Even you have to admit that if it WAS more like Schindler's List, it'd probably be the single greatest movie ever. Ting could have used his prize winnings to buy Jews.
And then fought them to win more money to buy more Jews.
I did generally enjoy the movie, but it just seemed to be OVERLY filled with convenient showcases for stuntwork at times. Like, hit-you-over-the-head moments of "Look at this! Stunts! OMG STUNTS!" I'm not berating the movie for being more about action than story. I'm just criticizing it for moments of poor execution of said action.
And the closed captioning really did get very annoying for me. Sure, the movie's not really about words, but I'm not deaf and don't need to be treated like I am. Especially when they decided "They, this is too hard to translate. I'll just say they're Shouting in Thai or something and call in a day."
