Bulletproof Monk

In this action-packed comedy, a mysterious Tibetan monk (Chow Yun-fat) tasked with protecting an ancient scroll with the power to grant its owner immense power, must find a worthy successor. He finds an unlikely candidate in a young pickpocket (Seann William Scott) and trains him in martial arts and the ways of zen Buddhism. Together they must face off against a ruthless Nazi leader (Karel Roden) and his granddaughter (Victoria Smurfit) who seek to use the scroll's power for their own gain. With the help of some colorful characters, including a roguish young woman (Jaime King), they embark on a wild adventure filled with acrobatic fight scenes, high-flying stunts and plenty of laughs. Can the unlikely hero protect the scroll and unlock its secrets before it falls into the wrong hands?
