Raging Phoenix: Sometimes the only explanation you need is "made in Asia."
Raging Phoenix
She's a thrillseeker with something to prove. He's a master of drunken breakdancing kung-fu. Together, they fight a kidnapping ring!
I...
I...
Okay, let me try to get everything in.
Raging Phoenix is about a girl who learns a certain style of drunken Mauy Thai fused with hip-hop.
She teams up with other breakdancing asskickers to take down a kidnapping ring.
Her enemies include sex traders, homicidal drag queens, Amazonian drug lords, and masked fighter ninjas who hop around on bladed pogo sticks.
And it's the female martial artist from Chocolate.
INTERESTED YET?
In the beginning Thailand created Jeeja Yanin, and she was a pissed-off punk rocker with an anger management problem, and Thailand saw that it was Good.
Then came the evil kidnappers hopping around on tricked-out pogo sticks.
NO, REALLY.
A mysterious hottie artist comes to her rescue and whisks her away, but not before a series of high-speed kicks and elbow jams that send the... MASKED POGO MEN... flying through the air like bowling pins.
Her savior doesn't like shirts, and this is also Good.
At their hideout, his useless friends Dogshit and Pigshit (their other friend, Bullshit, is introduced later) stumble around snickering to themselves and swigging liquor...
... until they're attacked, and they suddenly burst out with DRUNKEN THAI BOXING, HIP-HOP STYLE. It's. It's beautiful. It's breakdancing... and martial arts! They make the worm a lethal blow!
Striking fear in the hearts of all hairdryers.
Deu wants to help them bust the kidnapping ring, and demands training from the gang.
Yep, still doesn't like shirts.
EPIC TRAINING MONTAGE!
It's hilarious because each level of badass is broken by Deu trying to drink herself in a coma.
Once imbued with Style of the Slurring Soft Fist, she can single-handedly wipe out a group of thugs... by... dancing at them.
And kicking them in the teeth.
But mostly dancing.
OUR ACTION HEROINE HAS ARRIVED. ALL HAIL LIVER POISONING.
THIS ISN'T EVEN THE COOLEST FIGHT IN THE MOVIE. I remind you that Jeeja Yanin is a legitimate martial artist and does all her own stunts.
Can you spot the stealthy kidnapper?
We eventually learn the victims are targeted by smell. At first I thought it was just a bad translation, like they meant aura or general air, but no, they REALLY MEAN LITERAL SMELL.
And the grand conspiracy behind the abductions? Let's just say you'll need some of Deu's alcohol to believe it.
TEAM BRUISER AT YOUR SERVICE.
DOUBLE TEAM! It's almost like swingdancing or cheerleading in the sense it's totally coordinated and they're using Deu as a FLYING WEAPON. *___* My favorite OTPs are the ones who break necks.
There comes a point where you can't be sure whether you're watching something awesomely ridiculous or just ridiculously awesome. Like, bladed pogo sticks, hip-hop martial arts, a showdown between drunken Muay Thai and drunken Chinese Fist, not to mention a three-way fight in the villain's underground caverns on a series of ROPE BRIDGES while the OST pumps orchestral Latin chanting. Is it awesome, or is it too awesome???
See the moves in action: check out the trailer and tell me you don't want to WATCH THAT SHIT IMMEDIATELY.
