I like action-comedies; I like Thai films; I particularly like Thai-style action... but this one doesn't fit into that niche of excellence, the humour is daft and I found myself holding my finger on the FF button 12 minutes in to see if the action sequences picked up - god knows the "comedy" wasn't my cup of tea!Unfortunately, the action stayed mundane up until the 24 minute mark which is when I'd had enough and turned this film off.With all the cool Thai action flicks out there, it's no wonder this slipped under the radar, and believe me: for the average viewer, it's best off that way.
I watched this movie in German dubbed version ... and it's badly dubbed too. Which is a shame, but then again, I don't think the original soundtrack would have elevated this movie in my opinion! You get here a (strange) comedy/action hybrid, that can't decide what it really is. And that get's annoying. So even the few good ideas that it has, get squashed. It's a shame, because this movie could have been really good. When I say good, I mean like in a silly b-movie style! Although the movie is silly, it does not have that much of a charm to get you involved or laughing through. I don't think that there will be an audience outside of Thailand for that movie. But I can't even say, if Thai people are going to like it.One thing is for sure, there are much better movies coming out of Thailand, like Tears of the black Tiger!
