    The entire movie was ruined by God-awful dubbing. There was no audio choice to watch the movie in the original language with English subtitles. The actors doing the voices were so utterly devoid of acting skill, that it turned the movie into a cartoon. It’s really sad, because the martial arts action deserve some praise. Apple! Give us the choice to watch movies in their original language! If you wanna watch it correctly, you will have to rent it on Amazon prime. It’s the same price that they do it correctly.
  • Jeeja Yanin is awesome

    Some viewers don’t realize the fight scenes and stunts in this movie are real with participants ending up with real injuries. This type of movie making may not last long, so enjoy this gem while you can. Get away from your Americanized view of films and understand that this is a Thai movie. Cheesy humor and great action go together. This is a masterpiece. I have the DVD version, so I can watch it in Thai with subtitles.
  • More like milk chocolate.

    This is one of my top favorite movies. Just awesome all around. To the idiot that gave this movie 1 star, that's between you and iTunes, don't take it out on this movie.

    However the crappy version iTunes has with a corny English dub really ruins the experience.

    I was really disappointed in the dub over :( not only was it horribly lagged, some of it just did not seem to fit the story line. Other than that, this movie was very inspirational and moving.
  • Not great

    10 people can watch the same film and come away with 10 different impressions. For me, Chocolate is a rare gem. As many reviewers noted, dubbing is not the way to go. Find the subtitled version and you'll enjoy it even more. Some of the fights were lack luster. But overall her form and style were enjoyable to watch. It became obvious she has real-world skills and wonderful agility. I'll watch this one again.
  • Great movie!!!

    Not really my favorite genre of movies, but this movie was very entertaining. My husband and I really enjoyed watching every second of it!
