of our day. His movies keep getting better film after film. After Ong Bak and Tom Yum Goong, his third film improves 10 times over those first two. The historical setting of ancient Thailand is refreshing. The storyline is very well handled, I wasn't bored waiting for an action scene as many action movies do. When the action starts, the action never really lets up unless you reach a natural plot developement. Even the best of Jackie Chan movies just suddenly switch to fight scenes when you have no idea what the heck happened with the plot. Jaa uses a wide variety of Martial Arts Styles, techniques and weapons. From various forms of Kung Fu, to various Forms of Thai Martial Arts, as well as his uses of a variety of weapons including Ancient Thai swords, Japanese Katana Swords, and even a 3 section staff. Yes the movie ends in a Cliff Hanger, but so did Star Wars with the Empire Strikes back. I'm anxious to see how much Ong Bak 3 will improve over this spectacular movie.
BEST TONY JAA MOVIE YET   2010-03-14
By Dustin M. Garcia
Yo i dont know what movie Karen Shaub was watching cause the flow in the fights were flawless. form tony switching between Muay Thai (which by the way Karen how would u know how how many actuall Muay Thai moves he did in the movie since Tony studied and ancient form of Muay Thai for a year, that most people will never see in their lives.)to tiger claw to fihting with a dagger to a three sectional staff. C'om on he even throws hes own spin on druken master! The story is good it has a way of pulling u in. the only thing i didnt like was the random elephent sence that had nothing to do with the story of the movie. other than that it was awesome. cant wait for Ong Bak 3 2010!! and the new boneless fighting style that Tony is going to do in it.
Should not be considered part of ong- bak   2010-03-12
By Italo La Posta (U.S.A.)
The movie has some amazing fights, the plot is old and rehashed, and it has nothing to do with the ong-bak universe. Just because there is an eliphant in a Thai movie doesn't mean it's a sequel or prequel to ong-bak which was a great movie.
