Leave your thoughts about The Monkey King 2.
| Screen InternationalJames MarshBig-name stars and dazzling visuals leap off the screen in eye-popping 3D, while the most recognisable chapter of China’s most-beloved literary text plays out in exuberant and energetic fashion. The Year of the Monkey could not have asked for a more enthusiastic welcome. |
| The Hollywood ReporterElizabeth KerrThe Monkey King 2 is served well by Cheang’s willingness to keep the story straightforward and linear, weaving the various threads together seamlessly and complementing it with its outré action and stunts rather than smothering it with them. |
| VarietyMaggie LeeCertainly less of a dud than the director’s inane original, this follow-up is even more tyke-oriented, but at least it’s a livelier yarn and boasts a slick upgrade in visual effects. |
| User ReviewBoninThis movie is about magical, especially it’s easy to follow. The story begins with the monkey that was born from the rock in the monkey area in the mountain. Later it grew up with another monkey but this monkey has a strange ability because he can do anything with the magic. After that, he went to study with the teacher in the sky, he learned a lot about how to fight or change the body, especially he gave the name to this monkey is Wukong. Wukong was expelled from school after he has shown the material arts. When he became to his place the king cow has destroyed his children and killed them. After Wukong knew this he when to fought with king cow, they fought for a long time. In the end, Wukong killed the king cow with his magical because of the evil of the king cow that destroyed his place. The characters are great because they used magic to fight. The show tells the story of anger of the monkey that lost his place especially his children. This story is also a sad ending because the king cow died and Wukong lost everything. |
