Movie Reviews of Battle WarriorMovie Review: A long time coming.... Summary: 5 Stars
It's been too long since we've seen a new Tony Jaa film!
This is an older one but it's a good one.
The action is not on the Ong Bak tip(but then what is????)but you get plenty of it.
Plot involves mercenaries going after a stone tablet in the Golden Triangle and Tony Jaa plays the bodyguard of the warlord there.
He gets his own showcase to strut his stuff.
There's all kinds of action including guns and explosions,etc. so it's not a boring film at all.
There are some familiar faces in the crowd from Tonys more recent films including his main man Panna who has an outstanding guest appearance.
My favorite are these `black goblins' as they are called!
The dubbing is funky and its also in original Thai with subtitles.
The bonus disc is loaded with all kinds of new Jaa materials including interviews and demos,etc.
There's also interviews with soem of the stars of the film and the production company is featured with a new star and film called Brave.
Nothing for Jaa to lose sleep over mind you but its very interesting to see how things evolve.
One of the leads is actually a director now and is connected to the production company(the son of the owner??).
This is from the same company that made Spirited Killer and Born to Fight(original)and a thousand Panna films it seems.
Definitely worth having in the collection while we wait for Tonys next blockbuster.
Summary of Battle WarriorTony Jaa makes a long awaited return as The Battle Warrior. Tony is the protector of an artifact that mercenaries are seeking to get at any cost. Joining Tony is his mentor Panna Rittikrai and the team that brought us ?Ong Bak,? ?The Protector,? ?Born to Fight? and ?Dynamite Warrior.? The action segments were so enormous that a total of three stunt teams were called in to handle it all! ?Battle Warrior? gives Tony ample opportunity to show off his phenomenal skills which the Seattle Post-Intelligencer calls `...the best human special effect since Jet Li...' - and TIME magazine simply refers to Jaa as `The Next Action Hero'.
