"Bangkok Dangerous"
« on: 7 Jan 2009, 11:19 pm »
I watched "Bangkok Dangerous" starring Nicolas Cage last night.  The story is about a hitman hired to do his "last job" in Bangkok, Thailand.  The scenary of Bangkok was excellent as was the action in the movie.  Storyline was crap!  I watched the entire movie as did my wife so that alone is worth a minimum of 2 stars out of 5.

The trailer looked intensely stupid  :duh:

I won't be paying money to watch it, but a DVD rental of the 1999 "Bangkok Dangerous" featuring a mute, deaf assassin is going to be the way to go.

Yes, the Thai original is far superior.

Nick Cage is one of the very best comedic actors. Unfortunately, he discovered that there is a LOT more $ in action flicks, no matter how mindless they are.  Hopefully, he may go back to what he does best- acting.

Last movie I saw that I liked him in was "Bringing Out the Dead".  Before that, "Raising Arizona".
