<p><strong>“Tony Jaa and his team have once again raised the bar for fight choreography&hellip; Outstanding.” - <em>Martial Development </em></strong></p>

<p><strong><em></em></strong><em></em> As the audience at MIFF's Closing Night screening of <em>Ong Bak: Muay Thai Warrior </em>in 2004 can attest, Tony Jaa's no-CGI, wire-free stylings left jaws hanging slack. For <em>Ong Bak 2</em>, Jaa takes up directorial duties, introducing copious weapon-play to the martial arts mix, and cementing his status as an action superstar. <em></em></p>

<p><em>Ong Bak 2</em> jumps back half a millennium to 15th century Thailand where Tien, the son of a military commander, seeks to avenge his parents' murder. Adopted by a team of jungle bandits, he's taught martial arts skills and groomed as their champion, all the while biding his time for his chance at revenge.</p>
