Bulletproof Monk

This is something that actors of calibre of Fat and Roden really don’t need. I felt genuinely sorry for them throughout this boring, uninteresting, horribly shot film with cheap effects and awfully childish humour. (25/04/2005)

Viewers who are more positively inclined towards the "made in Hong Kong" brand probably won't be able to forgive Chow Yun-Fat for the way he was willing to spill it over them, but I just don't send lowly positive action spectacles reluctantly. Excellent Scott, hints of bullet time, verbal and literal shootouts, and the feeling that bad ratings mainly stem from the fact that everyone used to read Premiere, which blasted "Munich" as an unwatchable B-movie. More than ten years after its premiere, Kar and co. are growing as a pure guilty pleasure. (01/04/2006)

It could have been a solid action flick with a weak story, it could have been one of those “smart” action films, and it could have easily been an easygoing B-movie, but the only word that comes to my mind after it ended is: nonsense. Glaring CGI Matrix-like visual effects, bad editing, confusing camera work. The acting is average, yet with great potential. (19/03/2005)
