BANGKOK DANGEROUS (2008)

Plot

When carrying out a hit, assassin Joe always makes use of the knowledge of the local population. On arriving in Bangkok he meets street-kid Kong, who becomes his primary aide. But when Kong is nearly killed, the young lad asks the killer to train him up in the deadly arts, and so, for the first time, Joe finds himself as mentor rather than murderer - an uncharacteristic act of compassion that may well cost him his life. A Hollywood remake of the superior Thai actioner, this is yet another film to add to Nicholas Cage's ever expanding "Huh?!" list of movie choices.
