Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
The heart of the film may be its action sequences but, even outside the battle arena, 'Chocolate' is a nicely characterised and consistently likeable piece of work.

The world may not have needed a Thai-language martial-arts hybrid of Kill Bill and Rain Man, but by God, it's got one now.

rotten:
Chocolate is risibly sentimental even for a genre not known for its emotional sophistication.

It boils down to this: Thai girl fighting. Is that enough of a movie for you?

fresh:
It's called Chocolate, but Cheese would have been just as good. Soaked with tears, full of schmaltz, and yet strewn with bodies, Prachya Pinkaew's new kick-'em-up is extreme action, extreme melodrama, and extremely hard to resist.
