Pirates Of Langkasuka is Thailand's biggest ever cinematographic adventure. An epic tale based on a true story of passion, subterfuge, sorcery and conspiracy. In 1600 A.D. Queen Hijau of Langkasuka felt the heat of internal conflict when a rogue prince conspired with a band of ruthless pirates to incite rebellion. They plotted a scheme to high-jack a number of high caliber cannons from Dutch vessel. The secret plot fails spectacularly as the ship, along with its crew and weapons sink into the Abyss after an almighty explosion. The Queen has to come up with a plan to defeat the merciless pirates and prepare herself for a historic sea battle that will be recalled for centuries.

Brilliantly Dumb

By Billy B Badger from Edinburgh , 15 Nov 2010

[Highly rated reviewer]

The main guy in this is a sort of cross between Black Bolt and Aquaman. The power of fish erupting in a sort of sonic boom. Mental. The story isn't something you want to give too much thought to but that said it is far from dreadful. Pirates, Ninjas, a sort of beardy Yoda, Warrior Princesses, Black Bolt/Aquaman. What's not to like? Oh sorry. Forgot. Subtitles. The illiterate amongst you should avoid it so we are spared your idiotic whine about 'if a'd wantid ta reed adve gotu book'. Somehow doubt if a book would be much use to you lot unless you have a table with a wobbly leg.

Really bad

By w_kitsch (4 reviews) , 03 Nov 2012

I couldn't manage to watch even a quarter of this. No character, little action, slender plot, nul points! Not one that I would recommend...

Too much magic

By GwydionM (57 reviews) from Peterborough , 19 Mar 2011

I'd hoped this was going to be a fairly realistic historic drama. Instead it was all about individual combat by people with rather improbably magic powers. Disappointing.
