Plot

Tony Vitayakul, a RTP detective in Thailand, subdues a group of human traffickers in pretext of "buying" a Thai girl. He collects information about the ship used to transport trafficked girls and its destination, where he learns that Viktor Dragovic, a Serbian mobster, will be there to receive the shipment.

Meanwhile, Nick Cassidy, a NPD detective in Newark, New Jersey, discovers that Dragovic is in New Jersey. Cassidy and his superior officer Captain Costello brief a group of police officers on Dragovic, revealing that Dragovic is a major player in human trafficking worldwide. As the ship carrying Dragovic's container approaches the US, Cassidy and his men prepare to intercept it at the dock. When the ship arrives, Dragovic discovers the trafficked women have died during the transport. The ship's captain is held responsible, tortured and shot in the head.

When the police move in, a shootout erupts in which Cassidy chases Dragovic and his youngest son Andre. Cassidy fatally shoots Andre in self-defense and Dragovic is arrested. While in custody, Dragovic arranges an attack on Cassidy's family in which Cassidy's wife and daughter are killed, but Cassidy survives despite gets shot in the back. Costello and Reed, an FBI agent, visits Cassidy in the hospital and tell him that Dragovic received bailed and had fled the US. After they leave, Cassidy steals clothing and an opiate drug before leaving the hospital unnoticed.

Cassidy gets his guns and goes to the restaurant of Dragovic's attorney. After forcing the attorney to reveal Dragovic's whereabouts, Cassidy shoots him and blows up the restaurant. In Cambodia, Senator Khat warns Dragovic that unless he leaves the country immediately, Dragovic will be arrested and extradited to the US. Dragovic blackmails the Senator into giving him two weeks to put his affairs in order and flee. Cassidy travels to Thailand in pursuit of Dragovic. Believing that Cassidy has experienced a nervous breakdown, the US authorities have sent Reed to detain him.

Vitayakul and his partner Nung are ordered to assist with the arrest. At Suvarnabhumi Airport, Cassidy runs away from the police. Reed, who has been bribed by Dragovic, kills Nung and blames Cassidy for the murder. Vitayakul pursues Cassidy through the streets, but is unable to capture him. Cassidy reaches a nightclub in Poipet. After torturing one of Dragovic's men, Cassidy discovers the location of Dragovic's current operations. Vitayakul and Reed arrive at the nightclub to arrest Cassidy. After fighting with Vitayakul, an injured Cassidy escapes again.

Meanwhile, Reed uses the timing of a call on Vitayakul's cell phone to discover an informant: Vitayakul's girlfriend Min. While Cassidy is attempting to locate Dragovic's illegitimate son Janko, who oversees Dragovic's human trafficking business in Southeast Asia, a shootout erupts between Cassidy and Janko's men. Janko flees the warehouse, but he is killed by his half-brothers Ivan and Goran Dragovic. Vitayakul learns the truth about his partner's death, where he fights and kills Reed instead. Janko reveals his father's location before dying.

The next day, Cassidy and Vitayakul team up and storm Dragovic's compound. Ivan is holding Min at gunpoint, but Vitayakul shoots him. Cassidy destroys a vehicle with a rocket launcher. As a result, Dragovic's helicopter leaves without him. During a shootout between the two detectives and Dragovic's men, Goran is killed in a hand-to-hand fight with Vitayakul. After that, Cassidy fights with Dragovic, ultimately stabbing him in the chest, despite Dragovic commandeering a second helicopter. Dragovic tells Cassidy that Sofia is alive and was sold into the human trafficking trade. Dragovic dies from his injuries, while Cassidy gets distraught about not learning Sofia's whereabouts.

In the aftermath, Cassidy bids farewell to Vitayakul and Min, where he gives them a picture of Sofia and asks them to keep it until he finds Sofia. Cassidy sets out in search of his daughter on his own.

Production

Development and writing

Lundgren in 2007, the year he devised Skin Trade.

