Furie poster 01

Movie / 2019 / Action / Drama / Thriller

Furie

Why this pick

Like Chocolate, it centers a determined woman whose intimate family stakes fuel exceptionally physical, close-quarters action, with Vietnamese street settings giving the fights a raw immediacy.

The Villainess poster 02

Movie / 2017 / Action / Drama

The Villainess

Why this pick

Its female-led revenge arc and acrobatic, high-impact combat echo Chocolate’s mix of vulnerability and ferocity, while its restless camera makes each set piece feel dangerously immediate.

Raging Phoenix poster 03

Movie / 2009 / Thriller / Action

Raging Phoenix

Why this pick

Another showcase for JeeJa Yanin, this Thai action film pairs her elastic athleticism with playful, unusual fight design and an underdog team dynamic.

Ong Bak: Muay Thai Warrior poster 04

Movie / 2003 / Action / Martial Arts

Ong Bak: Muay Thai Warrior

Why this pick

From Chocolate’s director, it has the same love of clear, largely practical Muay Thai choreography, escalating stuntwork, and a straightforward hero pushed through hostile urban spaces.

The Raid poster 05

Movie / 2011 / Action / Crime / Thriller

The Raid

Why this pick

It trades Chocolate’s warmth for relentless tension, but shares the pleasure of a compact premise built around legible hand-to-hand combat and a hero surviving against overwhelming odds.

01 / THE STORY

A little about the film.

Zin is the Thailand lover of Yakuza boss Masashi. Zin was previously the girlfriend of Thai gangster No. 8, who was jealous of her relationship with rival gangster Masashi. After Zin chooses Masashi, he shoots his own toe as a symbolic gesture and forbids Zin from ever seeing him again. Zin asks Masashi to go back to Japan, as they would not be able to be together safely. He begrudgingly leaves.
