High Flying Martial Arts Flick
Review of Ong Bak (Vanilla) by mcicp19

Advantages: Breath taking martial arts and agility
Disadvantages: Poor story

Ong Bak is the 2003 film directed by Prachya Pinkaew, choreographed by Panna Rittikrai, starring the great Tony Jaa as Ting, and Thai comedian Petchtai Wongkamlao and George (Humlae). The thing with Tony Jaa is he doesn't have the screen presence on Bruce Lee, or the charisma of Jackie Chan, but what he can do is perform fight scenes better than anyone before him. It takes Jaa atleast twice as long as his predecessors to make a movie because of ...
...a ancient buddah statue named Ong Bak has been stolen. The statue is worshipped by the village's people so Ting decides he will find Ong Bak at any cost. This leads him to the big city were he meets his cousin Humlae (Wongkamlao) who has renamed himself George (for reasons I'll let you find out) who takes a interest in Ting's quest after seeing the amount of money the village have given him. The main story isn't exactly the most compelling in the ... Read review

Bruce Lee Story
Review of Dragon - The Bruce Lee Story (Wide Screen) by lesleyanne18

Advantages: Excellent Movie, Brilliant Acting
Disadvantages: Aparrently not full truth to life

The Bruce Lee Story Last night I sat in at watched this movie on TV, I am not very into martial arts but I like life stories so I watched it. Basic Intro… It started off as Bruce Lee as a young boy living in china with his father and his father is teaching him how to fight and defend himself in the real world. His father had no choice but to send his son away once he was old enough in order for him to have a better life. So off he went to America ...
...he was seen very different by the Americans. One day as he was working out in the gym, he was spotted for his moving skills and his fighting skills and was asked to teach the people what he knows. So, he started teaching his fighting moves, it started with 2 boys, then 1 girl, then a huge class. It was this class where he met his wife and his career started…… Jason Scott Lee Stars as Bruce Lee, and he was brilliant in this movie, he had the look, ... Read review

==Martial arts and insane stunts==
Review of Warrior King DVD by AeroEngineer69

Advantages: Cheap and entertaining
Disadvantages: Poor plot and acting

Ignore the plot, ignore the acting, this film has awesome stunts and insane martial arts fight sequences. If you love martial arts films or are a big Jackie Chan, Bruce Lee and Jet Li fan then you will love this. Its a big step forward from the previous film Ong-bak. Memorable moments include the one take 4 minute fight scene and the Thai boxing v Capoeira and Kung fu in a burning temple masterpiece. As before there is no wire work or CGI its all ... Read review

The Best Bruce Lee movie
Review of Fist Of Fury (Subtitled and Dubbed) (Wide Screen) by anoop_mair

Advantages: great fight scene
Disadvantages: not well recognised

...and the fight sequences in Fist of Fury are awesome, especially the nuncucka scene in the dojo. The basic plot of this film is someone has killed Bruce's master and when he returns he detects foul play so tries to find out who is at the bottom of his masters death kick some serious butt The main thing that convinces me that this is the better movie is the english dubbing, its the funniest thing ever and its what makes this film a cult classic. ...
