Ong-Bak

In this movie a man name Ting lives in a peaceful village in Thailand.  Ting was raised by monks, who taught him Muay Thai, but forbids him to use it in combat.  One day a gang of people stole a sacred Buddha statuette called Ong-Bak and is planning to sell it for exorbitant profits.  Ting is chosen to bring back Ong-Bak from Bangkok.  This movie has great martial arts moves which makes you wonder if you might want to try Muay Thai out because of all the combat that Ting does to defend himself.
