man, what a great kung fu (muay thai) flick. the action was well paced and awesome. the lack of special effects, wires, and doing their own stunts really made this movie work. i highly recommend it.

I know elbows are vicious in fights, but I dunno, the few fight scenes I saw from it made me laugh. I actually thought of old wrestling stuff where people would jump around doing flying elbows or something. Also I think there was a part where some guy threw like literally 30 chairs/tables/clocks/plates at the guy and he kept "blocking" them with his leg... right.

Ong-Bak go some pretty nice fight scenes. Normally im not into fighting movies, but that one was nice, actually ordered it on DVD(and pretty sure my local post office managed to throw it away, going down to complain tomorrow).
Everyone i showed it to have been impressed, those elbows are pretty nasty.

I freaking loved it. The fight scenes were very well done, and easy to watch. There were several times where I was just in awe at what that guy had just done.
