The nation is the world's

First-rate kung fu and sound effects, second-rate screenwriter, third-rate editing, this is my evaluation of this film. The editing is the same as "Boxer", fragmented and out of tune. If it weren't for DVDRIP, I would think it was a castrated version introduced in China. Personally, I think it might be because the fighting part is too long, so I cut a lot of literary dramas. In terms of screenwriting, the entry point is good. The Buddhist complex of "Boxing Fighter" and the elephant complex of "Tom Yum Kung", coupled with the performance methods of Muay Thai, made us know Thailand, a seemingly mysterious country. The nationality is the world, and people understand it more thoroughly than we understand, and use two movies to get the country's name card out. Of course, as a Kung Fu movie, if Kung Fu is top-notch, the plot can be watched no matter how bad it is. The action design of this film has improved a lot from "Boxing Fighter", and the three fights that impressed me the most.
The first recommendation is of course the scene at Dongyang Palace. From the first floor to the N floor, it turned out to be a long shot that lasted for N minutes! The imagination of the action design is very bold! During the period, the actor has to make a variety of different actions to deal with different opponents, and use various terrains and various props to fight, while the dragon suit who plays the role of the dragon has to fall in time. I really sweated for them. It would be terrible if NG came back, but unfortunately I didn't see the shooting highlights. Combining multiple martial arts designs together, but also with speed and strength, the actor's physical strength is commendable. It seems that Bruce Lee’s previous films were shot with this kind of lens, but that was because of the limitations of shooting techniques and shooting costs at that time. And the fight between Yen Zidan and Wu Jing in "Slaying the Wolf" is just two masters of routines comparing each other, not as difficult as this film. Such a deliberate shot undoubtedly adds to the power of Muay Thai.
Then came the three-game streak of the church. Three different opponents, three different styles, a bit like a video game. However, the male protagonist passed the level easily with the unchanging Muay Thai. He didn't see any tricks. This may be the only place where he is inferior to Jet Li. After all, Li has more routines and fancy.
The final decisive battle, I call it "Hundred People Discount". The reason why I am interested in the sound effects of this film is that this scene has a lot of extra points. I heard the sound of broken bones. It is a kind of almost BT style of play. There is a cruel beauty, but it is not as good as "Kill Bill". "The bloody battle inside. Violent but not bloody is also one of the characteristics of these two Muay Thai movies. The subsequent battle of the Four Forces, just like Jet Li's Western boxing in "Huo Yuan Jia", was purely promoting Muay Thai, and I didn't believe that the fighting power of elephant bones would increase exponentially.
I don't know it, but I was taken aback at a glance. Someone used to tell me how good "Boxing Ba" looks good, but I sneered at it. Today I saw "Boxing Ba" and "Tom Yum Kung" and I believed that there are people outside the world, and there are heaven outside the world. Muay Thai went out, but Chinese Kung Fu was going downhill, sadly.
