Awesome Movie

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

If you want a film that does exactly what it says on the tin then BATTLE ROYALE BANGKOK is exactly the film for you. It's a cheap Thai rip-off of the Japanese classic BATTLE ROYALE and it's just as dreadful as it sounds, as is the majority of Thai action cinema being made these days (with the exception of Tony Jaa/Panna Rittikrai cinema and the likes of BANG RAJAN).The film opens on a reasonably entertaining note with a disagreement turning into an all-out expansive brawl on the streets. After this, the miscreants involved are shipped off to a remote island by a paramilitary organisation, at which point they have to fight for their lives. What follows is faintly embarrassing mix of high melodrama, cheap production values, and lame action. This is the type of film that doesn't translate well to foreign audiences, featuring over the top emoting throughout and action that's completely devoid of excitement. I hated it.
