Pretty funny, cool action

“break a leg out there, would ya?”

Loggodover5.0July 12

The first half is actually horrendous with god awful editing in its chase scenes and lacking in ANY of the charm that made Ong Bak really good but then it remembers that it stars Tony Jaa and then has some legit amazing fight scenes plus the main villainess is really cool. Like she’s an actually good example of trans representation with a trans actress and a really interesting motivation and backstory???? But a lot of the non action in this movie is really bad with random diversions in the plot and awful dialogue/acting (at least with Ong Bak all of it was foreign so you couldn’t really tell)
