These days Muay Thai is the new, sexy martial art to know -- and the posterboy of the art is none other than Tony Jaa, one of the most ass-kicking martial artists I’ve ever seen. His step into the spotlight was a 2003 film called Ong Bak.

This movie gets a 10/10, if for no other reason than because it will surprise the crap out of you.  Nobody saw this movie coming.  The action is some of the best I’ve ever seen -- Tony Jaa doesnt use wires, and the choreography is fantastic.  The story is fairly straightforward, and pretty enjoyable even if it is occasionally corny.  If you are interested in Muay Thai, then this is THE movie you need to see.

Comment on this movie.
