    Watched Bulletproof Monk (2003) Very okay movie. I think what it gets right as a martial arts adventure is the heightened fighting. Just a little flashy, a little magic in the right places, never too much. And the fights are pretty good. The mild sci-fi element doesn't feel right, though.

    @Starcade I ❤️ the #DarkTower (2017). It's one of those sci-fi or fantasy based films, in which a kid or younger person is cast as a hero or cohort, that just appeals to me, much like: #EndersGame (2013) #TheLastAirBender (2011) #SorcerersApprentice (2010) #BulletProofMonk (2003) #TheForbiddenKingdom (2008) None of which are great movies from a film making POV but are movies that I find very entertaining nonetheless.

    Right now, I'm watching Bulletproof Monk. Which, ofc, starts out with shitty Nazis. So I'm starting to sense a pattern of lessons to be learned. This movie is stereotype-laden and silly, but I love it all the same. I hate that it reminds me of my ex, though.

    Thought I'd start them with "Lost Horizon" (1937 version), proceed to "Bulletproof Monk", then "The Sky Captain, World of Tomorrow" for a rip roaring close to American film making.

    I wonder if Bulletproof Monk got a tie in video game, that was getting popular at the time. I've said it before but I unabashedly love that movie, even if the fighting is a bit shitly weeblful. But then, it itself is only an adaptation of a comic, so why not a video game from the comic too? :)

    The debut work of UK-based Mucky Foot Productions of the later Startopia and Blade II. They didn't last while six of their projects got canned, among them an actual sequel and movie licensed games based on Bulletproof Monk and The Punisher (which ended up developed by Volition of Saints Row fame).

    "Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings" got a lot of attention for being the first Hollywood movie based on a comic book where the hero is Chinese, but too many people seem to be forgetting Chow Yun-Fat as the titular Bulletproof Monk (a 2003 movie).

    I also don’t see this with completely rose tinted glasses either - I think a lot of especially HK stars were basically given roles in shit films as band wagon jump - I’m not going to pretend Bulletproof Monk was a good movie but it’s interesting to see how much more closed off Hollywood seems to be

    Finished The Last Dragon (1985). An absolute absurd delight of 80's culture. It's interesting that American send-ups of kung fu cinema are so inconsistent.... #TheLastDragon : 4/5 #BigTroubleinLittleChina : 5/5 #KungPowEntertheFist: 1.5/5 #BulletProofMonk 3/5 (but I'm overdue for a rewatch. I liked it years ago but my opinion may have changed.)

  • John Chard @John ChardTMDB reviews · Jun 27, 2014

    Chop Schlockery. Chow Yun-Fat and Sean William Scott buddy up to retrieve an ancient scroll from baddies, chop sockery does follow. That’s pretty much it really, the two characters obviously poles apart, but coming together as one in a series of action scenes that are both laughable and enjoyable because of the former. The script is poor, with much of the dialogue of the tripe delivery kind, and in truth Yun-Fat is wasted in a thankless role. Story throws in a Nazi baddie, a girl on girl scrap…
