Ong-Bak: Muay Thai Warrior - Critical Reception

Critical Reception

According to some critics, Ong-Bak is an unabashed "Hey, look at what I can do!" action movie starring the main character's martial arts abilities. Its onrush of chase scenes, hand-to-hand combat and acrobatics, sometimes shown multiple times from different angles, drew notice for its quality, inventive moves and lack of CGI and wire-fu. The film currently holds an 85% "Fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Famous quotes containing the words critical and/or reception:

    Good critical writing is measured by the perception and evaluation of the subject; bad critical writing by the necessity of maintaining the professional standing of the critic.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s face but their own; which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
