Have you seen Bangkok Dangerous yet?

Posted by Roberta Posted on: 09/19/08

Have you seen Bangkok Dangerous yet?

If you haven't seen this movie yet, then you might want to skip this review, because it does contain spoilers.

Bangkok Dangerous left me guessing a lot.  Guessing why anyone would want to spend that $9.50 at a movie theater to see this movie. 

Nicolas Cage is hot, so I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt.  Those sexy blue eyes can be so deceptive. 

He plays an assassin in Thailand who's sent there by someone to kill four important people.  He enlists the help of a gopher-turned-student, Kong. 

During the movie, he details the rules of being an assassin, by pretty much saying that 'you don't get involved with anyone outside of work.'  While at a pharmacy, he notices this mute Thai girl, who he ends up dating.  He falls for her, he kills people in front of her, end of story.  Oh yeah, and he's struggling with what he does for a living, if you want to add that to the mix.

The ending what was most trivial for me.  After he has opted not to kill the main target, who actually turns out to be a good person, the ending was rather stupid.  He takes out himself with a shot to the head, along with a rival assassin boss.

If it sounds stupid, that's because it was.  I'd much rather see him steal more cars.
