Bak Ong

[thelefteyeguy]

Sorry if anyone else posted this topic before...

I caught Bak Ong....great thai boxing action....very brutal.
You can compare this movie to Jackie Chan's earlier movies. The storyline is the typical kung fu movie, but the action is superb...i'd recommend this to anybody.

only pet peeve was the action shots had a tendency to "repeat again" on a different camera angle....kind of got annoyed afterwards

[Degenerate]

the movie is called Ong-Bak : Muay Thai Warrior

great movie, awesome martial arts. The repitition of camera angles is to show that he never used wires in the movie. It's kinda like that homo Van Damm with this triple takes of his kick except they show the same angle over and over again which makes it look less impressive.

Any English dubs/subtitles yet?

I liked this movie but I was also annoyed by the repetition of some scenes from different angles. My fav fight was with the asian guy with the afro :D

change the thread title... the movie is called Ong Bak... not Bak Ong... it doesn't make sense if you say Bak Ong in Tha or Chinese..

[chinaboy1021]

the language is brutal on the ears.

[cheukiecfu]

anyway... i have seen this movie a long time ago...almost a year?
there isn't much about the story, but the fighting is definitely worth to watch...

*swift knee to the throat*

or *flying double elbows on neck*

Ong Bak was a great martial arts film. Tony Jaa's hardcore.

I've heard people say the same about Cantonese and Mandarin (and Punjabi and German as well ;)).

This is definitely one of the best fighting movies of all time. The action is absolutely brutal. I don't know how some guys were able to "fake" taking those nasty hits. The guy's form is just superb, he's a terrific physical specimen (no homo). I have it on DVD but I'll watch it in theatres for sure to give everyone involved in the movie some support.

[dell]

I'm assuming its dubbed so I hope it doesn't fall in the stereotype of the usual bad voice dub ruining the movie senario.

[plucky duck]

The girl's voice in that movie is incredibly annoying. Whoever is her b/f I feel very sorry for him, lol.

But yeah, the fight scenes are excellent, aside from the multiple stupid angle shots then keep on showing.

Yeah, great moves without any wire fu. I heard they are making a sequel already.

The Subtitles are even MORE BRUTAL to our Eyes and Brain.

To those who have the dvd. Im sure that it didn't make any sense. My friends dvd didn't. LOL...i was just laughing at how way off the subtitles were. hehehe...BUT AMAZING MOVIE! Gotta see it in theatres when it comes out.

LOL, the subtitles were a riot! Added to the value of the movie for me. Nuts to the plot, it's all about the FOITIN'!

[tinlunlau]

they're not making a sequel to "Ong Bak". they're making a new movie called "Tom Yum Goong". There will also be a game for the PC based on the movie (btw, Tony Jaa does motion capture work for the game).

[Xtahse]

^
isnt tum yum goong a thai spicy soup?

[ragin_pyro]

[DVST8]

In regards to Ong Bak....Have you seen Tony Ja's other movie called "BEAUTIFUL BOXER" ?? if so...is it any good? any reviews?

[UrbanPoet]

nah. mandrian isnt harsh at all. It isnt a TOnal language and is farrr from a tonal language.
