Bulletproof Monk

The Monk (Chow Yun-Fat) is a Zen martial arts master whose duty has been to protect a powerful ancient scroll. Faced with finding the scroll's next guardian, the Monk's quest brings him to New York City where - to his disbelief - it appears his successor is a smart-mouthed pickpocket named Kar.

A charming, street-wise wild card, Kar (Seann William Scott) enjoys his life of no responsibility. As the Monk instructs Kar, the unlikely duo become partners in protecting the scroll from a power-monger who's been chasing it for sixty years.

Amidst high-flying acrobatics and martial arts action, this comical odd couple has to work together to keep the scroll - and mankind - safe.

What the critics are saying:

"Squarely aimed at prepubescent boys, Bulletproof Monk panders to every conceivable teenage male fantasy..."

"Bulletproof Monk won't offer any enlightenment, but thanks to Chow Yun-Fat, it isn't a total waste of time."
- Kit Bowen, Hollywood.com

"...this witless action comedy reimagines The Karate Kid with more gadgets and gizmos."
