Jeeja Yanin in Chocolate (2008).
another of my fave asian action stars, if you haven't watched any of JiJa's movies you should seriously check her out… she pays homage to stars such as jackie chan, bruce lee and there's even a scene she pays homage to tony jaa…
chocolate has some great fights and really shows off what JiJa is capable of.
raging phoenix is a mix of styles ranging from Muay Thai, taekwondo, chinese drunken boxing and also a little hip hop dancing.
I am curling up with chocolate and Chocolate. Because sometimes the only cure for what ails you is watching Jeeja Yanin fuck some people’s shit up.
