Starting off as a black comedy, things soon turn more sinister, and gory, in this inventive and must see slice of Thai cinema.

It’s basically just ninety minutes of acrobatic fight sequences, nail-biting stuntwork and laughable plot devices, so enjoy!

Winds up being a complete mess of a movie that is neither suitable for kids nor action-packed enough for fight fans.

Eye-popping displays of martial arts mixed with WWE style chair and table smashing exhilarate the senses.

Despite the slick visual look, kooky set up and a little too much reliance on wirework and CGI enhancement come the last third, ‘Raging Phoenix’ is really what we loved about the fight flicks from Hong Kong’s golden age.

Rittikrai fashions numerous scenes of mayhem and gets the flexible newcomer Na Tae-Joo to perform the kind of outlandish kicks that seem to defy logic.

Some of the fight scenes are truly out of this world and I’m sure that fans of ‘Ong Bak’ will find plenty to appreciate here.
