Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,

Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Tweekums After the events of the previous 'Ong Bak' film Tien has been captured by the evil Lord Rajasena. Rajasena orders his brutal execution; he is savagely beaten but before he is actually killed an order arrives from the king demanding Tien's release. He is taken back to his village where he gradually recovers from his injuries, which are both mental and physical. Meanwhile Rajasena, who has been cursed and appears to be going insane seeks the help of Bhuti Sangkha to lift the curse… instead Bhuti takes Rajasena's head and takes his place as local ruler… only he is more evil. Eventually when Tien has recovered he faces Bhuti.This, the conclusion to the 'Ong Bak' trilogy, gets off to a pretty good start as we see Tien getting beaten; impressively fighting back then getting beaten again. The problem is after this things are both messy and rather slow. The scenes showing Tien's recovery take far too long, especially given that the film is quite short, and the plot involving Bhuti is somewhat confused… it would have been better if the conclusion was a fight between Tien and Rajasena. When we aren't watching Tien recover there are some decent fight scenes; one even provides so good laughs when a comic relief character gets involved. There is certainly far too much mysticism; this is especially true of the finale where it appears that that Tien rewinds time after the woman he loves is killed and he gets a spear in the chest while the Bhuti talks in a voice that makes him sound like the Goa'uld in 'Star Gate SG1'. Overall this was a bit disappointing after the two previous films, which I really enjoyed… perhaps it would have been better had I watched it closer to watching part two.These comments are based on watching the film in Thai with English subtitles.

neildyhouse Can anyone tell me what is actually going on in this film?? Firstly, and this is key, the fight sequences are top notch and I come to expect nothing less from Tony Jaa. Having seen the prequels to this film (Ong Bak in particular is fantastic) and Warrior King this doesn't quite live up to first Ong Bak but it has a good go. There is no question that Jaa's physical prowess is phenomenal, a serious Jackie Chan if you will. Jaa's directorial style in places is snappy with some interesting tricks. Lots of long tracking shots in the fights really help to prove that there are no Wires, CGI and certainly no stunt men. Secondly, and this is the problem, the film is a classic case of style over content. The storyline has more holes than a string vest and what bits you can understand are silly, out of context and flat out odd. I have watched this twice and I feel no more clued up. Can anyone explain the man with the wicker basket on his head?To sum up - this is one of those films that you will want to fast forward until there is a fight which means it will take you about 20 minutes in total to watch this film. Great fighting but not much else. If you want to watch a fantastic martial arts film in the last 5 years then when you have skipped to the fights in this, go out and get yourself RAID and RAID 2: Berandal, then you will have to opportunity to watch two modern classics of the martial arts era!!

julesdil Ong bak 3 has a story which suits me its not stupid the directing is bad and the film is rushed in many ways this also lacks action. Thre is one scene where assassins invade the thIs village and that scene could have been good as the music is excellent its about the thai culture and when there is the action i wished it was non stop because the odd mummify is humorous and the film is bad and badder but the music is good band as a film it is stylish and the climax is mixed with a dancing style.ong bak 3 needneeded more action more music. Style and it could have been fun but no and tony hads to try his best to entertain me.

pizzapop3 I registered onto IMDb just so I can tell you that this is the worst martial arts movie I've ever seen. I saw and enjoyed both the other movies. I had low expectations for this one, and they weren't met. In fact, the movie made me angry. The story seems to have been written by a random word generator - it involves nonsensical curses, a king who has unintentionally funny hallucinations, a crow woman who sounds like a female transformer, and things that happen that didn't really happen. I tried to understand what was going on, and I did not succeed.There's also scenes of graphic violence and torture that is a lot more mean spirited than what we've seen in Tony Jaa's other movies. This isn't fun, and it's not like the movie has any deeper meaning or interesting characters to justify it. Do we really need to see an uninterrupted shot of a person's throat being slit open and blood spewing out? How about two? The fight scenes? There's only one or two long ones, late in the movie, and that's when I perked up. Unfortunately, they're a disappointment. They're obviously sped up and sometimes there are wires involved. The moves Jaa does are the same ones he does in all his movies, except not as good and sometimes obviously choreographed. As expected, everyone attacks one at a time, but this time you can see them standing in the background waiting their turn. Tony Jaa's gotta make some better choices - the guys career has been going downhill after his first movie. The guy's got talent but it's being completely wasted.