Lundgren started researching human trafficking in 2005.[4] He claimed there were "20 million slaves in the world", and that human trafficking was a "$20 billion industry"; the world's "second largest" illegal trafficking enterprise (as of 2015).[5] He started developing Skin Trade in 2007, after reading a news report about a group of girls being smuggled into the United States from Mexico. The girls were left in a vehicle along the border; trapped inside and with no means of escape, they all died of heat stroke and suffocation. Lundgren, who had two young daughters at the time, felt the story of human trafficking "had to be told".[6] He empathized with the victims, saying: "these people are physically humiliated [and] psychologically abused to have no self worth, sort of like [how] I used to feel".[5]

Lundgren wrote the screenplay with Gabriel Dowrick and Steven Elder,[7][8] while John Hyams performed uncredited script revisions,[8] seven in total, frequently regarding the setting as Lundgren sought financing.[9] The original script was set in Russia. Lundgren even went as far as to personally scout for locations and actors, and to seek financing in Moscow, but it "didn't work out".[10] He changed the setting to Southeast Asia after meeting "someone" interested in financing the film.[10]

Casting

Originally, Lundgren planned on playing a supporting role, with a more famous actor in the lead.[11][12][13] He also considered directing the film,[3] but decided against it, as he desired to learn more about producing.[14] In 2013, Lundgren announced the casting of Tony Jaa, in the role of Tony Vitayakul; and Ekachai Uekrongtham as the director.[15] Lundgren chose Uekrongtham after being impressed with his film, Beautiful Boxer.[16] He contacted him through a mutual friend in Los Angeles, and in mid-2013, they arranged to meet in the city. While he had previously turned down scripts offered to him for international markets, Uekrongtham found Skin Trade "riveting". He said the script "[had] the potential to work as a character-driven piece while saying something about how we deal with scars, literal and otherwise".[1] Jaa, on the other hand, met with Lundgren through his manager and film agent.[17] He couldn't speak any English when cast, but claimed to have taken "intensive" lessons in preparation for his role; stating he is now "reasonably fluent" in "conversational" English.[18]

Tasya Teles was cast as Rosa Cassidy on Christmas Day, 2013. She was heading to Thailand for a holiday "after a year of hard work", and her agent phoned to tell her about the "perfect role"; even insisting on her having a "quick look" at the script. Once Teles realized Skin Trade was about human trafficking, she was "instantly hooked".[19]

On February 7, 2014, SC Films announced the casting of Michael Jai White, Ron Perlman, Peter Weller, Celina Jade, and Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa.[20] The film's co-producer, Craig Baumgarten, was White's and Weller's manager;[21][22] he secured them both roles in the film. Weller was the original choice to play Viktor Dragovic, but due to scheduling issues, the role went to Perlman instead.[22] Furthermore, Lundgren considered having White to co-star;[23] White only accepted the role of FBI agent Reed after finding the script "appealing".[24]

Filming

Suvarnabhumi Airport, pictured here in 2007.

Filming began on February 2, 2014, in Thailand.[20][25] Skin Trade was shot over 50 days: 43 filming in Thailand, and four filming in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.[11] In Thailand, filming locations included: Suvarnabhumi Airport, the Min Buri District, the Siam Kempinski Hotel, a rice mill, a leather-bleaching factory, and a century-old mansion.[1][16] Filming was briefly disrupted by public protests relating to the Thai political crisis. To avoid any further interference, the cast and crew had to travel early to get through the traffic and to the set on time.[26] Most of the film was shot on location, but some scenes were filmed at Baanrig Studios.[1] Skin Trade was the first film to be shot in English by an organization based in Asia (outside of Hong Kong) for an international theatrical release.[18]

Uekrongtham arranged "a few lunches and dinners" between Lundgren and his on-screen family (Tasya Teles and Chloe Babcook), so they could bond "on a personal level" before filming scenes together.[26] Babcook spent a week and a half filming her scenes in Bangkok, followed by a few days of filming in Vancouver.[27]

