Joe G 09/11/2020 You can tell this was written by a person with limited knowledge of the English language. The Thai characters spoke perfect English and sounded out of place. The acting and fight scenes were mediocre and some conversations between the actors made no sense? Here's an example; passenger "Don't worry I'm not going to kill you" driver "Are you going to kill me" passenger "Yes" ??? The last 30 minutes of the movie got worse and kept making less and less sense? It ruined any chance of salvaging this mess. This could have been a decent movie? I don't understand why the actors who are clearly Western raised didn't help to correct the dialogue? Pass on this one. See more 12/27/2018 I was expecting more fighting scenes from this film, but it did not have enough. I go as far to say that its actually terrible. Its not " One Bak " and its definitely not " The Raid " but it makes you wonder just how much can personality impact a movie. So for this being just a horrible movie, I give " Bangkok Revenge " an F. See more 01/19/2016 Très bon film de combat et fait par un français en plus. Il y a 2/3 scènes impressionnantes. See more 08/09/2014 The action was very good, well executed etc I give many applauses for it. The fighting scenes is mostly consuming the duration of movie than the actual story line. But what the hay, its a action movie. The biggest downfall of this movie is that 1. The language, the whole language barrier is just confusing. A child growing up and speaks fluent english, let alone in the British accent. Other actors in the movie spoke the other language flawlessly but when speaking english.... obviously not there strongest point. 2. The sex scene, totally unnecessary. The raid didn't need such extra to the film to be good. Instead of adding the scene, the crew could at least work on the script, story development, and dialogue. 3.The gang who captures Jon and tie him up with panties. Again, was it necessary? or a gag joke? I would go on about other points of the movie but its best to read other reviews then reading this. Or just watch the movie, and you would question....who, what, when, why? Why would they chase after a kid even tho he can't remember...oh wait! its all for vengeance. See more 06/29/2014 Lots of action, but no acting. See more 10/07/2013 Decent fighting scenes but plot of movie was silly. See more Read all reviews
