Summary
Add a SummaryThere are people in Hollywood whose names you don't know, even though they make far more money than you will ever see. These people come up with ideas like: "How about we make a movie that puts one of the world's greatest martial arts stars together with Stifler! Then Stifler can do crazy kung-fu and the other guy can do comedy! It's perfect!" Read more at http://torontoist.com/2011/05/reel_toronto_bulletproof_monk.php

Quotes
Add a QuoteMonk With No Name: An enlightened man would offer a weary traveler a bed for the night, and invite him to share a quiet conversation over a bowl of Cocoa Puffs.
Monk With No Name: Why do hot dogs come in packages of ten, but hot dog buns only come in packages of just eight? Kar: What the hell is that?
Kar: So, I figured it out, why hot dogs come in packages of ten and hot dog buns come in packages of eight. See, the thing is, life doesn't always work out according to plan so be happy with what you've got, because you can always get a hot dog.
Monk With No Name: It's not about anger - it's about peace. It's not about power - it's about grace. It's not about knowing your enemy - it's about knowing yourself.

Add a CommentPretty good!! In this high-flying butt-kicking comedy-action flick featuring a monk who presumably doesn't have a name joins forces with a low-level street punk Kar (Sean William Scott) as they prevent a scroll that holds unlimited power being manipulated by their rival villains.
I really Enjoyed this movie. Great fight scenes, good script, and surprisingly good acting. Worth watching, a wonderful marshall arts movie.
