REVIEW:
" The hook for “Raging Phoenix” is that director Limtrakul and action choreographer Rittikrai have come up with an original form of combat by combining the free-flowing rhythms of breakdancing with Muay Thai. And lots of drinking. It works, to an extent, but more often than not the whole thing looks and feels clumsy, not helped by the fact that the breakdancers are probably not real martial artists, and as a result their kicks and punches don’t look quite as convincing. It’s saying something when the tiny girl actually looks like she can kick ass even before she is supposed to have been privy to the (in this case, literally) secret “sauce” of the Muay Thai fighting breakdancers.
It’s beyond reason to expect too much from a movie like “Raging Phoenix”. It’s just understood that the acting will be bad, the emotions so forced as to be painful, and plotting only necessary to get our heroes from fight A to fight B. That’s what director Rashane Limtrakul provides, and honestly, it’s more than enough to carry the day. The action is really what everyone has paid money to see, and “Phoenix” certainly doesn’t skimp on the goodies. The choreography takes some getting used to and is nowhere near the punishing type of combat we’ve become used to from Rittikrai, perhaps a direct result of having to incorporate the stylish moves of breakdancing into the mix.
Things do pick up in the final 30 minutes, when the good guys finally discover the hidden lair of the baddies (underground, no less) and converge for a final series of seemingly neverending combat. Interestingly enough, Yanin’s style seems to revert back almost exclusively to Muay Thai during the film’s latter half, which is telling. And although you probably didn’t expect for it to be any less “out there”, the bad guys are led by an Amazonian fighter wearing a bikini bra. I kid you not. She is aided in her criminal empire by two kung fu types, and her real goal for kidnapping those Thai girls? Well let’s just say I’ve never heard of pheromones being that lucrative.
A movie like “Raging Phoenix” and, indeed, a lot of the current crop of action movies that are coming out of Thailand defies the traditional review. Which is why I won’t bother criticizing the acting, or the screenplay, and just tell you that if you like the idea of little Jeeja Yanin flying around onscreen taking it to the boys, then “Raging Phoenix” is your cup of tea
. Anyone who finds that notion too ludicrous, or demands an explanation as to how a rich girl is able to grasp enough of Muay Thai to take on a warehouse full of baddies after a couple of days of training need not apply. "
