Brave

A martial artist is forced by a Thai mafia gang to steal client information from a bank in exchange for his brother, who gas been kidnapped by the gang. When the gang kicks it up by strapping explosives to the man's brother, the man decides it is time to strike back.

Directed by Thanapon Maliwan, Brave leans on a strong ensemble — Michael B., Dean Alexandrou, Vanchart Chunsri — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 2007.
