Member daisho2004 Posted December 10, 2008 Member Share Posted December 10, 2008 Hard Gun: OK I came across this movie being released on DVD starring Tony Jaa has anyone heard of it? DVD Release Date: January 6, 2009 Product Description Martial Arts superstar Tony Jaa (Spirited Killer, The Protector, Ong Bak) costars with his mentor and trainer Panna Rittikrai in this non-stop action assault on your senses. In an a-typical role for Jaa, Tony plays the villian, along with Rittikrai, being hunted down by police after pulling a robbery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Asmo Posted December 10, 2008 Moderator Share Posted December 10, 2008 It's one of the films he and Panna Rittikrai did before Ong-Bak. Which is about all I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member udar55 Posted January 5, 2009 Member Share Posted January 5, 2009 So did anyone find out what this is? I hope it isn't MISSION HUNTER 2 or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member udar55 Posted January 8, 2009 Member Share Posted January 8, 2009 Well, I watched this last night and can confirm it is not MISSION HUNTER 2. Tony Jaa plays Panna Rittikrai's right hand man in this and they are both criminals looking to avenge the death of Panna's brother. The movie is pretty boring until the last 15 minutes when Jaa gets to show off his skills. Panna doesn't have a single fight scene, instead he runs around shooting guns all the time. Here is a bit from the final fight with Jaa using a staff that is pretty impressive: <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value=" "></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" " type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> The DVD cover says it is dubbed and letterboxed at 1.78:1. In actuality, you have the option of watching it dubbed or in Thai with English subs and the film is widescreen at 2.35:1. Check out this amazing dubbing! <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value=" "></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" " type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Alex Posted January 8, 2009 Member Share Posted January 8, 2009 udar that looks like a pass, thanks for the heads up out of curiousity, you imply there's some shooting, i've never seen paana stage a gun fight before... how is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member udar55 Posted January 9, 2009 Member Share Posted January 9, 2009 out of curiousity, you imply there's some shooting, i've never seen paana stage a gun fight before... how is it? Very bad. Guys just pointing and firing single shots repeatedly as his target rolls around. The only amusing thing is that the 6-shooter guns have an endless supply of bullets.

Member GwaiLoMoFo Posted January 11, 2009 Member Share Posted January 11, 2009 Besides a few ridiculously painful stunts here and there, ALL of these old Panna and Jaa films are garbage (imo)! Unwatchable without a quick finger on the FF button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member SiamKnight Posted January 20, 2009 Member Share Posted January 20, 2009 I'm looking for the movie in the pic below, any chance of finding this? I've been looking around Klong-tom in Bangkok but no luck. Any information would be appreciated. I saw this movie back in 1991 when I lived in the USA, I rented it from Thai Supermarket.

Member vismistananda Posted January 21, 2009 Member Share Posted January 21, 2009 I haven't heard of this movie, thanks to you mate in sharing this one. The fighting scenes are kinda bit copied from other movies I've seen, but still it is a kickass scenes. Yes, Tony Jaa can use a staff, he'd train a bit of wushu. Watch Ong Bak 2 to see what I mean.

Member thedirtytiger Posted January 24, 2009 Member Share Posted January 24, 2009 I have that movie you are looking for, it is still around, I bought it maybe 5 months ago..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member The Silver Fox Posted February 1, 2009 Member Share Posted February 1, 2009 I wish I had of seen this thread before I made the mistake of buying Hard Gun. The cover art is totally deceiving, it looks like a movie in the style of Hardboiled, Infernal Affairs etc. In the very least I was expecting a decent crime thriller with some excellent martial arts. Instead, it is a very amateurish action/comedy that has a couple of decent fights towards the end. Tony Jaa is barely in the movie yet he is featured prominently on the cover. Seriously, I can't even give a synopsis of the movie because even thinking about it is nauseating. BCI are should acquire some decent titles instead of marketing this crap Do not buy this movie.

Member Tosh Posted February 2, 2009 Member Share Posted February 2, 2009 Check out this amazing dubbing! I didn't know the Thai's spoke fluent redneck. Figured this would be like the Spirited Killer dvd, just a way to cash in on Jaa's name, both these movies probably had a combined budget of nothing.