The "heavily choreographed" fight scene between Lundgren and Jaa was planned over "a month or two".[10] It was rehearsed for two weeks and took a further week to film. Due to Lundgren's role as co-producer, the cast had a lot of freedom to improvise their scenes.[10] Jaa filmed his fight scenes without using wirework or CGI. He felt this would give his character "more depth" and allow him to better display his acting abilities.[28] Jaa also performed all of his own stunts.[16] Lundgren stated he was "very impressed" by Jaa's acting and fighting abilities. In his opinion, the majority of people wouldn't be able to perform Jaa's stunts without using wirework.[28]

"In a less sophisticated movie they'll just fight forever, on this rooftop, that rooftop, the street, on the bus - I mean, it's okay to do that in a comedy. But in a real fight? That's why the Rocky movies are great: there's a story within the fights. Who wins, who's on top at the beginning, and then this changes, and then that one gets injured and the other one takes over; there's a beginning, middle, and an end to every fight. That's what you need. You need to figure that out before you throw the moves in there."

— Lundgren discussing the choreography in 2015.[10]

According to White, his fight scenes with Jaa were in "large part" choreographed ten minutes before filming.[29] On the contrary, Jaa described it as something they were practicing "right up until the shoot". He recalled that while they were rehearsing the sequences and moves together "quite extensively" for a "number of days", they didn't rehearse them on the film set.[30] The fight was filmed in three takes.[31]

Effects

Explosions were shot at Baanrig Studios,[1] by the special effects team that had worked on The Expendables.[16]

Post-production

According to Lundgren, the fact that "a lot of" editors worked on the film resulted in him not having "all the control [he] wanted" over the final product. As co-producer of the film, Lundgren had assumed he would have been more involved in the editing process.[14]

Critical response

Rotten Tomatoes reports that 25 percent of critics gave a positive review, the "average" rating being 4.8 out of 10.[54] On Metacritic, the film has a score of 39 out of 100, also indicating "generally unfavorable" reviews.[55]

Martin Tsai of LA Times wrote "If bare-knuckle fights are what you seek, director Ekachai Uekrongtham certainly delivers, but the film scarcely scratches the surface of the horrors of human trafficking."[58] Nick Schager of Variety wrote "Dolph Lundgren and Tony Jaa star in this tedious, formulaic actioner."[57] Ignatiy Vishnevetsky of A.V. Club praised the action sequences, but criticized it as a formulaic actioner.[56]

"Offering literally nothing original, Skin Trade is just a bargain bin action vehicle for an aging star."

— Adam DiLeo, of IGN Movies (2015).[59]

Chuck Bowen of Slant Magazine heavily criticized the film and wrote "There’s no beauty to this film, little rhythm, none of the physical grace that action-film fans crave even if they don’t know they do."[60] Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter wrote "The screenplay is far more complicated than it needed to be, featuring enough plot twists and character reversals to fuel a dozen thrillers, but it hardly matters, since the film’s main impetus is to provide a nonstop series of action sequences featuring its formidable leads."[61]

Scott Tobias of The Dissolve gave 2.5/5 stars and wrote "Skin Trade is a throwback to the one-man-army actioners of the ’80s, sprinkled with updated stats on human trafficking. If the film happens to raise awareness, then that’s more bonus than objective."[62] Simon Abrams of Rogerebert gave 3/5 stars and wrote "Skin Trade is best enjoyed if you take its most blissfully absurd qualities in stride with its most appreciably well-crafted assets [action sequences]."[63] Eoin Friel of The Action Elite gave 4/5 stars and wrote "Skin Trade isn’t the most original movie ever but it was massively entertaining with some spectacular action and a stellar cast that is a must-see for action fans."[64]

Potential sequel

Teles said she would be open to returning for a sequel;[65] she feels the film was "set [...] up very nicely for" one, and claims "[e]verybody's wondering" if there will be a follow-up.[66] On the possibility of a sequel, Lundgren said: "I didn't consider [Skin Trade] as a franchise, but when I was over there [in Thailand], I started thinking, 'How would I do this different? How would I stay close to the subject matter?' Organ trafficking is quite big as well, so I thought that could be interesting. We could follow up with some kind of other trade."[67]
