Monk in a bad habit

This story, such as it is, comes from a comic-strip but has not been given sufficient work to enlist our full attention. It is a truly dreadful film, full of awful moments and some pretty forgettable acting.

Bulletproof Monk

Director: Paul Hunter

Cast: Chow Yun-Fat, Seann William Scott, Jaime King, Victoria Smurfit

Cert: 15.

We have here, in what is an awful film, a touch of the scrolls.

Back in the days of Hitler and the Nazis the Germans sent one of their top men to Tibet to grab a valuable scroll off a monk. The monk escaped and the top man has devoted his life to finding him and, finally, getting his hands on the document, the better to rule the world.

The evil Nazi is assisted by his equally-evil grand-daughter (played by Irish beauty Smurfit) who is along to see what power she might gain by having the scroll.

Star Rating: 0/5.
