Tony Jaa stars. The Bodyguard: A professional bodyguard who failed to protect his employer is fired by the boss's son. Review: One of the best... - These movies were great. First off I was glad to watch a movie starring Petchtai Wongkamlao. He was great in The Protector movies, and in Ong-bak, and now to see him in the lead role, was awesome. Secondly the movie surprised me. I bought this thinking I was getting an action movie, but this was genius. I loved these movies, and have watched both numerous times. They have become a classic go-to movie on rainy days, and one that will have me laughing, and quoting it for days after. I highly HIGHLY recommend it. Review: Tony Jaa fans BEWARE - I, like many others, was dazzled by Jaa's amazing athletic gifts, especially in the first two OngBak films. "The next Bruce Lee, the next Jet Li, etc." He certainly looked like the Next Big Thing in martial arts films, and we can always use one of those, right? Well, if you're a Tony Jaa fan, then STAY AWAY from both of these films. They are not only AWFUL in themselves, but the brief scenes with TJ only serve to emphasize how lame, muddled, mindless and utterly BORING the rest of the films turn out to be. Sorry, but neither film qualifies as "watchable." And, by the way, how is it that some of the most intelligent and well-written films with gay and feminist themes have recently come from Thailand -- e.g., Beautiful Boxer -- while these two cinematic attrocities manage to pile on heaps of homophobic "humor" at every opportunity? The "filmmakers" appear to have been transplanted from another culture, far less sensitive and sexually sophisticated than Thailand. Perhaps the US Bible Belt? Hey, do yourself a favor, save the money.

Fantastic!
I absolutely loved these movies. I should warn everyone, though. Tony Jaa is NOT starring in either of these movies. He DOES, however, have a short cameo in each where he comes in, goes Muay Thai all over somebody's butt, and leaves. It was awesome. Also, the lead role is a fantastic actor and these movies are hysterical. Another warning: the subtitles are REALLY BAD. I thought it was really funny, because I love poorly subtitles foreign comedies. Some of my peers thought it took away from the movie though, so be forewarned.

The Funny Guard
It is rare that a sequel will out shines the first film, but the Bodyguard2 does that. Great action sceens and a lot of laughs.

To the directors and producers: Are you serious?!!!!! Really?!!!!!
This was terrible! Don't even bother! Tony Jaa makes a 10 second appearance so don't be fooled thinking he's in the entire movie. He's not!
