Bangkok Dangerous review

Rated :

The first glimpse at the title may give you the big idea. This would be a great action movie. But I'm afraid to tell you, it isn't. I always was a big fan of Nicolas Cage. His acts were really inspiring on both National Treasure and The Rock that gives a big impact on my childhood. However, this movie is far apart from that and I'm not flattering.

The act brought forward by Nicolas Cage as an assassin does not carried well by the actor. His previous acts are so strong, thus overshadowing his current act. Maybe it just me, but I can see better results if the character are player by Cruise, Matt Damon or Jason Statham.

Sorry for Bangkok Dangerous fan, but the script are not well written too, none of them are 'catchy', literally. The actions are also dull comparing all the movies played on the big screen this year. The romance in between make it even worse. If the only strong actor does not stand out, will the others?

Quick synopsis on Bangkok Dangerous without bloopers
Joe (Nicolas Cage), an assassin who's going to end up his killing streak on his final mission held in Bangkok, Thailand. In order to accomplish the mission, he needs someone disposable at the end of if. Finding himself one, is really easy, but finding him a romance is dumb. So, the execution starts.

Watching this is not recommended but cursing afterward is highly endorsed by me. You can watch it here:
