Awesome! 1 was okay, 2 was much better, and 3, wow. It was really good. 1 was not really the first in the series of these flicks, but 2 and 3 were a series and 3 was one of those rare dealios in which the second in a series kicks over the first. The writing, the directing, the acting, the cinematography, etc. were awesome. The only goofer was the soundtrack. On a few occasions, it was music that was so off that you said, "What the hell is that" and it pulled you away from the on screen acting. When a soundtrack does that, you have a bad one.
The fighting style of Tony Jaa (leader of the film) is really different and something else. There was Shakespeare's Hamlet, a series of subplots, Rocky etc. all twisted in here. It was a total experience and introduction to a culture/time that was way foreign and really intriguing. Petchtai Wongkamlao who was in the first Ong Bak (2003) was in this one too and played a really good role as a crazy dude. Funny as...well, funny.
