Billed as Cambodia’s first ever blockbuster, Sbek Gong promises CG fireworks and a star-studded cast of the country’s top actors. Names like Nhem Sokun, Un Sethea and Nhem Sokun may mean little to us, but this film, written and directed by Pol Vibo, is big business across the border, opening to sell-out crowds around the country. As one of the few Cambodian films to screen in Thailand, our expectations were high (if a little hesitant). But as the opening sequence alone demonstrates, this is a movie that’s unsure whether it’s an action-comedy, fantasy or even a martial arts flick.
