 A New Action Star On The RiseSep 06, 2010
Ong Bak is about a man named Ting who lives in a village. One day the buddha head is stolen and Ting goes after the bandits. The story was played out well. The sound was good. The action scenes were choreographed well. You will be amazed by Tony Jaa. So check out this great action movie and you won't regret it.

A must watchJul 21, 2010
This film in a way reminds me of when I first saw Bruce Lee's "The Big Boss" back in 1971. A simple country fella, with fighting skills, goes to the big city and destroys a gangster and his crew. Back in 1971 kung fu action like this had never been seen on the American screen. It was electrifying. And to be honest, in a crowded saturday night movie theatre (double featured with "The Omega Man") the loopy dubbed english dialogue, the simple film style, and the seemingly impossible kicks and moves were greeted with laughs. But it was the seed from which a legend would grow. I felt the same excitement while watching Ong-Bak. A simple honorable man, with incredible skills, cleans house. Using a combination of Muay Thai and moves inspired by studying Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan and Jet Li films Tony Jaa along with a strong base of acrobatic skills simply astounds. A highly enjoyable film with an engaging and skillfull star.

Tony Jaa movie_ "Ong-Bak The Thai Warrior"Jun 06, 2010
Tony Jaa may not talk a lot in this movie, but he doesn't have to with all the wonderful other stuff he does thru-out the movie! I would highly recommend this movie if you are a marial arts fan because Tony has the grace of a dancer that can kick your butt. Some of the action that he does, they show it to you from 2 - 4 different angles before they leave that scene, it is that awesome. SO, not really a review of the movie other than it is kind of a simply plot line, but I just can't say enough about Tony Jaa, WATCH IT!
Good movieMay 16, 2010
It's pretty simple really, this movie is good, Tony Jaa isn't going to win an oscar anytime soon, but man can he kick some butt. His moves are awesome, and he is so fast. I liked this one so much I actually ordered a few of his other movies. The action is great, the acting maybe not quite so much, but no body watches these kinds of movies for it's superb acting and dialogue, right? My only complaint is why is it when they dub voices, they feel the need for the Asian woman to sound like an annoying twelve year old, that drives me nuts. But this movie is definitely a must have for any martial arts fan.
 Gift buyApr 20, 2010
Bought this as a gift for my neighbours. Quality wasn't as high as expected, but still works just fine.
