Review of Bangkok Dangerous (2008) by Dylan D — 19 Sep 2013

Bangkok Dangerous is a difficult film to judge. It's not Leon, for sure, but it is an enjoyable ride that plays better than it should and ends with a most unexpected final shot. The film is far better than its paltry box office take may lead one to believe, and it offers more meaning and depth upon closer examination than do other movies of this sort.

This is by no means a historical, or even all that memorable, film, but it does make for a rewarding 90+ minutes for those with an open mind willing to give it a chance.
