Dynamite Warrior
Don’t eff with Dan Chupong. He’d beat you up and make it look cool.
Ong-Bak is the standard in which all Thai kung fu/action movies must be compared to. Ok, their may not be THAT many but I can tell you that Dynamite Warrior would be near the top. This movie was damn entertaining! And in a movie with such amazing fight sequences you can be sure that the ‘Special Features’ is going to have a pretty sweet section on the stunts. Apparently there aren’t too many stunt men in Thailand. If you want to act, you have to jump through fire. ACTION!
DVD Review: Dynamite Warrior
The biggest fear in a movie like this is that the plot is going to be about as engaging and believable as Paris Hilton telling you about the rigors of ‘doing time’. But somehow Dynamite Warrior holds it together (albeit by the shoe strings) and let’s you enjoy the action to it’s full extent without being so utterly frustrated with the plot that you want to shoot yourself.
And the action is definitely there to be enjoyed! Chupong rides, nay, surfs a frikkin rocket for God’s sake! Throw in some midgets and some menstrual blood from a virgin and you have yourself a damn entertaining afternoon, I’m telling you!
