Chocolate Summary
MPAA Rating: R
Director: Prachya Pinkaew
Genres: Action
Rating:
A kickboxing hero with a difference arises in this action saga from Thailand. Japanese mobster Masashi (Hiroshi_Abe) and his Thai partner and girlfriend, Zin (Ammara_Siripong), narrowly escape death at the hands of underworld boss Number 8 (Pongpat_Wachirabunjong) and his bodyguard Priscilla (Sirimongkol_Iamthuam), but the scuffle has unexpected consequences -- Masashi's superiors order him to return to Japan, and Zin finds she's pregnant with his child. Zin raises their daughter, Zen (Yanin_Vismitananda), on her own and discovers she's autistic; one of the few things that helps bring Zen out of her inner world is chocolate, and in time the girl develops a remarkable skill in the martial arts. When Zin is diagnosed with cancer, the family cannot afford the chemotherapy that could save her life until her friend Moom (Taphon_Phopwandee) comes up with a plan -- plenty of people still owe Zin money from her days as an outlaw, and with Zen as a candy-fueled enforcer, he might be able to get them to pay up and raise the funds for Zin's medical bills. Chokgohlaet (aka Chocolate) was directed by Prachya_Pinkaew, who previously made several pictures starring Thai martial arts master Tony_Jaa. Mark Deming, Rovi
