Unlike the first film’s modern-day setting, Ong Bak 2 is a period action epic set in 15th-century Thailand (then Siam). Tony Jaa directs and stars as Tien, a young nobleman whose family is massacred by a treacherous warlord.

Watching this in "Extra Quality" (often a euphemism for 720p or 1080p WEB-DLs or BluRay rips on piracy hubs) allows the viewer to see the texture of the Thai jungles and the intricate costume design that defines the Tien character.
