Bulletproof Monk (2003)
This movie is quite better than your average martial-arts film. It's not perfect, and it has flaws, yes. That's why I give it not three, not five, but four stars. True, Chow Yun Fat is just below Jackie Chan or Jet Li; but thank God he's well above Steven Seagal or Jean-Claude Van Damme. Even though the lead characters are a bit wooden, it's all a part of the story, and plenty of self-deprecating and situational humor leaks through owing to their synergy. This is a fun film to watch, even if the Nazis are dopier (but just as sinister) than in any Indiana Jones movie. Four stars.
