Ong Bak 2 jump kicks audience to the past

Ong Bak II: The Beginning is an excellent film. 
The fighting and action scenes are truly spectacular.  The acting and story is greatly improved from 2003's Ong Bak: The Thai Warrior.
Tien (Tony Jaa, director and star) is born as part of a royal household, but when he is 10 he witnesses his family murdered and survives on his own, until he is captured. He survives a brush with death and falls in with a tribe of bandits. He works his way up, learning martial arts, and then, when he is about to be made their leader, he sees a chance to avenge the death of his family.
The only thing, it is supposed to be a prequel to 2005's Ong Bak, however, there is absolutely no connection present between the two films?
Regardless, the cinematography is excellent and the score is beautiful.

It is subtitled, so be prepared to read between people getting their asses kicked. But, if you are a martial arts enthusiast, this one is a must see. 
Ong Bak II is currently playing at Alamo South Lamar (1120 South Lamar Blvd., 78704) until Nov.12, and it is showing in a very limited capacity.
