Chocolate, The Movie



Chocolate was really a good action movie! The movie starts with a female Thai gangster, Zin, falling in love with a rival Japanese Yakuza gangster, Masashi. Zin and Masashi secretly marry like Romeo & Juliet but have to separate. Zin gives birth to their autistic but exceptional daughter, Zen. As Zen gets older, Zin decides to tell Masashi about their daughter by writing him a letter. The Thai boss finds out that Zin is in contact with Masashi and is furious. He visits Zin and cuts off one of her toes to remind her that she is forbidden from having anything to do with Masashi.

Zin falls ill with cancer and does not have the money to pay for chemotherapy treatments. Zen and an adopted friend, Moom attempt to make the money needed to pay for medicine by having people throw balls at Zen as a street performance act. Zen is also now older with finely tuned martial arts skills she learned from living next door to a muay thai gym, playing video games, and watching martial arts movies.


Zen uses her martial arts skills to fight and collect debts owed her mom. She almost meets her match when she faces, a capoeira boy who has Tourette´s Syndrome. Zen quickly adapts and learns his fighting style and defeats him.

Zen's father, Masashi, eventually makes it to the battle with the Thai gangsters, but while he and Zin are fighting them off, Zin was mortally wounded. Angered by what has happened, Zen continues to battle through, until she catches up with the Thai boss and throws him off the third story of a building to his death.

Masashi reunites and comforts his long lost daughter and raises her away from the life of crime.
