Muay Thai. The world’s favorite martial art and the most dangerous sport. ‘5th Round’ follows the story of four boxers at different stages of their life. What they all have in common is that that their whole lives have been dedicated to Muay Thai. They can fight for their area, but they can’t choose their destiny. Born into poverty, boxing is their only means of earning a living, and if they are to find a better life, they must fight right though to the very last round.

It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
