Tony Jaa makes a long awaited return as The Battle Warrior. Tony is the protector of an artifact that mercenaries are seeking to get at any cost. Joining Tony is his mentor Panna Rittikrai and the team that brought us ‘Ong Bak,’ ‘The Protector,’ ‘Born to Fight’ and ‘Dynamite Warrior.’ The action segments were so enormous that a total of three stunt teams were called in to handle it all! ‘Battle Warrior’ gives Tony ample opportunity to show off his phenomenal skills which the Seattle Post-Intelligencer calls `...the best human special effect since Jet Li...' - and TIME magazine simply refers to Jaa as `The Next Action Hero'.

Summary: It's so bad it's funny...
Comment: Oh, this film is terrible and is nothing like the quality of "Ong Bak". A minimal plot about the rescue of a archiologist/treasure hunter from a large group of drug-smugglers, pitiful dialog, simple photography, and weak action scenes make this film worthy of the trashcan. Much of the climactic battle at the end is done with gunfire and small explosions (with the exception of the guard towers - they explode into fireballs) instead of Thai martial arts. I did have a chuckle at the cringe-worthy conversations between the characters but otherwise this is not worth wasting either time or money on.

Summary: ERROR--ERROR--ERROR
Comment: I purchased this DVD on impulse, having enjoed two other Tony Jaa action flicks. WHAT AN ERROR!
This DVD is so bad, if I could rate it lower than one star, I would. I could not stomach this travesty beyond 20 minutes.
The dubbing is HORRIBLE. The camera work is HORRIBLE. The story line is MORONIC and I have no hope for any ACTION in this grainy, colorless, DVD.
Tony Jaa is a minor character here...where as ONG-BAK actually STARS jaa, and IS a very good movie.

Summary: Nah....
Comment: If you saw Ong Bak or the Protector, don't be assuming your going to see that stuff here. I still haven't been able to watch more than 20 min because even if you listen to the Thai audio track, the mouths are out of sync.

Summary: What a Waste
Comment: This is the worst movie I had ever watched in my entire life. The plot was so poor as well as the actions. The filmed was poorly made and I believe back in 1996, there were quality movies have been made but this does not qualify a bit to be one. Where is Tony by the way ! Zombies in the jungle, tribemen and rebel-like soldiers,,,wow what a waste. I can say the budget was about 10-25K US$ or maybe less. Where can you find a golden stone treasure that even the King of Jordan and Prince of Saudi would like to buy it for 1B US$ which only lies beside the riverbank where the rebels live. One more, an almost hundred rebel soldier attacked by 2-3 good guys and yet the explosion is everwhere as if they were attacked by vietcongs..
Those who are fan of Tony Jaa, never ever try renting, buying or even watching this movie. The cover was deceptively made to fool the consumers. Too dark, too slow, extremely poor movie. ZERO rating for me.

Summary: Absolutely Hysterical
Comment: This movie is a piece of garbage. First of all it is grossly mis-advertised. The plot description on the back of the DVD cover makes it sounds as if Tony Jaa is the hero of the movie protecting an artifact from bad guys, when in fact the exact opposite is true. Tony Jaa is a bad guy who has about 7 minutes of screen time. As for the plot, it makes less than no sense, the dubbing is horrific (I noticed the voices for one character changing through out the movie), at one point the dubbing just stops for a few minutes. There are zombies, black goblins, a big German guy named Smith, and for those who appreciate the art of bad cinema, this is a gem. I admit your brain needs to be wired a certain way to find this kind of thing funny, but if it is, you'll be laughing for days.
