= Brief plot
First of all, the main line of the movie is summed up in one sentence: the son Ah Jin lives in harmony and happiness with his elderly father and the elephant. Later, their elephant fraternity and the baby elephant were arrested, Ah Jin went to Sydney to save his own Elephant story.
= Talking about the background
Let's talk about some background of this play: The director of this play: Prakia Pinkyao, a very good martial arts (May Thai) director, representative works: "Boxing Fighter" "Women Boxing Fighter"; maybe also Because of the cooperation of Quanba, the male protagonist of this Tom Yum Kung also chose Tony Jia, and because of the director's relationship, it was established that the martial arts of this play will not be bad at all.
Then let's talk about Tony Jia, a famous Thai star, everyone should be familiar with it. After all, this year (2015) the two films he collaborated with, "Speed ​​​​and Passion 7" and "Slay the Wolf 2" are still very good films. And this "Tom Yum Kung" is also an important step for Tony Jia to go international.
Name: Tom Yum Goong, it is actually Tao soup, and it is a super famous soup in Thailand/world, but the main ingredient is shrimp, not cherish wild animals.
Others: 1) This film can be said to be a very successful (hot) Thai film, because the international distribution rights have been bought out before the film started, which is unprecedented in the Thai film industry.
2) Thaksin attended the premiere 3) And the first time an elephant walked across the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
= Kaichao:
Actually, this film is from Southeast Asia, and I also guessed that it will definitely hack China, mainly because I didn’t expect that the villain was actually Teacher Jin Xing! First of all, this is a martial arts movie*3! Therefore, there are indeed some deficiencies in the plot, the simplicity and the chaotic story line. At the beginning, the male protagonist's father was a dialogue between the guards of the Thai king and the royal front of FLAG. The male protagonist gave me the feeling that Jackie Chan + Wang Baoqiang used force to solve the problem. In order to fight an elephant from Thailand to Sydney, he did a heroic deed incidentally and took the villain.
Going back to the source, this is a martial arts film, and it is still very good in terms of fighting scenes. This is also the most outstanding part of this show. In the middle of the period, there are 4 minutes of uncut martial arts scenes, and there is no double in the whole process. This is worth any film. Learning martial arts. And some people think the style of this action movie is a bit Jackie Chan, but I think there are many differences. And Tony has obvious Muay Thai routines, heavy legs, using heavy blows, etc., a tough and tough style.
=Tucao
, let’s talk about the character first:
Male protagonist: I love the elephant with a heart, and it’s like a thousand miles away. A super-strong martial arts, one to ten. (At first, I thought it was a supporting role in Stephen Chow's movie)
Foreign thugs: typical European and American big men, super weird (can throw a baby elephant flying).
Foreign gangster youth: a typical group of hip-hop youths who ordered to come, there are many people, and they all like to play on wheels (motorcycle, pulley or skateboard parkour), when they come, they always have to go over a big truck to show that they are very good (old time port). film loves that too).
The setting of the big villain: the common problem of action movies (no use of guns, there is a chance not to go or the villain dies, etc.), and then a gangster! Chinese gangsters! Sitting in Sydney selling rare animals to cook, a bunch of thugs secretly traded... Is this really a villain empire enterprise? Moreover, the restaurant at the back door of Xiliang Palace (restaurant) is bigger than the one at the front door, it's a secret! And after the media is informed, a press conference can be held.

= Shots
I like a few shots in this drama, and all of them are in the back part
1) The stairs of the restaurant beat people, the uncut shots (this will not go into details, the most brilliant part)
2) The male protagonist sees the bones of fraternity The scene of the camera highlights the strong feelings of the male protagonist and the subject.
2.5) When the male protagonist walked to the top, he saw the diners.
3) The male protagonist walked with his waist bent at the end
(Supplement: I forgot to mention the fight against three foreigners. I’ll add it here, that part is also great, especially the black guy’s hip-hop flow (just kidding), this fight is also very good, and you can see the details of Tony Jia I 'm a little tired from the back)
=
At ​​the beginning of the color matching, the main color of the scene where the male protagonist was playing with the elephant when he was a child was green and the edges were blurred. The general color of the scene) The color of the
town is cooler, which is different from the general warm color, and it also highlights the darkness between the city and the official activities.
The color of the restaurant, the main color is red (the main color is the reflection of lanterns and wall pillars), maybe you want to highlight the Chinese style. (Few restaurants in China are so beautiful, right).


= costumes (props, etc.)
don't want to complain too much. Briefly talk about the female villains: the fan's bathrobe, the fan's cheongsam, the fan's tights + leather whip, the fan's eye makeup. The male protagonist has a hot red short scarf and Johnny's villain's front and rear hairstyles. The costumes of the Thai police before and after they were framed (...the previous period was all police uniforms). The Tang suit for diners.

===Easter egg When
entering the airport, the passport was dropped, and the two of them were posing to start, wait, isn't this Jackie Chan?
When arguing with hip-hop youths, Tony kicked the street lights ("Raptor Crossing the River"), the
Chinese boss said the female villain "Look at how you are neither male nor female!
At the beginning, the Chinese boss said that the female villain "look at your villain" The appearance of neither male nor female"! Teacher Jin Xing is suffering and can't tell.
In the Songkran Festival picture in the film, Tony Jia's father appears; a stand-in for Jackie Chan appears in the camera at the airport; Thai singer Sek Loso also Appears in the foreground of a shot as he is drinking his own brand of energy drink.
