The tremendous charisma of Chow Yun-fat anchors this entertaining comic-book romp. Bulletproof Monk centers around a monk with no name (Chow) dedicated to protecting a sacred scroll that can give world-manipulating power to anyone who reads it. A hidden Nazi has been pursuing the scroll for 60 years and has finally caught up with the monk in present-day New York City; meanwhile, the monk suspects he may have found a disciple in a petty thief (Seann William Scott, Dude, Where's My Car?, American Pie) who's learned kung fu from watching double-feature chopsocky flicks. Don't let the presence of Chow Yun-fat lead you to expect much substance--this doesn't have the emotional scope of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon or the visual panache of Hard-Boiled. But Bulletproof Monk is a cheerful, tightly edited, unpretentious action flick with flashes of humor, good for a mindless evening's entertainment. Also featuring Jaime (a.k.a. James) King (Blow). --Bret Fetzer

4 out of 5 stars And the lesson is, be happy with what you have, you can always get a hotdog...Good action movie.......2006-10-24

Again, Seeing this with low expectations leaves one open to complete suprise when the movie isn't actually bad. This is a movie about a tibetan monk that is sworn to protect a secret magical scroll that hold unlimited power. Unfortunately, Those darn Nazis are after its power, and he spends 60 years protecting it from a Mad holdout Nazi. Finally, the battle spills over to the streets of modern new york, where the the Monk, Chow Yun-Fat, crosses trail with the young Pick pocket Kar, Shawn Willam Scott. Well, as one thing leads to another, Kar finds himself caught in this monks Battle, and has to figure out who he is. Yes, their are some great fight scenes in this movie, as well as a love story. Check this movie out, Its good entertainment. At least rent it, but not a bad movie to get for the collection either.

3 out of 5 stars typical of its genre.......2006-09-16

I enjoyed it more than most movies of this type. Chow Yun-Fat and Seann William Scott are very good. Just looking at Scott, you don't expect him to be as well built as he is. The special features are good.

    Description

    Chow Yun-Fat (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) and Seann William Scott (the American Pie films) star in this heart-pumping action-adventure that bristles with "acrobatic battles [and] solid visual effects" (The Hollywood Reporter)! For 60 years, a mysterious monk has protected an ancient scroll that holds the key to unlimited power. But when a streetwise punk named Kar saves him from capture, the monk thinks he's found a replacement protector for the scroll. Now Kar, under the tutelage of the monk, must unleash his potential as one gravity-defying, sword-wielding,butt-kicking warrior to save the world from the scroll's most avid pursuer.
