Ong-Bak: Muay Thai Warrior
Ong-Bak: Muay Thai Warrior (องค์บาก) (2003) is an action film from Thailand in the mold of "old school" Jackie Chan-styled kung-fu flicks starring Tony Jaa. Featuring amazing chase sequences and some bouts of intense, Bruce Lee-like violence, Ong-Bak was made entirely using "analogue" (ie. human) power for the stunts and effects, no CGI and no wires.
Thai language: องค์บาก
Plot synopsis
In a peaceful village of northern Thailand, there was an ancient temple "Ong-Bak" with a great Buddha sculpture. One day, a criminal stole the sculpture's head. Ting, a young village boy played by Tony Jaa (Phanom Yeerum), was sent to Bangkok to look for the holy head of Buddha.
