Movie Reviews

ReelTalk Movie Reviews - 10/10 by Donald J. LevitOne cannot help but be in this winning champion's corner.
Salt Lake Tribune - 8/10 by Sean P. MeansStar Asanee Suwan is tenderly moving as Toom, showing his struggle to find internal peace as he fights savagely to get it.
Village Voice - 8/10 by Chuck StephensThose in search of a liberating treatise about empowered sexuality may find too much of the movie's erotic potential sublimated in sports metaphors, while those looking for a martial arts matinee will find its feats of physical prowess shriveled next to a fully engorged genre workout like "Ong-Bak."
Newsday - 8/10 by Jan Stuart'He fights like a man so he can become a woman,' reads the ad, but Uekrongtham's restrained film is neither as lurid nor as kitschy as the tagline portends.
Los Angeles CityBeat - 8/10 by Andy KleinAt almost two hours, the film might have benefited from some tightening, but that's a minor complaint.
TV Guide - 7/10 by Ken FoxLike his intrepid hero, theater-turned-film director Ekachai Uekrongtham never misses an opportunity to brighten an otherwise ordinary palette with just a bit more color.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution - 7/10 by Bob LonginoThere is only so much dichotomy one can show between brutal fights and caviar dreams, and the repetition becomes tiresome.
One Guy's Opinion - 7/10 by Frank SwietekMade without much finesse and tends to lumber rather than soar, but still possesses a sweetness that's rather disarming.
Seattle Times - 6/10 by John HartlIt's too long and simplistic for the slight story it tells.
Slant Magazine - 6/10 by Ed GonzalezThe birth of Parinya's gender struggle is Freudian to the nth degree, but the confusion is evoked as a magical-realist pageantry of clashing cultural and sexual signifiers.
