Ong bak 1 & 2 was great, 3 was worse than hell. Yes, I've been to hell and back, and Hell was much better. Everything about this movie is absurd. I understand the story needed to progress and close, but Ong Bak 3 completely threw out the formula that made 1 & 2 work. I wanted to see Jaa kick some serious ass, not appear on "So you think you can dance." The costumes wreak (especially the assassins with silly baskets on their head). The dialogs are childish. The acting is extremely laughable. And the special effects overly unnecessary. I know Jaa didn't have much control over this film and I have faith his future films will be better, but for Ong Bak 3 as a whole, I say skip if you can. If you can't, close your eyes. And if you can't close your eyes, then blankly stare at the screen and imagine something else better. Imagine walking your dog on a Sunday morning may be more exciting, or taking grandma grocery shopping.
