Hey martial arts fans! Are ready to get your guts kicked out?

Wuuuu-Taaaang! So Wu-Tang.. the Wu-Tangiest!

Mark my words, this will be placed among the greatest martial arts films of all time. I'm talkin' Master Killer, Fists of Fury, Drunken Master, Once Upon a Time in China, etc.

I don't want to get you too hyped, so caution; this has nothing to do with Ong Bak except that it stars Tong Jaa and there's a cliffhanger ending a la Reloaded.

Tony Jaa is RZA sharp in all his movements. They set up some nice bits with the obligatory training sequence where he learns various styles + weapons. He starts off with a kenjutsu battle; strategic, refined, precise; then a kung-fu challenge; strong, fast, methodical and finally a muay Thai scrap; wild, brutal, chaotic.

It's obvious this film was made by a martial artist; there is very little dialogue, the camera work showcases the fighter's movements (instead of obscuring them) and the fights have a purpose in advancing the story.

This is Tony Jaa's crowning achievement, thus far. He is such a unique force in the universe I only hope he can control his limitless power + avoid Bruce/Brandon Lee's fate.

One last note on casting, it's so refreshing to see child actors who actually look like the adult stars they're supposed to be portraying.

It was terrible.

I liked Ong Bak. Hated Tom Yam Goong. And Ong Bak 2 was so bad, both my girlfriend and I fell asleep while watching it...

Rotten Tomato.

sad news...

I am agree with English Bob,the movie was so badddddddd.I really wanted to get out before the end and it is a huge fan of ongbak who is talking here.And that movie dont even have an end for GOD sake.

Ong bak 2 is a prequel to ong bak 1.

I loved Ong Bak, Loved Tom Yam Kung, but this movie is his worst movie EVER...

I have no idea why you liked this movie. I never walked out of the cinema before, but when this movie finally ended, i was wondering why i waited for the end. The only reason i guess i stayed was out of respect of his previous movies...

Q1 - Why was it named Ong Bak 2? cause there is absolutely NOTHING from part 1 in it...

A1 - The producers must have realised it truly is a lame movie and decided to name it ong bak 2, just to get people to come to the cinema and watch it... It's what got my attention!

Q2 - Why are you so hilarious about it??? What part did you like? Just that they do a small documentary 'ish fight school in there? Go watch some discovery shows.. even the re-runs are more entertaining...

I met Tony Jaa, Love his work, totally respect him, has the best moves ever, but this movie is unworthy of the name Ong Bak......

Cant say I have seen the new Ong Bak, but Im already disappointed.

A good story is important in any movie.

Um.. ok, I guess we won't be going to see any movies together.

The TF movie nights are now canceled.

Agreed, absolutely horrible movie. Got my hopes up for nada.
