You're kidding, right.
The editting was terrible. The plot made no sense. It was disjointed and idiotic.
And then the karate moves. The SAME move a million times over. He has ONE MOVE. He locks up an arm and a leg and brakes it. Yes, one worried about the poor stunt men who were getting busted up, but after awhile it must get boring for anybody.
A dance movie has to show more than one step, no?
And the Story. We are to believe that the King of Thailand was in on a conspiracy to steal some old guy's elephant for somebody who would want to derogate to themselves a Royal Prerogative. it would ... it could never happen.
And then we are to believe that some elephant shit-shovelling kid could outfight people who fight for a living. Who taught him how to fight? His father lasted about 2 seconds. His father couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag, so how did junior learn to twist off arms and legs?
Now, who can be stupid enough to be able to suspend so much belief.
Oh, yeah.
YOU.
You want a good movie? Go see "The Illusionist"

I'll admit the plot was lame. in the first movie they stole his tribe's sacred head! Thins movie they stole his sacred elephant? what's next they steal his sacred carrot?
i was rather impressed with the action. i mean : EVERYONE clapped and cheered when it was over. And i'm pretty sure it was because they enjoyed it.The Best of my dream journal
