The flick plays a lot like Kevin Costner's early-'90s Robin Hood. Jone Bang Fai is an infamous cattle thief who uses an array of rockets and mad fighting skills to take on whole caravans of cattle traders. Come to find out Jone is stealing cows from the rich and giving them to the poor. Then there is the Sheriff of Nottingham character, who's also stealing buffalo as part of a devious plan to control the tractor market (very complicated Thai economics). He's supported by the Black Wizard, who's a lot like that freaky witch that Morgan Freeman spears at the end of the Costner version. Throw in the menstrual blood of a virgin Maid Marion, and you basically have a carbon copy; just trade the bows and arrows for flying knee kicks and — oh, yeah — lots of explosions.
