  Action thriller about the exploits of a death mute hitman working for a seedy Thai gangster. Despite the interesting disability the story doesn't herald too many surprises. But the film has enough style, heart and bloody gun-play to distinguish itself among other contract-killer flicks out there and it's head and shoulders above many of them. Well worth checking out!

  Magnificent Thailand action movie I ever seen with a deaf mute assassin. The imagery is beautiful and imaginative, excellent editing and vibrant colors. The cast was good, especially Pavarit Mongkolpisit playing Kong, the deaf assassin, he did a fantastic job, showing a full range of emotion without uttering a word. That does make 100% sense to know about a deaf person who could learn experiences and everything to become smart and professional one, not dumb in this film, just like me and other Deafies. I understood what Kong was doing in the scenes including communicating with a beautiful girl and eyes open on gunfights.

  The Pang brothers manage to use fancy editing, bright neon lights, and a memorable soundtrack without once coming off as pretentious. Kong is a wonderful protagonist, and conveys heart felt emotions despite the inability to speak. His final attempt at reading out what he wrote in a… More
  The Pang brothers manage to use fancy editing, bright neon lights, and a memorable soundtrack without once coming off as pretentious. Kong is a wonderful protagonist, and conveys heart felt emotions despite the inability to speak. His final attempt at reading out what he wrote in a letter to his beloved Fon is incredibly moving and very sad. Great action and hard hitting drama.

  Gritty depiction of a handful of amorals make me wonder "What's the point of this film??" Calling the story threadbare is an insult to fishnet stockings. Let's see how many words it takes to describe: Deaf/mute assassin meets girl, then avenges mentor and a friend. Seriously, that's the entire 100 minutes in an eleven word nutshell. The scenes of killing (and there are many, but often brief) would appeal only to people who watch those wretched "World's Wildest Drivers" TV shows. The only point of interest is that the director does have an interesting style and offers some original impressionistic images. Unfortunately, given the non-story, he feels the need to shoot the entire film in an arty, crazy-angled manner to distract from the gaping absence of plot. My advice: skip it. There's a good chance the American version represents an improvement.

  Brilliant and visually stunning thriller about a deaf and mute hitman called Wong who usually takes out victims in a quick, cold blooded manner but this starts to change when he meets,and falls for,a local pharmacy worker.But things are difficult due to his line of work and the fact that there's problems in the local underworld that Wong, and his brother, get caught up in. This has some great action, violence and has plenty of drama and tension to. The Pang brothers do a brilliant directing job but i'd say the only downside would be to many different styles of picture during flashbacks etc, they over-do it a bit there but other than that, good script and story and some decent acting make this a stylish, entertaing and compelling film. I can't begin to imagine how Nicolas Cage and friends can even come close to matching the quality of this film.I highly doubt they will and it'll be some made for chavs thriller which will be about as deep as a puddle so watch this and see how it was really done!

  The incredibly stylish editing elevates this otherwise boring and mediocre movie. I can't honestly say it was bad, but it didn't pack near the visceral or emotional punch that some of John Woo's lesser Hong Kong films did. I can't say I'm pumped for the… More

  Decent flick, good cinematography. There are some plotholes that really diminish this film though.
