Excellent adaptation.

Absolutely Fantastic

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Another B movie with Cage. Colored hair and made up. What happened with the mociestar Cage? Man up : act your age!

Most of the movie wasn't terrible, but the end was terrible. It made no sense at all. It literally went from me liking it overall to really wishing I turned it off before the last 5 minutes.

The hit man Joe (Nicolas Cage) is a professional killer with a peculiar code of honor and modus-operandi. He travels to Bangkok to kill four persons and he hires the smalltime hoodlum Kong (Shahkrit Yamnarm) to help him in his job. When he meets the deaf and dumb Fon (Charlie Young) in a pharmacy, he falls in love with her and breaks his code. Further, he teaches Kong how to become a hit man. But when Kong is abducted by Surat (Nirattisai Kaljaruek), who had hired Joe for the assignment in Bangkok, he is forced to betray Joe. But the hit man decides to rescue Kong in his last job."Bangkok Dangerous" is an action movie by Oxide Pang Chun and Danny Pang with the nihilist story of a professional killer. I bought this DVD a couple of years ago and only yesterday I decided to watch it.The cinematography and the camera work in the chaotic and exotic Bangkok is a chance for those like me that have not had the chance to visit Thailand yet to see the beauties of this city. Charlie Young is perfect in the role of a sweet woman capable to bring love to the heart of a cold blood killer. However, the conclusion is disappointing and inconsistent with the behavior of Joe. Nevertheless I recommend this movie to viewers that wish to see an average story in an environment unusual for Westerns. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "Perigo em Bangkok" ("Danger in Bangkok")

'Bangkok Dangerous' is Time-Pass! A fairly engaging crime-thriller, that packs in some superb moments & a winning performance by its protagonist, Academy-Award-Winner Nicolas Cage.'Bangkok Dangerous' Synopsis: A hit-man who's in Bangkok to pull off a series of jobs violates his personal code when he falls for a local woman and bonds with his errand boy.'Bangkok Dangerous' has some superb moments, that deserve a mention. The Love-Story, in particular, stands out, while the Action-Sequences are brutal & unforgiving. However, its biggest flaw lies in its culmination, which simply doesn't work! The Pang Brothers Screenplay works, but the culmination is very underwhelming. Their Direction, on the other-hand, is stylish. Cinematography is well-done. Editing & Art Design, are fair.Performance-Wise: As mentioned, Nic Cage delivers a winning performance. He plays the no non-sense Hit-Man to the hilt. Shahkrit Yamnarm is relegated to backseat, while Charlie Yeung does a fine job. Panward Hemmanee is earnest.On the whole, 'Bangkok Dangerous' is a good watch.
