Sema The Warrior of Ayodhaya 2003 aka Khunsuk
Sema The Warrior of Ayodhaya
Sema The Warrior of Ayodhaya 2003 - adventure drama martial arts epic
This is another one of those "war against the Burmese" epics, the Thai movie industry loves making. Similar to the way Hollywood feels about making movies on how the US won WW2. (Well, they like to think they did!)
Not having a search engine on this site, I am not sure whether this movie is already on site, but the Forum does have a search engine, and suggests not.
However, I am featuring this movie because this is the US version and and it is on special from HKflix in the US.
Synopsis -
Thai director Tanit Jitnukul (BANG RAJAN) crafts a lush historical epic infused with the warrior tradition of his native land in the romantic action melodrama SEMA: THE WARRIOR OF AYODHAYA.
The eponymous hero (Voravit Kaewpand) is a poor boy who dreams of becoming a royal fighter and finally gets his chance when King Naraesuan (Jaran Ngamdee) appoints him to the prestigious elephant guard.
But Sema’s military success sparks jealousy in his rival Moo Khan (Sririwat Chevasud)–especially when the lower-class soldier falls in love with Moo Khan’s aristocratic fiance, Princess Rayrai (Sawinee Pookaroon)–sparking an intense round of competition marked by hard hitting swordplay action sequences.

Mid Road Gang 2007
This movie is mentioned on the Net as "animated", - but it isn't animated, - featuring the voices of well known entertainment personalities. Rated for families/children.
Synopsis -
Makham becomes the involuntary leader of six stray dogs of various ages and genetic cocktails: Uncle Kafe, Keng, Piak, Pikul and Sexy, the miniature French poodle.
The dogs are a pretty tight team, scratching out a living on the mean streets of Bangkok.
Catastrophe strikes, however, when the slum they call home is razed to build a supermarket.
Homeless, drifting and hungry, the friends are hounded all over town by the dreaded dog catchers.
After Uncle Kafe is hurt by a speeding motorcycle, Makham realizes that his canine family needs to find a permanent safe harbor.
Makham has heard a rumor he wants to believe is true, - that there exists a haven for canines, where every pooch and puppy has a bed and never goes hungry; a place that some call "Dogtopia."
There’s only one problem: this refuge lies on the other side of a busy ten-lane superhighway. (Courtesy Movie.com)
Comprehensive review (none on the Net) However a snippet from Wise Kwai, who said in a brief review of a batch of movies, "Worth mentioning out of this batch, is Mid Road Gang, the Thai talk dog film, which I saw and enjoyed".
