Synopsis
The Mad Monk (1993) is a Hong Kong fantasy comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Stephen Chow plays Lohan, a celestial warrior who has spent too long pranking the gods — and finally pushed the Jade Emperor past his limit. The sentence handed down is surprisingly precise.
Lohan has two and a half days to change the fates of three people: a prostitute, a beggar, and a criminal. Karma has locked each of them into the same roles across nine reincarnations, and he needs to break that. He has no magic powers on Earth. Several of the gods he wronged show up specifically to make sure he fails. Director Johnnie To builds the whole film from celestial bureaucracy and human luck, stacking one absurd complication on the next until the story goes somewhere you wouldn't have guessed.
