Ong Bak (DVD)

Ong-Bak is a fantastic film, its one of the best action films I have ever seen and is defintely the best Asian action movie. I don't think it was very high budget but Tony Jaa is an amazing martail artist/ actor, and made up for the lack in CGI by performing all his own stunts. ... Read review

Li in ONG-BAK: THE THAI WARRIOR, one of the first
films to centre on the ancient fighting system of
Muay Thai, which utilizes the body's limbs to
potentially devastating effect. Jaa stars as Ting,
a quiet young man who lives in the peaceful
village of Nong Pradu. As the village's special
celebration approaches, a Bangkok villain named
Don (Wannakit Siriput) steals the head of the
Buddha statue Ong-Bak, which is said to protect
the village from bad luck. Ting volunteers to go
to the big city to bring back the head of Ong-Bak,
but remembers what he was taught by sage monk Pra
Cru (Woranard Tantipidok): he must not use his
Muay Thai skills to harm people. However soon
after arriving in Bangkok, Ting, a peaceful fish
out of water, finds that the only way to recapture
the village's sacred treasure is by using his
arms, his legs--and his head. Influenced by the
films of Thai action star Phanna Rithikrai,
director Prachya Pinkaew hired the Muay Thai
expert to serve as martial arts and stunt
choreographer for ONG-BAK, resulting in highly
effective and believable scenes between Ting and a
multitude of criminals and evil boxers out to get
him. Pinkaew adds a fun sense of humour to the
serious story, not only in some of the crazy
stunts but also in the character of George, played
by Thai comic Petchthai Wongkamlao. Jaa is
charmingly fearless in the lead role, performing
all his own stunts without any special effects,
computer enhancement, or ropes.

1-4 of 4 reviews of Ong Bak (DVD)

The geatest Eastern film EVER!!...

Advantages: over 5 hours of amazing bonus material
Disadvantages: i cant think of any

..."kon dib Ihek nam pee", Ong Bak is definitely the superior. I have taken into consideration that "Kon dib Ihek nam pee" was a lower budget movie, but the story to it, the in-camera editing skills; they just weren't as good. Ong-Bak is much better.

The director, Prachya Pinkaew, has brought such films as the announced "sword" (also featuring Tony Jaa), "Cherm", and "7 pra-jan-barn". ...
...the other two and I wasn't as impressed as I was with Pinkaew's work on Ong-Bak.

As I said before, it was so worth the £10.99 it was purchased for. I definetely recommend this movie to anyone with at least half a brain. LOL :D

Thankyou very much for reading my review, I hoped you enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it. Feel free to leave any comments on how I can improve, I'm all ears.  ... more

High Flying Martial Arts Flick

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 ...

Ong-Bak, see it to believe it.

Advantages: Funny, exciting, amazing, great popcorn flick.
Disadvantages: The story is a little hokey. Who cares?

This is a fantastic film, I'll say that now. If you are already a Martial-Arts movie fan, you should believe the hype. I actually took quite a while to get round to seeing this one, but that was because I hadn't seen a good martial arts flick since... Jackie Chan! I hate Seagal, and Van Damme only has one or two good films. So when I finally watched Ong-Bak: my faith in 'chop-socky' films was reaffirmed. Balletic, exciting, there's even a little ...
...fight scenes, and incredible acrobatic feats that you watch this one for. The 'pants on fire' moment blew me away! When I first watched Jackie Chan (I was very young at the time) I was filled with a 'wish I could do that' sense of awe. Watching this film I felt the same way, and that's rare now that I am at a very jaded age. Very little cinema leaves me feeling the way this film does. A must watch movie, especially if you have been to Thailand! (which ...

Martial Arts Like You've Never Seen Before

Advantages: Tony Jaa...The Man Is Not Human
Disadvantages: Lack Of A Story

...does he do that?". With Ong Bak you see a breathtaking on screen debut from Tony Jaa and i guarentee you hav never seen a martial arts movie quite like this. The story line itself is very basic and predictable and really is just an excuse to showcase Jaa's rare talent, none the less you will be heavily entertained from start to finish. The co-stars also play a good part in the movie and are some what amusing and very clumsy. If you appreciate amazing ...

The most impressive martial artist in film.

Advantages: Amazing fight scenes and stunts, no wires so everything you see is for real.
Disadvantages: The plots aren't amazing but still watchable, not for people who don't like foreign films.

Ong Bak 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 the one fact that makes him better then those before him - he doesn't use wire's! There is no jumping over house's 'Crouching Tiger' style, no mid air fights with opponents freezing still in mid air for 30 seconds, just Tony Jaa doing incredible feats of agility and skill. If anyone doesn't believe he's not using wires I suggest you look up 'Tony Jaa high kick' on you tube and watch ...

Review of Tony Jaa Box Set - Ong-Bak/Warrior King (Collectors Editions) (Box Set) (DVD)

Ong Bak! woo!

Advantages: Fast paced action
Disadvantages: subtitled or dubbed

Ong bak, starring martial art, and gymastics genius Tony Jaa, is a must see for all martial art lovers. Although subtitled, (i dislike watching it dubbed) its a very good film, and the story is easy to follow. Tony jaa's character is a villager who has spent his life training in the arts of Muay thai, A thai martial art/ sport. His village believe that the condition of their statue Ong Bak bears resemblence to the wellbeing of the village. Basically all you need to know is, the bad guys who become annoyed at the village somehow, steals the head of the statue, and Tony jaa is sent to reclaim it swiftly kicking anyone who gets in the way in the face. (which he does quite a lot. The main aspect of the film is the fact that there are no stunt actors, and no strings or CGI everything you see Tony or others do. Its quite amazing to see ...

Review of Ong Bak (Subtitled And Dubbed) (Platinum Edition) (DVD)

Ah, what a martial arts film

Advantages: Fighting, fighting, story, and fighting
Disadvantages: Dubbing / Subtitles

I was given Ong Bak - and I'm glad I was. I am a fan of martial arts films - especially ones like Ong Bak. The best part of the film was the fact that the fights are realistic and - I'm reliably informed - mainly full contact fights. This wasn't like the majority of martial arts films - for a number of reasons. Firstly as I've said - the fights are realistic and genuine (ish). This makes it an excellent film for those martial arts fans / enthusiasts. Secondly there are no wires or CGI - making the film even more realistic. This means you watch the film in open-mouthed-awe at the skills of Tony Ja (especially the street-running scene) - aren't you annoyed by those unreal films. Finally - THERE'S A PLOT - it ain't no Lord of the Rings but a plot nevertheless - making it perfect to drag those reluctant friend / partner to ...
