For sixty years there has been a monastary keeping safe a sacred scroll, then when the sixty years is up a new keeper is found this happens to be a monk with no name
he is just called monk. On the day he is to recieve the powers to keep him young and
alive until the sixyty years are up and he has found the next keeper of the scroll.
Out side the temple there are nazis waiting to have the scroll for the power they
can use to destroy the world to ther ends.,the rest of the monkes stand in the way of
the door so they cannot enter,they are all massacred, and the transfer is done the monk
comes out and fights the rest especially one certaincaptain who wants use the power
for himself,they fight he ends up shooting the monk and he falls down a deep cravice.
Now we are sixty years later and the monk is in new york,what he does not is
arch enemy is also there with his daughter,he is an old man in a chair and determined.
The monk is watching a young lad called kar whom he thinks could have what he
calls potential, the problem being he is a street kid who likes to pick pocket., as
things get started the young kar saves the monk from the germans men. So seeing
him in a slightly different light,and he has fullfilled two of the prophecies to be the
scroll keeper and there are only three.
they go there seperate ways so kar thinks and get himself into another turf fight and
the monk watches with intrepidation,then a girl helps him out her name jade and before
he leaves he takes he necklace,just so he has to see her again.
Monk finds out kar lives in the golden palace theatre that shows old martial atrs films
that is where he has been training, so he decides to give him some simlpe help.
He decides he must give jade her necklace back as he really likes her, the germans of
course drug monk and get him out leaving kar and jade to find him,jade knows where
he is being kept,but i will leave that for you to see as there is alot more to jade than
meets the eye.
The captain in the mean time has started to decipher the scroll but does not have the
last peace as that is memorised and monk will not give it up,he get loose and the
captain is getting younger but needs the rest of the scroll. With all the action jade put
missy out kar is just about out for the count and monk is fighting a man who is young
then kar comes back and turns the fight for the good,all done now it is time to hand the
scroll to the next keeper,who happens to be kar and jade as a couple he gives them
the power for sixty years keeping them together for sixty years partners in life

For all those people who are comic mad this was a comic so you might see more they
are very hard to find, but now there is a film aswell probably worth something.
i would not have said this was my type,but i really enjoyed it probably because of chow
yun fat.
good family film .....
