Except that Fa Ge is too ordinary

"Bulletproof Monk" is an action science fiction film directed by Paul Hunter, adapted from the comic of the same name, starring Chow Yun-fat, Jamie King, Sean William Scott and others. It tells the story of a tantric monk who was responsible for protecting the ancient mysterious scrolls and how to find a successor.

For Fa Ge and foreign handsome boy, I reluctantly gave a three-star.
There is no outstanding martial arts design, no surprising plot turning, and of course no unique interpretation of human nature, lifelike details of life, the whole film whizzes through mediocrity.
The above is the evaluation given by the Beijing Youth Daily. I think it is appropriate, very objective, and my impression.
The overall film doesn't feel like the type I like.

Bulletproof Monk quotes

  • Monk With No Name: Water which is too pure has no fish.

  • Master Monk: You defeated an army of enemies while a flock of crane circled above. You battled for love in the palace of jade. You freed brothers you never knew with a family you never had.
