How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A lean revenge thriller that channels raw anger into visceral kickboxing showdowns, where a disabled man's brother fights to restore honor in the Thai boxing rings. Unapologetically steeped in 80s action thrills and sibling loyalty tested by catastrophic violence.
