Bangkok Dangerous 2.0 (2008)

Trailer:


很多人都不知道, 这电影其实泰国版的REMAKE. 庆幸的, 我之前有机会看过泰国原版. 泰国原版应该是在鬼妻(NANGNAK)之后, 拳霸(ONGBAK)之前. 换句话说, Bangkok Dangerous泰国原版当时只有VCD在大马市场部面世.

先来看看REMAKE版本的故事: 身为职业杀手的男主角, 远赴泰国执行他的最后一个任务。其后他就决意洗手不干. 男主角找来了当地的小混混成为他接任务的跑腿, 因为小混混的忠心, 往后成了主角的好帮手并徒弟. 另外同时且在泰国结了识聋哑的女主角，两人萌生爱.主角一边谈恋爱, 一边接任务, 一边训练徒弟. 不过杀手界是黑暗的, 不是杀人就是被杀, 在一次主角任务失败后, 自己且成为被追杀的对象.

原版的中当然都是泰国人, 故事讲述一位杀手训练一位聋哑成为徒弟的故事. 聋哑徒弟因为要谋生, 才成为杀手的. 故事有提到一些杀手的规矩, 像是你在知道被杀目标后, 就不能拒绝这案件. 还有不可以杀你的雇主, 但可以买另外杀手去杀你的雇主等. 这些在新的版本都没提到, 新版只提到如何干得干净利落, 就是一定要请人来成为接任务的跑腿, 而且不能呆在同一个地方太久, 离开时杀了你一定要杀了你请来的跑腿. 原版的比较像边缘人的故事, 新版的就只是单纯的商业片.

两者比较下,原版比较好看. 因为我看过原版, 也知道原版的精彩, 所以我只给3/5. 未看的或许还值得3.5/5吧. 就一般商业片, 美景, 美女, 英雄, 枪战, 没什么特别.

此外要提的是泰国原版的Bangkok Dangerous才是我第一次看彭氏兄弟的电影, 并不是见鬼. 见鬼是我开始注意彭氏兄弟的电影. 个人非常喜欢彭氏兄弟拍摄的鬼戏.

A lot people do not know this movie is a Thailand's remake . Fortunately, I have the opportunity to watch the original verison. The orginal movie comeout between NANGNAK and ONGBAK. In other words, we only can found Bangkok Dangerous in Malaysian market in VCD those day, sadly not screen on cinema.

Let take a look at REMAKE version:
Nicolas Cage as a assasin, went to Thailand to carry out his last mission. He found a local to work for him as a runner for his mission, this local are loyal and some how remind Nicolas Cage as himself. Later on this Thai's local beome became good helper and his apprentice. At the same time Nicolas Cage know a Thai's deaf girl working in a pharmacy, the two fall in love. Un fortunately, killer's career are dark circles, weither
heyou kill or be killed. when Nicolas Cage failed in a mission, he become the target.

How about the Original Vesion:
It tells the story of a killer and a deaf guy training to become his apprentice. These deaf apprentice became a killer just for living. This version mentioned some killer's rules, such as after you know your target, it should not refuse the case. Other rules suck as The killer can not kill your employer, but they can buy other killers ot done the job. employer.

I the new version only mentioned how to do a clean assasin job, that is must hire a runner for simple job, and not stay in the same place for too long, when you leaf must kill youe runner. The original version is more dramtic, and the remake version just ordinary commercial films.

Comparing those two, the original better. I wil give 3 / 5 only because I know the original story. For people who don't know the orginal, perhaps worth 3.5 / 5.
Just like ordinary commercial films, beautiful background, beauty, hero, gun figthing, nothing special.

I want to mention that the movie made by first Pang brothers I watched is the Bangkok Dangerous original version, not The Eye. After The Eye I only began to pay attention to the Pang brothers's movie, especially ghost movie.
