Review of Bang Rajan (2000) by Vincent O — 30 Dec 2011
The greatest Thai epic ever made and a rival to 'Ong Bak', as the most thrilling entertainment in world cinema. I love this film and the only negative aspect is costly the C.G.I work looked a bit ropey (in the form of explosions etc).
Still when you think that just a trailer for a Hollywood blockbuster costs more, it's only a small gripe and the rest is the finest martial art, epic drama that I have ever seen. Like 'Braveheart' on speed.
Just the perfect film for me and the actors lived the life of primitive villages (for a whole month), just to get a feel for the way of life and to get to grips with heavy weapons they had to train with.
Superb!
