    just for all you MA heads out there if you guys love MA as much as i do then check out Tony Jaa's Ong Bak, Ahh old news i hear you say, well then check out Ong Bak 2 AKA "Gum Yum Toong" (honor of the beast), Crazy , he doesnt really beat the guys up, he just breaks them. Ong Bak one style of Muay thai, Gum yum Toong, Muay thai Choichosoi, base on the movement of elephants yes elephants, ive never seen someone breaks the limbs of 30 guys before, and i mean 30 in one scene, crazy stuff, plus he has a fight against a real life Capoeira master, thats good enough in itself.

    buy it! Trust me, it Rocks the house !

    It's not ong bak 2. I thought the breaking in Tom yum goong was a bit repetitive.. It was OK, but ong bak was way better. I loved the muay thai in it.. A bit out there, but visually nice.. Two threads on this today btw.

    yes is true , was repetitive but i think this is the theme he was going for, really shear brutality other than the spectacular, i didnt even realise there are 3 forms of Muay Thai out there.

    A good movie, though, both have there good points.

    TONY JAA IS A LEGEND!! ong bak is one of the greatest martial arts movies ever! And definitly one of the best in the last few years!

    The latest Tony Jaa movie I saw a pirate of and the fight scenes are amazing!! The story was the biggest load of b****x ever though! :) but the fights more than make up for it!

    my two cents
