Review of Bangkok Dangerous (2008) by Xou X — 04 Jul 2009

A dangerous film to see if you hate reality and Nicholas Cage. Nicholas Cage plays as a hitman who is hired by a thai crime lord who offers him contract kills in which he denies one of them which triggers a hunt for him.

The stab in the back effect and trust no one is a must have instinct as you cant trust the trialer and you get stabbed in the back after watching this movie. Although the story is good, the bad execution and horrible acting make this a forgettable experience.

You dont love any of the characters and they potray Thailand in such a horrible that you no longer want to go there. The action scenes are rather fast and redundant. Nicholas who was one of my favorites has become such a mess lately.

His hair doesnt change and his acting abilities are now in question. The pang brothers did a much better job in thier previous installments that this one should be uncredited of thier name. Bangkok is a beautiful city however this films says differently.

The only dangerous thing is that you dont walk in Thailand by yourself, dont act like a tourist, and arm yourself with a gun so you dont end up dead. I rather watch "Shoot em Up" then this state of the art crap.
