Bangkok Dangerous

Hitman Joe (Nicolas Cage) goes to Bangkok on an assignment to kill four people. He hires pickpocket Kong (Shahkrit Yamnarm) as his assistant and meets a beautiful deaf-mute girl along the way.
Joe is given the contract by Bangkok gangsters who communicate with Joe through Kong and a dancer who becomes romantically involved with Kong.
Joe breaks his own rule of not getting involved with people on his missions and takes Kong under his wing because he sees Kong as a younger version of himself. Kong regularly comments on, and asks about Joe's victims being bad people; this awakens Joe's conscience. Joe takes out three 'bad men' who are, as Joe says to Kong, "bad for somebody". In the third killing, Kong assists Joe and the kill does not go as planned, with the target nearly getting away before Joe catches him and shoots him after a chase in front of many shocked onlookers. ~bla bla...

Not my favourite movie.. wanna know why? Coz it's sad ending..
I even fall a sleep when I watched this.. but for those who loves Mr. Cage, it's worth to spend 1.5 hours...
