Jun 18 2008New 'Bangkok Dangerous' Clip May Be a Parody of Nic Cage Action Movies
In this clip from Bangkok Dangeous, the following things are somehow all contained within a minute of footage:
- Hot girls ride a boat with someone who appears to be Asia's answer to Hunter S. Thompson.
- A high-speed boat chase between said man (the girls are now gone somehow) and Nicolas Cage.
- Nicolas Cage dodging bullets with only the slightest of shoulder shifts, performed long after the bullet would have hit him.
- Nicolas Cage hijacking a motorcycle in less than a second, riding it a short distance, then jumping back onto another boat.
- Nicolas Cage using an outboard motor as a weapon--by which I mean physically lifting it out of the water and sawing off a man's gun-wielding hand.
- Then he pries the gun out of that guy's lifeless hand and shoots him! Several times!! With his own gun!!! (In case you didn't catch that.)
In short, it needs to be watched several times to be fully appreciated. My only complaint is that Cage didn't slap the guy with his disembodied hand before shooting him.

It's nice to see that he has reprized his hairstyle from his groundbreaking role in Con Air.
Stanley Goodspeed is the fucking tits. If there is no VX gas in this movie I am walking out of the theater.

Lately I'm intrigued by the plastic surgery on the faces of Nicolas Cage & Tom Hanks: I'm wondering which of the two will be the first to face-lift his forehead all the way to the back of his head.

Why would you make a Tony Jaa movie with Nic Cage?

I just flushed something that looked better than this on my lunch break.

I'm guessing this clip is edited together from a much larger scene. Hence the fuck-uppery.

One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble. So says Murray Head.

Most of my friends on horsematch.com also said like this "If there is no VX gas in this movie I am walking out of the theater.".You may join my friends circle to discuss more.

I'm talkin' sandy beaches, umbrella drinks... and dirty, naked freaks.

Well, this was stupid as hell (and I just watched the trailer for the Death Match remake) but I have to point out that maybe Cage didn't lift the engine out of the water, it looked more like he swung it around.
Still, as I said, stupid as hell.

Death RACE. *Sigh*

Uhhh.... so this isn't based on the other Bangkok Dangerous with the cute mute/deaf guy?
I just watched that and when my boyfriend told me Nic Cage was going to be in the remake I wanted to puke.

those boat engines are actually 1400cc car engines with a 3 meter shaft on the end! even if you can swing it it would have gone over the front! that was the worst thing i have ever seen! apart from one night in paris........
