"Appreciate the feature as more of a silent film adventure and it's a blast, furthering the curious career of Tony Jaa, who steps behind the camera to co-direct this often exhilarating but supremely baffling martial arts picture."

""Ong Bak 2" is so obviously contrived for the sole purpose of showing off Tony Jaa's martial arts weapons expertise that the film soon wears out its welcome."

1.5/4
"...the film eventually settles into a groove of tedious training sequences and context-free battles..."
Reel Film Reviews

C
"Not really a sequel but more a misguided prequelish follow-up...obviously enjoyed a much larger budget than its titular predecessor, but it's nowhere near as much fun."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
63/100
"An effort that handily trumps the first in every respect,
Ong-Bak 2
further cements Tony Jaa's status as one of the era's key action stars."

Jeremy Heilman
"The action bits make you feel like you've had pure adrenaline pumped into you, but the attention to artistic detail... is like something you'd expect from a Hollywood epic..."
Flick Filosopher
MaryAnn Johanson
"Stretched to nearly two full hours and deploying a seemingly endless array of flashbacks sequences, it becomes almost impossible to follow for more than a few minutes at a time and Jaa's utterly charm-free performance doesn't make things any easier."

Peter Sobczynski
3/5
"The general incomprehensibility is further hampered by poor subtitles and a stoic tone which suggests it's taking itself much too seriously"
