Ong Bak 2

Supposed to be an epic movie with Tony Jaa as an warrior knowing various martial arts set in ancient Khmer. Quite true on the martial arts part, no doubt this guy can show a really good fight with action stunts sequence not seen in other films.

It was so called ancient Garuda, assume is some sort of empire, Jaa as Tien is the son of diligent and loyal officer but his father and mother was killed by a scheming rat cha sei na. He then killed the King and put the blame on Tien's father.

Tien has to survive if not no more movie. But was captured by some bandits and thew him into some fight in some kind of "Kids vs Crocodile" performance. Another group of bandits lead by Cherchean disrupted the performance, killed the other bandits. Anyway, Tien killed the croc.

Then he was taken in by Cherchean, the leader of the Garuda bandits. Taught him all kinds of martial arts by the different masters. He grew and excel in the fights, began to lead the bandits in raids. But he still want to avenge his father death, he need to kill rat cha sei na. So he told cherchean his plan then he left. Either by MRT or bus, he somehow reached his HQ, palace, whatever. They are celebrating something, Tien became one of the performer. He charged towards rat cha sei na, who apparently has been using SK II and Lamer, didn't age at all. Tien slashed about 4,257,172,893 times on him, then left.

He returned to cherchean but found he was surrounded by mask men, almost all dressed differently. Tien was good but not that good, then as it revealed, Mr SK II didn't die, he was wearing at least 200 kg of titanium around him at that time. Then cherchean appeared, Mr SK II told Tien, he was the actual one that killed his father. Tien was hysterical but still can fight, anyway chercean was going to exchange his own life for killing his father.

Tien was captured and tortured bit by bit. Most probably he was send to Upper Serangnoon. 6/10
