High school senior Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) moves with his mother (Randee Heller) from Newark, New Jersey to Reseda, a neighborhood in the San

Fernando Valley region of Los Angeles, California. Their apartment’s handyman is an odd but kindly and humble Okinawan immigrant named Mr. Miyagi (Pat

Morita).
Daniel meets Ali Mills (Elisabeth Shue), a high school cheerleader, but earns the enmity of her ex-boyfriend, Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka), a karate student.

Johnny is the best student at the Cobra Kai dojo, where he is taught an unethical, vicious form of martial arts. Daniel knows some karate from books, and from a few

months’ experience at the YMCA, but is the victim of repeated beatings from Johnny and his friends.
When Miyagi witnesses one of the beatings, he intervenes and defeats all five Cobra Kai with ease. Awed, Daniel asks Miyagi to be his teacher. Miyagi refuses, but

agrees to go with Daniel to the Cobra Kai dojo in order to resolve the conflict. They confront the sensei, John Kreese (Martin Kove), an ex-Special Forces Vietnam

Veteran who sneers at the concepts of mercy and restraint. Kreese and Miyagi agree to a match between Johnny and Daniel in two months’ time at the “All Valley

Karate Tournament”, where Cobra Kai students can fight Daniel on equal terms. Miyagi also requests that the bullying stop while Daniel trains. Kreese orders his

students to leave Daniel alone, but threatens that if Daniel does not show up for the tournament, the harassment will resume and Miyagi will also become a

target.Miyagi becomes Daniel’s teacher and, slowly, a surrogate father figure. He begins Daniel’s training by having him perform laborious chores such as waxing

cars, sanding a wooden floor, painting a fence, and refinishing Miyagi’s house. Each chore is accompanied with a specific movement, such as

clockwise/counter-clockwise hand motions. Daniel eventually feels frustrated, believing he has learned nothing of karate. When he expresses his frustration, Miyagi

reveals that Daniel has been learning defensive blocks through muscle memory learned by performing the chores.

Tony Jaa practice some incredible move for fighting and chasing scenes in Ong Bak Movie and also show some ancient form of Muay Boran (the predecessor to Muay Thai)

Tony Jaa’s Training: “My master used to be an actor and a director. I learned from the sets of the movies of my master and I would work on the sets, everything from being a waterboy. Then I went on to study at a physical education university where they taught every type of martial arts and sports.” Now, Jaa trains “8 hours a day. I wake up five to six a.m., run about 10 kilometers, then do a warm-up and go over all the moves of Muay Thai. Then gymnastics for flexibility.”

Tony Jaa’s Style: “I love Muay Thai and love any form of martial art. Muay Thai is able to show Thai culture and provide entertainment as well in its clearest form. The main part of Muay Thai is using the knees and the elbows. And the culture and the heritage that goes into Muay Thai is different from other martial arts. The incorporation of gymnastics into Muay Thai where I do a backflip and kicks… make Muay Thai seem prettier.”

Muay Thai in Film: “Muay Thai hasn’t been used in any films that we’ve seen and I wanted to bring that Muay Thai to films for people to know it and as a Thai person, that’s important. It’s different in the way they present the martial arts, but all martial arts have the same basis of being part of nature and the way they present themselves and the way they name the different types of moves. Like Muay Thai, we put an emphasis on the knees and the elbows, whereas Wushu, they name their moves after animals.”

Real Action in Ong-Bak: Ong-Bak, Tony Jaa’s first film, showcases Jaa’s natural abilities without special effects or wire enhancements. At a time when even Jackie Chan is using wires, Jaa felt “I want to make it seem realistic and for viewers to see that it is possible to do those stunts on your own.” This includes a chase scene where Jaa runs along the tops of people’s heads. “It’s hard,” Jaa said. “You have to practice until you’re used to it.” And the people below? “They’re okay with it.”

Tony Jaa Goes One on One in Ong-Bak: To make each one on one fight scene look unique, “It depends on the person. I look at the character. A more fierce person, I put more fierce character into it. Or the Japanese guy who does a lot of footwork, we would do more Muay Thai sequences into that.” Jaa also picks up props and fights with them. “The image of Jackie Chan is already there, and Jackie Chan is my inspiration but sometimes picking up those props and working them into the film just fits in better.”
