Description of Bangkok Dangerous [Blu-ray]:
An adrenaline-charged action thriller, Lionsgate's Bangkok Dangerous stars Nicolas Cage (Leaving Las Vegas, National Treasure) as "Joe," an anonymous assassin takes an unexpected turn when he travels to Thailand to complete a series of contract killings. Joe (Nicolas Cage), a remorseless hitman, is in Bangkok to execute four enemies of a ruthless crime boss named Surat. He hires Kong (Shahkrit Yamnarm), a street punk and pickpocket, to run errands for him with the intention of covering his tracks by killing him at the end of the assignment. Strangely, Joe, the ultimate lone wolf, finds himself mentoring the young man instead whilst simultaneously being drawn into a tentative romance with a local shop girl. As he falls further under the sway of Bangkok’s intoxicating beauty, Joe begins to question his isolated existence and let down his guard …just as Surat decides it’s time to clean house. Directors The Pang Brothers (The Eye) paint an explosive picture of the Bangkok underworld, illuminated with neon and saturated in violence. From a screenplay by Jason Richman, Bangkok Dangerous is based on the Pang Brothers’ wildly popular Hong Kong action film of the same name. Starring alongside Cage are Shahkrit Yamnarm (Belly of the Beast), Charlie Young (Seven Swords), Panward Hemmanee and Dom Hetrakul (Sniper 3). The film is produced by Jason Shuman, William Sherak, Nicolas Cage and Norm Golightly. Andrew Pfeffer, Derek Dauchy, Denis O’Sullivan and Ben Waisbren serve as the executive producers.

Bangkok Dangerous [Blu-ray] Reviews:
Bangkok Monotonous
2009-12-27 - Banal and pedestrian hit man story. Nic Cage is completely unbelievable as a super assassin who is tasked to carry out four kills in Bangkok. Along the way, he befriends a young Thai, and teaches him the secrets of his dark art (for example, "squeeze the trigger, don't pull it", he says, in one scene, duh... or "use reflective surfaces to look behind you", duh...). He also hooks up with a Thai girl (who, predictably, is mute) and eats really spicy food. If you like thrills, suspense and action, then AVOID this movie. If you want to fall asleep, then watch this.

Nic's deadliest weapon is his awful hair, which completely fails to conceal his repetitive, painful acting. His star really has fallen very far, and rubbish like Bangkok Dangerous will not revive his career.

Bangkok Dangerous
2009-12-26 - Bangkok Dangerous was an awesome action movie. It had many different great action sequences. This is a asian style movie with a asian style ending.

wast of time
2009-12-08 - should have taken a nap instead. I think this is probably Nicolas Cage worst moves, it seamed like it he really didn't care about his role. The story and ending was pretty poor, I just could not believe it, it didn't make any sense.

Nice Travelogue of Bangkok
2009-11-25 - At the beginning of the movie, I was disappointed to hear Nick cage's character start narrating the film and spoon feeding the plot to the audience. Follow that up with a focus on the venue (Bangkok) rather than the characters, and what could have been a great action movie turned rather mediocre and failed to emotionally invest the audience. Even the finale doesn't really leave an emotional impression - it was just kind of an oh well moment with a quick transition to the Blu-Ray extra features. Speaking of the extra features, they included an alternate ending that was typical Hollywood happy ending - glad to see they didn't use it.

Campy Violent Fun!
2009-09-29 - I love Nicholas Cage in just about anything, and this was no exception. Yes, it was an extremely "campy", predictable, violent and definitely Grade B film, but it was so much fun! The way it was filmed was delectable, filled with the raw sights, sounds and colors of Bangkok-you could almost taste and smell the foods in the market, feel the seedy, oily, hot and humid backstreets, and it's mixed-class people; it was wonderful. The story line was typical: assasin meets girl, changes his ways, loses girl because he had to make a moral choice, then goes out in a blaze of glory. But this film has a twist: the love interest was a (delightful) normal woman, AND she was deaf! This made the film much more "realistic"(if you will), using a normal woman rather than the typical woman often portrayed as the heroine, read: stick-thin, extraordinarily beautiful, with a killer wardrobe-even if she is ridiculously poor. If you enjoyed the cult favorite film "Replacement Killers" (Mira Sorvino and Chow Yun Fat-in one of his first US films), you will also enjoy this film.
