Bangkok Dangerous - Film Review


Bangkok Dangerous is a slick film directed by the Pang Brothers starring Nicolas Cage as Joe the central character who happens to be a well-paid assassin.

The title of this film gives the location of the film, yes Bangkok, Thailand. Joe has four assignments or kills of some unsavoury types in Bangkok.

The way that Joe works is interesting, and the story is clever and fresh as it's done differently, which I haven't seen in a film before.


As the film progresses, we see Joe start to date a Thai lady who works in a chemist shop, and we start to see a different side to Joe, the film does slow at these encounters shows us the calming influence in his life of death.

What does this do to his mental state and outlook on life? You won't be disappointed at the thoughtfulness of the story, and how the story ends.
