This the trailer for Bangkok Dangerous, a Pang Brothers-directed remake of their own über popular Hong Kong flick. Nic Cage plays a hitman who goes to Thailand on business and ends up growing a conscience. 

His character was a deaf-mute in the original, but they took that part out because Nic Cage’s face doesn’t move anymore.  Having him tell a story solely through expressions would’ve required a much larger CGI budget (or a forehead double).  I think a better solution would’ve been for him to wear the bear suit the whole movie.  And instead of falling in love, he could just punch chicks.

Also, I can’t believe they’re making an action movie set in Thailand without Tony Jaa.  Tony Jaa and Nic Cage in a bearsuit?  Talk about the ultimate buddy action flick!  GRR, NOBODY PUTS BABY ELEPHANT IN THE CORNER!
