As with any foreign movie it's going to get a very limited run. But I think this is a must see for big screen. Next I am hoping Fling Swords of Dragon Gate gets a state side release as well.

This movie is absolutely fantastic, best action flick I have EVER seen and worth every penny of my admission - and thats not something I can say for many films these days. If you are waiting to watch this one in the comfort of your home... DON"T! This is one that deserves the full theater experience (if anything, JUST too hear the gasps of other audience members)!!!

*minor spoiler alert*

the entire audience broke out in spontaneous cheering at the end. this movie deserves to be seen in a theater full of people.

Maddie and I watched this movie on Thursday. So glad we got to see it in theaters. It reminded me a lot of the original Ong Bak.

It was quite funny, cause it was only us and two other people there during the screening. More than likely it was only because everybody else were there for the midnight screenings of Avengers.

I went into this movie with very high hopes, and I know everyone loves it and it has tons of hype but i was totally let down.
Some of the fighting was very well done but other times it was 5 min of kicking each other in a 5X5 room. The camera has so much wiggle to it I felt seasick at times. I went with my normal movie crew guys who like to talk about the movie in the parking lot for an hour post movie, but after the movie we all just shrugged our shoulders and went home. Don't get me wrong.. the movie worth seeing and has some great parts, but as a whole it just did not work for me.

I think the hype was greater than the film, but I did enjoy it.

The movie was had it's good moments. I'm not too much of an action movie junkie, but a couple of my friends are and they loved it.

Also, I just watched the trailer for the new Judge Dredd movie. Something seems a little all too familiar in it.
