Pretty good movie with lots of awesome muay thai boxing in it.

I actually saw that when it was in the theaters...

The chick is really cute!

If you can handle the foreign language/ English subtitles... it's a decent flick!

I had to back up the DVD and watch it a few times. It was awesome.

Yup! The action in the movie was great! The guy actually has a new movie coming out. The title just escapes me now.

But that guy moves great! Can't get over the fact that in most of the action sequences that he performed, I don't think they used any "wires" on him.

I can't find this damn movie on DVD anywhere, went to 3 places yesterday, all missing it. Best Buy told me they're getting 68 copies in today or tommorrow, but other than that no store in Miami has a copy.

I don't think they used any "wires" on him.

That's part of the appeal of the movie, no wires. Saw the guy on Fox & Friends when the movie opened. They performed a stunt where the guy takes two steps, jumps on the shoulders of a line of people and runs across them. Excellent in my book, looks like he defies physics.

Yeah, Yeah Tracker... But it hit me the other day that I missed release day, and wanted to watch it in like 10 minutes. I found it yesterday, but couldn't find time to watch it yet.

I took the movie home to Mom (Thai) and she lent it to some friends. Haven't seen it since.

Oh, well, guess that's a good reason to get another copy for my house.

Saw this in Feb. at the Alamo Draft House...the entire theatre was howling and screaming at this flick it was crazy fun.

The new flick has more of the same. Looks fun. Send me an IM for a link to the new flick's trailer if you haven't seen it yet.

Funny, my brother was just raving about it the other day. Didn't look terribly interesting.

It's a pure action flick....thin plot, awesome action. Things to be aware of when watching movies you know?

But the action's awesome.

And your brother and I liked it. So you should watch it.

Cool fight scenes... totally lame movie. It was probably about as ghey as Van Dams early movies like Bloodsport and Kickboxer.

The fighting technique of smashing the top of people's heads with an elbow and whatnot were certainly interesting. Not sure I believe people would get up so quickly from hits like those.
