An excellent film. Reminiscent of late 80's-90's Hong Kong crime cinema, a well written piece that follows rules of logic and consequence, rather than deus ex machina or actions for the sake of the plot. Every character is well-written, although by comparison to the leads some minor characters' acting suffered noticeably. Must watch if you like gripping thrillers in a modern setting with a sort of fever dream bent.

Relentless in its pace. A long movie, but it maintains the development well, keeping us glued to our seats. Possibly influenced by John Woo / Chao Yun Fat as well as "Mad Max", or even Billy Tang, a very Thai take on the one night in Hell crime cinema. Hearts of gold combine with blood-soaked violence to make an enjoyable evening.

Kudos to the film team! All effects were bang on, there was nothing wrong with it.

Bangkok Breaking: Heaven and Hell delivers a relentless thrill ride packed with explosive action, unexpected twists, and a barrage of set pieces. It attempts to cram an overwhelming amount of content into its runtime, resulting in a chaotic blend of influences that ultimately detracts from the experience. The film struggles to find its identity, leading to a convoluted interpretation of a straightforward narrative-a remarkable "achievement" by director Kome Kongkiat Komesiri, if I may say so with a hint of sarcasm.

The plot revolves around Wanchai, a former paramedic burdened by guilt who now works as a courier. After a traumatic incident leaves his colleague Pond severely injured, Wanchai is consumed by remorse and expelled from his team. Despite this, he continues to assist others, only to witness a series of tragic events unfold around him.

While the cinematography is commendable, the film introduces an overwhelming number of characters and subplots, leaving me indifferent to the fates of those involved. Only a handful of storylines receive any resolution, such as Bank finding closure with his father, Sin seeking redemption for his past, and Meiji discovering humility. Ultimately, Wanchai confronts his own history amidst nearly two and a half hours of relentless violence.

I was hoping for a deeper narrative, but instead, I found a shallow spectacle filled with action, contrived drama, and simplistic character development., but instead, I found a shallow spectacle filled with action, contrived drama, and simplistic character development.

Oh where to begin.

The movie in short is the idiotic hero who got fired as a paramedic gets caught up in a kidnapping situation and how he manages to extract himself out.

There are waaay too many sub plots, characters who come and go and the plot loses itself after half hour. Honestly the kidnapper did a good job in acting than the protagonist. I was half hoping a bullet to hero's head would end his and the audience's misery.

The hero literally does not do anything meaningful throughout the movie. Nothing resourceful or smart to show he has brains if not brawn. He basically is a movie set property coming up in 90% of the scenes. In the 2.5 hr runtime I cant think of a single thing he did that stood out.

Oh and dont get me started on the sub plots. There is this kidnapping of a rich guy's daughter which is the main storyline. Mid way we are introduced to drug trafficking, organ trading, guns for hire, rich person plotting land grab, police vs public violence.

All in all I was exhausted by the 2 hr mark and was pleading with the movie to roll credits.

There were too many plots, too many characters arcs and stories without end or focus.

Should have first focused on the film genre; is this a comedy, serious drama, action, crime noir, science fiction, dystopia?

Who is this for... is it a political commentary for the poor, against corruption, in favour of EMT's?

Who are the good guys, who are the bad guys?

...There's double cross, triple cross, back stabbings, front stabbings & a moral moron as the main protagonist.

He is an idiot!

The "Hero" cannot seem to get out of his own way!

He basically has the morality of a child - I cannot lie because lying is bad but seems to lack the understanding that you should not put a little girl in harm's way.

This film is all over the place. Do not recommend.
