BULLETPROOF MONK
DIRECTOR: Paul Hunter
(PLAYES) STARRING: Fat-Yun Chow, man with no name but the monk Sean William/ Kar Jamie King/ Jade Karek Roden/ Strucker Victoria Smurfit/ Nina Marcus j Pirae/ Mr Funtastic
This film is a PG certificate
This was a watchable film and had only a small amount of action in it . It begins of with chow yun fat as a monk who is given a scroll to him by another monk to protect and to make sure it does not get in to the hands of a nazi german.
Chow who playes the monk deadicates his life to look after the scroll ,60 years pass and the monk who does not age is on the run as the nazi german who has aged is after the scroll with the help of his grandaughter whos also a nasty piece of work.
The scoll is a item that has manipulating powers that can give any person long life that reads the writting of it and more .
By chance chow stumbles across Kar ( Sean William Scott) who plays a pick pockter who steels the scroll of the monk and trys to sell it when he gets in a fight , kar he helped by a lady called Jade who he falls for . Chow gets the scroll back but is still on the run from the nazi who is getting closer to him , so close that they find out where Kar live and destroy the place. The nazi gets his hand on the scroll and trys to read it but the clever monk has written half on his body and half in his mind.
The scroll gets passed down to another good person to protect it when the nazi man is killed,and chow the monk returnes to looking old. you can proble guess who it gets pass down to .
This film was a ok movie ,but for some reason i thought that any film that had chow yun fat would have alot of action. His performance was great so where the other actors but this is the sort of film once or twice is enough times to watch this film.
