aka: "Muay Thai Warrior" (U.S. DVD title)
Fairly average; as usual for these sorts of action films, the only real entertaining parts are the fight scenes... that and actor Thanawut Ketsaro's crazy hair: http://www.imdb.com/media/rm542745088/tt1905010
(he's the one pictured to the right and behind the Japanese lead actor, Seigi Ozeki)
It is interesting to note that the film is (loosely) based on a real historical figure from Thailand's history. While we got a good idea for the main character's motivations for leaving his home country behind and joining the Ayothaya royal guard, I never really understood why there was such a large number of Japanese in Siam during that time period. Maybe it was explained better in a different translation. 11 years 2 months ago
