Reuniting the stars and filmmakers responsible for the universally acclaimed Thai action movie Ong-Bak, The Bodyguard marks the writing and directorial debut of Tony Jaa's Ong-Bak co-star, the multi-talented actor, comedian and TV host Petchtai Wongkamlau. The film also includes Tony Jaa's only screen appearance to date since starring in Ong-Bak.
A balletic, ballistic, comedy stunt-fest, The Bodyguard begins with a bang and never lets up on the action. From its explosive opening shootout to its devastating kung fu showdown by way of several outrageous chase sequences (including a naked Wongkom on the run and the ingenious simultaneous destruction of four airborne BMW cars!), The Bodyguard is a must-see movie for all fans of action cinema.
The Bodyguard (cert. 18) will be released on DVD (£15.99) by Momentum Asia on 19th September 2005.
