After Ong-Bak and Tom Yum Goong with Tony Jaa, Prachya Pinkaew moves towards "Chocolate", this time with a remarkable female lead JeeJa Yanin.
Chocolate is about a bedridden mother (Ammara Siripong) and her autistic daughter (Yanin Vismitananda) with impeccable martial art skills. She goes on a rampage to collect the money from those who owe her mother (to cover her medical expenses).
First 30 minutes take the story and characters to develop and you will see how Zen learns to kick the ass i.e. by watching The Protector (2005) and Ong-bak (2003). You will be amazed by her ability to pick-up the moves by just observation and applying them. She grows into a warrior, who can defeat 50 fighters nonchalantly.
While Yanin did most of her own stunts and you will love the fight at the abattoir. The choreography is breathtaking and action is all over with a breathtaking pace.
It is highly recommended that you watch this to the credits and the scenes will leave you dazed, how these actors perform the stunts and risk their lives to meet the perfection? You will appreciate their meticulous work in every frame of the movie.
Highly recommended My vote 8/10
