Remorseless assassin Joe (Nicolas Cage) is in Thailand to complete a series of contract killings for a crime boss called Surat (Nirattisai Kaljaruek) . He hires a street punk named Kong (Shahkrit Yamnarm) to run errands for him, all the while planning to kill the youth at the conclusion of his assignment. Instead, Joe becomes Kong's unlikely mentor, and begins a tentative romance with a local shop girl. But, as Joe begins to let his guard down, Surat decides it is time to clean house.

If John Woo were to make films in Thailand this is probably what it would happen. It's a good action film, with a similar feel as "Ong Bak" -- Cage is brooding and dark, painfully awkward at moments but, for the most part, convincing and watchable in this role. Fans of the "Rain" books by Barry Eisler, a bay area writer, will also probably like this film.
