Ned Kelly is the motor-bike-riding, garbage-can-armoured, ATM-robbing Australian outlaw who accidentally becomes a Hollywood movie star. Robin Hood-style, Ned steals from corrupt foreign banks and redeposits the money in the bank accounts of the poor. But the evil monarchist banker Sir John fights back, selling the Kelly Gang's tribal home, Reckless Island, as a Japanese tourist resort. Believing everything he sees in Hollywood movies, Ned assumes that for an outlaw, America is the land of opportunity and sets off to rob the money to buy back Reckless Island. Kelly's ability to shoot a fly in mid-flight thrusts him to movie stardom as the 'Christian Cowboy' - a bible-bashing, gun-toting vigilante who cleans up Las Vegas and falls in love with a beautiful nun. His love affair with actress Robin Banks is thrown into crisis when Sir John forecloses on Ned's Hollywood studio, imprisons his family, beats up his dog and prepares to tow Reckless Island to Japan.
