Fun Stuff

Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: When Angel pulls the gun on Chance, Chance tells her the safety is on. Angel states that the gun she is holding is a Walther P22, and that is has no safety. In reality a Walther P22 has an ambidextrous safety which can be engaged/disengaged from either side of the gun. more

Not quite Ong Bak, 26 March 2009
Author: krystal-43 from South Africa

I would just like to point out that the 5th Commandment on the Holy Bible is actually honor thy Father and Mother, not "Do not kill" as the theme song for the movie goes. So the title already sets the mood for the rest of the picture - a bit of a joke. I would like to know who came up with the title as they made a serious booboo? I went to the DVD store to pick out a fighting movie that we could all say "how cool was that?" to, but unfortunately i picked this movie. the cover seemed good but the explanation was slightly off, going into life theories and morals etc - not really describing what is to come. I was seriously disappointed in the acting abilities of the 3 main characters, especially Angel. They might as well have held the script up and read it straight with no emotion, because even no emotion is better than fake emotion. The one single part in Ong Bak where the guy fly kicks the other fighter and says the most cheesiest and random line ever "the mustang has galloped on your face" was still better than the entire 5th/6th Commandment Movie.
