bulletproof monk is jam packed with chinese style kung fu, yet a bit dissapointing conversations from Chow Yun Fat
Based on the very underground comic book, Chow is the immortal Tibetan monk that needs to protect the scroll. the first half of the movie was rather thrilling with good computer generated animation etc.
but the second half is rather repeating itself and it is rather boring.
I would buy and keep this for a rainy day and when there's nothing else to do . watch it.
A monk. A punk. A chick. In a kick-ass flick. this says it all...
Seann William Scott is funny as usual...so if all things failed to amuse you. you would find yourself smilling when movie is over
Kung pow enter the fist......
not a bad movie, however, i would't say it is an interesting one.
