Pales in comparison to more technically accomplished martial arts vehicles (particularly Jackie Chan's who Jaa clearly wants to emulate) but as an excuse to display Jaa's freaky athleticism (those chase scenes are nail-bitingly stunning), this remains engaging and watchable - it's just a shame that the plotty moments are labored and ultimately a bit confusing, despite the relatively straight forward (and familiar) narrative.

If you know much about the technicalities of martial arts, then you might be able to see past the poor production and directing decisions. But my taste for martial arts movies only goes skin deep, and I need to see some flashy moves or inventive violence/gore to be impressed, "Ong-Bak" doesn't really have a whole lot of that, but I can't say anything bad about the fighting. The rest, though, there are plenty of things I could say.

I think it's the music that makes this too '2000s'. Part of the charm of other films is the rapid fire acrobats of kung fu, but the replays and slow-mos make this grating

It’s ugly and the music is awful, but it’s earnest, effective, and surprisingly funny. And the main event … Tony Jaa is superhuman. The slow-motion replays are extraordinarily cheesy and cheap, but the filmmakers weren’t wrong; I wanted to see his incredible athleticism from every angle. For the combat alone, this film is eminently worth watching.

While Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior may be no great shakes as a movie, critics are hailing the emergence of a new star in Tony Jaa, whose athletic performance is drawing comparisons with Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, and Jet Li.

Terrible action-hero fare glorifying violent Buddhist extremism, with lame fights riddled by slow-motion replays. It's a shame because I was curious to see what a Muay-Thai feature would look like.

The directing and lighting and fight scenes seem like a David Fincher movie, albeit less crazy and not as dark. All of the performances are good as well as the writing and directing, even if it does seem to get a little cheesy and reach the mindless action territory. However it's very entertaining and never. Gets boring. I enjoyed it.
