When watching
a really good kick-ass martial arts movie, I don't worry about the plot.
Hell, the only criteria is the ACTION. There's merely one question: "Does
this movie bring something new to the plate·" In the case of this
entry from fight-meister guru Panna Rittikrai (the director behind ONG
BAK), the answer is a royal-flush in mindblowing mayhem.
···
In a nutshell,
we've seen the plot before (in stuff like UNDERGROUND
and the more lurid SPORT
KILL), a group of fighters are tricked into thinking they're qualifying
for a TV reality show when in fact they're in a battle for their own survival
while wealthy bastards put bets on their heads. But, the fight scenes
are so intense... so fresh... so real... so devastating, nothing else
is important. Don't think. See this one!
