■ Points of view, real bullets better than artificial intelligence
In the Hong Kong action movies are increasingly relying on the hanging also, with stunt doubles or computer stunts instead of real life show, Hollywood action movie That's why The Fighter feels both old and familiar. Despite the fact that only three-wheeled motorcycles appear in the movie's racing scenes, and there are no Chinese weapons in the fights, the power of the performers can be seen in the punches and kicks, every movement, and the opening and closing of every move, which makes people feel the realism of the action. It is said that the hero of the Hong Kong action film fans of the Park Lang Yilin, but he did not therefore play Chinese kung fu, not to mention the use of Hollywood stunts to help, authentic Muay Thai performances, not only to win the audience and publicize the Muay Thai. The result is that our fans love to see, our action movie director even must see, back to basics time has come!
Is it the Thai version of Jackie Chan or Bruce Lee, or Jet Li?
Since the plot of "The Fighter" doesn't have much to offer, the kung fu performance of the male lead becomes the biggest attraction of the movie. Many Hong Kong moviegoers who have seen the film have compared the lead actor, Patrick Lam, to Jackie Chan or Bruce Lee, because of his agility, which has made the moviegoers who have not seen a real action movie for a long time very amazed. Like Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan, the Thai newcomer's debut was a shocker. However, despite his agility, the Thai, who grew up watching movies starring Jackie Chan and others, clearly has a lot to live up to in comparison to Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee. His kung fu is excellent, but his looks are ordinary, and he has neither the humor of Jackie Chan nor the might of Bruce Lee. Even when he was fierce, he was a bit childish, but maybe that's why his one-two punch was so incredible. Even if he doesn't become a Jackie Chan or a Bruce Lee, this young Thai man, who is a big kid, is well worth seeing.
Anecdotes
While not a professional actor, the lead, Pak Rang Eelin, was taught the secret techniques of the film's martial arts instructor, Buraratiga, at the age of 10. Four years ago, by a stroke of luck, Berlatieri recommended him to the director of this movie, and he was honored to be the lead actor of this film. Having practiced kung fu for many years, he is very powerful, and every time he throws a punch, it is as fast as lightning and as heavy as thunder, which can put his opponents to death. As he is using real kung fu in the movie, in order to prevent people from being killed during the shooting, he had to train for two years before the start of the movie, so that he could control the strength of his punches when he was fighting with his opponents and know how to keep his punches in check, so that the official shooting could be smoother.
