(Rocket Raja)
Dynamite Warrior, the blockbuster
hit of 2006, directed by Chalerm Wongpim will now speak in Tamil. Titled
Rocket Raja, the movie is about Thai martial arts. Starring Dan Chupong,
the story is set in 1890s Siam. Jone Bang Fai (the Fireball Bandit) is
a young Muay Thai warrior and rocketry expert who steals back water buffalo
taken from poor Isan farmers by unscrupulous cattle raiders. He is also
searching for a man with a tattoo who killed his parents.
Meanwhile, a local nobleman, Lord Waeng, wants to create a market for the steam tractors he's selling. So he hires a hulking convict, 'The Thief', to kill all the cattle traders and round up all the water buffalo for slaughter, depriving farmers of the draft animals they need to cultivate rice. Lord Waeng's men are eventually pitted against Nai Hoi Sing, a cattle trader with supernatural martial arts powers and a tattoo on his chest. The tattoo gets Jone Bang Fai's attention, and while the Thief is trying to steal Sing's cattle herd, Jone Bang Fai tries to attack Sing, but is repelled.
Lord Waeng then enlists Jone
Bang Fai in a scheme to defeat Sing. To do so, they also need the help
of the Black Wizard, who was once cursed by Sing so that he cannot withstand
sunlight. The Black Wizard says the only way to defeat Sing and reverse
his spells is to use the menstrual blood of a virgin - the Black Wizard's
daughter, E'Sao. Rocket Raja will it the screens soon.
