What is it that you get when you cross Tony Jaa (or Jackie Chan) with Dustin Hoffman from Rainman?

You get Chocolate.

Thats right. Chocolate the next great export from Thailand. This is another great action film in the vein of Chan or Jaa. Its a revenge movie…its an action movie…its a comedy.

The story involves Zen. A perhaps 13 year old girl. Her mother was once in the mob but was forced to leave when she fell in love with an opposiing clans leader. She leaves and soon after Zen is born. But Zen has some issues. Shes Autistic. But we soon realise this is not a handicap in any way shape or form. Zen is special.

Zen can easily reproduce anything she sees. And her reflexes are like a cat. Jen and her friend soon embark on an ill advised attempt to strike back at the people that owe her mother money from her past life in order to pay medical bills. This takes them down a road that leads to danger, comedy, and some very intense and well coreographed action.

The film from Thailand is directed by Prachya Pinkaew and stars Yanin Vismitananda as Zen.

Yanin appears to be about 13 in the film but was tremendously gifted at both acting and action in which she performs all her own stunts without wires or tricks. She trained for 4 years for this film. This is trully amazing to watch.
