Rijndri Load of rubbish!!

Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

costmik watched it only because of buakaw banchamek . i really loved it . plain and nice. music i think transferred me to that period and made me feel as if i was in ayothaia back then . buakaw is my most favourite muai thai fighter of all. the plot is simple . the social messages throughout the movie . perfect movie about the morals of fighters, what a true fighter respects and how he confronts the death issue . would definitely recommend the movie for a relaxing 1 hour and 40 minutes time. the fight scenes could have been better but thats minor compared to the total value of the film. which i think is high . hope you enjoy it the same as i did .

GwydionMW A thin plot strings together a series of martial-arts displays.The boxing looks realistic, I assume this is real Thai Boxing as it actually occurs. But the sword-fighting is improbably one-sides.A brief depiction of a border war is ridiculous.The highly interesting politics of the time is entirely ignored. Both the internal conflicts and the role of the Dutch are wholly ignored. It was a kingdom that often had civil wars and which was finally destroyed by the Burmese.The Japanese settlement was also interesting, including both Christian rebels and some of the losers from the wars which established the Tokugawa shoguns. All ignored.The real life of Yamada Nagamasa would make an excellent film, but this is not it.

Chuckie Love This movie was one very good "Ass Kicking" Roller Coast ride of Martial Arts. The Music, Choreography, Historic Period, and Costumes were all 100% Japanese and Thai. I especially enjoyed that awesome Japanese Jazz song with the very large drums that played near the beginning of the movie, but wait! The Thai fighters were serious about their work and exceptional athletes that could kick your butt from the most amazing angles. I'm looking forward to seeing more movies like this one.As a Kung Fu fan I was totally caught off guard by this movie because I had no idea that "Thai Fighting" was so amazing and artistic.The acting was very good for a martial arts movie and wasn't overshadowed by the "Bad Ass Martial Arts moves". Thai Martial Arts communicates a rather poetic means of kicking someone's butt and I really dig it. I believe I'm hooked and will go on a Thai Martial Arts Binge for the next couple of years. Meanwhile my girly wife also enjoyed the movie and appreciated the very artistic opening credits as well as the cinematic visuals that occurred throughout the whole movie.Thanks for an "Outstanding Movie" and keeping hope alive for good martial arts flicks!P.S. I told my wife that I wanted a sweet little girl like the one in the movie.

kosmasp Highway to heaven (or hell for all I know) that is. A very OTT movie, that does not involve much acting, but does rely on a historic event (though you won't be alone if that "fact" brings up a chuckle or two, especially during the movie). The fighting is pretty good, the (obvious) CGI not that much.Language switches between Japanese and Thai, while the story goes places you will expect it to go (no surprises there). There are of course better movies out there, but if you are a fan of "eastern" movies you can risk a look at this. Especially if you don't mind the (CGI) blood that'll spill all over your screen!
