This film was funny and had great action I heard it did not do good in the box office in Thai land which is sad. I really like Nathan Jones he is a cool guy and is finally not type cast as a big bad guy but as a nice clumsy guy. Kraten (Nawarat Techaratanaprasert) was a really cute her role was cool and i thought she spoke english better than the gangsters in the movie and Dokya (Sasisa Jindamanee)is cool. She fights like a little Tony Jaa she is the real star of this film besides her sister. Don cheupong from Dynamite warrior/Born To fight remake has a cool Cameo apperance in the first half of the film he even shows off some of his moves. Even though this is more of a comedy than say toy Jaa's film or Dan cheupongs it is a fun movie I enjoyed it.If you liked this film then go see Ong Bak/Born To Fight/Tom Yoong Gun(The Protector here in the states)/Dynamit warrior/chocolate/body Guard 1&2
