This is brainless action at its very finest. The settings and scenarios change frequently, thereby avoiding any feel of repetition or monotony. Virtually all of the remaining 50 minutes is devoted to high quality choreography and bone-crunching maneuvers. Once the 30 minute mark arrives, however, the viewer is treated to one of the most amazing displays of asskicking by a female protagonist in the history of action cinema.

This movie has a mediocre script, and requires some patience from the viewer to slug through the early moments.
An autistic girl with martial arts skill attempts to collect on the debts of her sick mother. With that said, Chocolate is one of the best examples of an action movie that has such extraordinary fight sequences that they easily overpower any deficiencies in the script. This is no different from fans of art-house dramas who can overlook minimal content if the film can portray everyday life in interesting ways.
A true fan of action movies has the ability to overlook some flaws in film-making (e.g., script, acting, character development, etc.) if the action sequences are exceptional enough to make up for them. Chocolate is the perfect "acid test" to determine who are fans of action movies and who are not. Note: Check me out as the "Asian Movie Enthusiast" on YouTube, where I review tons of Asian movies.

The original full version that included these scenes has not been released anywhere in Thailand. Eventually not only were the split screen scenes removed, but any scenes that involved Zen performing moves that too closely resembled fight sequences from Bruce Lee or Jackie Chan movies were all cut as well. The warehouse scene was shot in a similar fashion, but this time it showed a split screen of Zen imitating Jackie Chan, wherein she would do her interpretation of a Jackie Chan fight routine. It showed a clip of Bruce Lee doing his fight moves at the same time as Zen was mimicking Bruce Lee's moves. The ice factory scene was originally shot as a split screen of Zen imitating the exact same moves she had seen Bruce Lee do in a fight scene from the movie Tang shan da xiong (1971). These licensing problems also caused other scenes to be removed from the original movie. The film originally included Zen watching scenes from Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan movies (in addition to Tony Jaa), but these scenes were eventually cut due to licensing problems.
