HightowerNL's rating
I actually liked this movie very much, even though there are lots of things to be disliked. The first time I saw it, I thought that it was jaw-dropping. Then after that I researched some of the claims and unfortunately it seems that some of the things presented as truth are not true at all. And yes, I'm also very cautious with people who claim that they are a medium and there is one medium in this film...
But next to that there are a lot of interesting things said in this film by some very intelligent people. So my advise is to not take everything too seriously and to draw your own conclusions about the things said in this film. Don't let the false claims and the medium distract you from the interesting stuff this movie has to offer.

A high rating and lots of positive reviews... what a joke. There are a few good fighting scenes in the movie, but just watch a DVD with K1 fights and you'll have a better night.
The movie is a Hollywood-wannabe. Most action sequences are way over the top and most situations are too obviously setup to let the main character show off his jumping and fighting skills.
I don't mind action that's just a little bit over the top, but why would you jump over and through things when being chased when you can just run past them? There is no doubt the main character is great at Muay Thai but the whole movie seems centered around this in a very forceful and therefore annoying way.
The only reason I watched the whole movie is because I like Thailand, Thai people and the Thai language, but if this is a top production for them they have a long way to go when it comes to film-making.
