All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.

I am not familiar with this lil actress before i viewed this movie but i plan on seeking out more of her stuff. From what i have read from other reviews Chocolat and Raging Phoenix are the next couple i will be seeking out. If "This Girl Is Badass" is considered the "worst" of the 3 i can absolutely not wait to see those. Jeeja Yanin is like a cute mini female version of the great Jackie Chan. I was simply amazed at watching her stunt capability and pure martial arts skills. Yes this film is i suppose considered a martial arts comedy as it was but it was also indeed so much more. I am extremely impressed with my introduction to lil miss Jeeja Yanin....i highly recommend all other martial arts film fans to check this lil lady out. Like a freakin idiot i gave the TV a standing ovation right here in my living room at the conclusion of this film lol....color me absolutely impressed!!!!! CHECK THIS ONE OUT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!!

If you enjoy the Jackie Chan style movies of comedy and action mixed together with a bunch of physical acrobatics and stunts, then you will definitely also light "Jukkalan" (with the amazingly bad English title of "This Girl is Badass").The story is about Jukkalan (played by JeeJa Yanin) who lives with Wang (played by Petchtai Wongkamlao (who also directed the movie). Jukkalan works as a bike messenger, delivering questionable goods to an even less questionable clientèle. The young Duan (played by Chalerm Yamchamang) is in love with Jukkalan, but she doesn't acknowledge him or his courting, as she has her eyes set on Pong (played by Sthit Amornvej). Things heat up and turn dangerous as various questionable bosses wants their goods and the bike messengers soon find themselves in over their heads.Storywise, then "Jukkalan" was adequate. The story was simple and very easy to follow, however it was simple to the point where it was starting to be a tad too much. But the pace of the movie, the action and the chance to see JeeJa Yanin in a comedic action role more than makes up for the lack of a proper storyline.Something that really had be puzzled were the characters in the movie. Most of them were really odd and hilarious, not to mention very much out there.While "Jukkalan" doesn't match "Chocolate" or "Raging Phoenix", it is a must watch for all fans of JeeJa Yanin.

I first saw JeeJa Yanin in Chocolate, so when I saw a copy of this movie I went ahead and bought it.First off, you need to know this is a comedy with action vs the normal action with some humor. What this ultimately means though is that even though it did a fairly good job at both the subtitles and English language tracks, the humor just does not translate well.I seriously encourage you to watch the trailer for the movie first before you watch the movie itself. On the DVD there is a scene in it that does not appear in the movie, yet it will help explain her reference to elephants later on.On the bright side the action is still good and they continue to do real stunt work like old school Jackie Chan.

If you've seen Ong bak series, bangkok KO, chocolate or any action stuff from siamese team. You will know what you will see once you make a decision to watch this movie. One thing that I notice from every thai action movie I ever see is they never tell us how the main character know how to fight! They just can fight automatically and very skillfully. I don't know but I honestly enjoying this movie because its fighting choreography is awesome although we always see that move, you know like bare-knuckle and I wonder why they never using gun, that's more easier right? But for me, for action lover like me this movie is considered OK and watchable, have some funny moment and interesting subplot like love, drugs dealer and like thai always do. Just watch it!
