Aroview: Created by the makers of the stupendous ONG BAK, this lesser action vehicle is contrived around a showdown in the Thai countryside between a drug-cartel and a retired cop, who has teamed up with a squadron of sports-people on a charity tour.

Attempting to hold the country to ransom with a nuclear missile aimed at Bangkok, the would-be terrorists find their plans upset by the incredible athleticism of their opponents. Incorporating some utterly fearless stuntwork (no CGI here), this will leave you gobsmacked by various death-defying leaps, aerial trajectories and bruising hand-to-hand encounters.

I find this review offensive! I don’t agree with this review. I agree with this review.
2 stars (Good Try) A little ridiculous, this action flick has a team of sports players take on nuclear terrorists using unique acrobatic sports-related skills. At least the choreography and athleticism are unique, and you may enjoy it just for that. ~Tom H

2 stars (Good Try) For action fans full stop although the stunt work is hard to resist (watching that is). ~Tubbs
