Leave your thoughts about Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back.
| Film Journal InternationalDaniel EaganBlockbuster sequel to Stephen Chow's Conquering the Demons has more action than comedy. |
| RogerEbert.comScout TafoyaThe result is both a madcap success on its own bizarre terms and an informative distillation of each auteur's sensibility. |
| MUBISean GilmanThis tension between tradition and subversion results in a curiously unstable film; easy enough to watch in the moment, but unnaturally slippery in meaning. |
| Village VoiceSimon AbramsWu and Lin have great chemistry, but only because Chow was smart enough to reimagine Journey to the West as a rare character-driven big-budget action-adventure — the kind of thing Americans might love if they knew it existed. |
| The A.V. ClubJesse HassengerIf anything, Demons Strike Back is an even zanier and more kid-friendly affair than the Chow original. Yet without Chow’s unique strain of silliness, it also feels louder and more antic while covering less ground. |
| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferMildly entertaining with dazzling visual spectacle, but more silly, exhausting and outrageous rather than fun or funny. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThe kid friendly comical martial arts film draws only a smattering of laughs. |
| The Age (Australia)Jake WilsonThis time round, though, there's more high-spirited whimsy than laugh-out-loud humour. |
| South China Morning PostEdmund LeeWhile [the film] is never less than watchable, it's hard to shake the impression that Tsui [Hark] has partly ditched - or maybe failed to replicate - [Stephen] Chow's irreverent sense of humour. |
| The Hollywood ReporterClarence TsuiThe Demon Strikes Back soldiers loudly along, alternating between high-octane, digitally enhanced skirmishes and the equally cacophonic bickering between the monk and the monkey. |
