Adventures of the Iron Pussy

The first Thai movie I'd ever seen. Atrocious image quality due to a very low budget. An action comedy; expected more action, turned out to be more of a comedy, and a bit of a musical. Nice soundtrack. Lots of great lines, from Buddha's sound advice to the protagonist "be focused, be good, and always exercise" to one character's "who is this girl so smartly dressed for the occasion?" when a woman on huge heels shows up to save the day.

Noticed that a lot of people in the audience do not seem to understand the conventions of a musical and start to laugh when characters start singing to each other. As opposed to not laughing when soundtrack music starts playing out of nowhere without having any in-game sourse of music.
