Bangkok Dangerous

This is a remake of the Asian film by the same name. The Pang brothers are awesome. I love their Eye trilogy and while I didn't see the original of this film, I did enjoy The Messengers which was their first American film.

This film is about a hitman who goes to somewhere in Asia and falls for a girl, screws up his job blah blah blah. Nick Cage does a piss poor job, as his norm lately, and the movie as a whole feels like one of the most shallow experiences this year.

I really have nothing good to say of the film, and while it isn't the worst film this year, this fall or ever made it just doesn't need to exist as it does nothing but take up space.

It's a shame too that the Pang bros. just can't strike gold here in the states but really, they should stick to what they do best over there which is make good movies and not fall into the Hollywood trap.

Entertainment Value - 1/5

Movie - 1/5
