Bangkok Dangerous Never one to shy away from an action flick, Nicolas Cage plays an assassin who travels to Thailand - to kill a lot of people - in Bangkok Dangerous. Directed by the Pang Brothers, the movie is a remake of their '99 film of the same name.Plenty of wild action, and the exotic city of Bangkok as the backdrop, helps make this a satisfying crime-thriller.
