Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons

amazing show. stephen chow is my favourite director, actor, porn star, fatherly figure and idol. no way xx has amazing taste in movies

Classic Stephen Chow... pure entertainment and a great take on a classic Chinese tale. Constantly hilarious, full of action, a love story, dramatic, and sad at the same time. No character is safe or spared and a hell of a cinematic experience IMO. Just a great watch if you love Stephen Chow's work, especially Kung Fu Hustle which it reminds me a lot of... anyway, definitely pop it on one day if you haven't seen it!

Journey to the West has the same beats as Stephen Chow's earlier film, Kung Fu Hustle, but isn't quite as funny or heartfelt. However, it is still plenty entertaining, and like his earlier films, is sustained with visual and emotional variety. The movie holds no punches. It contains some truly disturbing images and not even cute children are safe from the demons, assuring the viewer the stakes are real, even if the action is over-the-top and cartoony.

Affectionately made and well-paced, Journey To The West: Conquering the Demons never fails to entertain, delight and humor the audience, balancing comedy, action and romance in this attempt at a prequel to a beloved classic.

I was intrigued by this movie, as it has stephen chows name to it. It didnt disappoint but it did miss the mark for me. Still I didnt mind it and it just adds to his repertoire

I liked [kinda] "Kung Foo Hustle." Wasn't aware of this one. Lokking forward to this on my wihlist

Not bad, some of emotional scene

Granted, I'm not that familiar with the classic story this is based on. But I did have some laugh out loud moments and visual effects are pretty decent. At least Shu Qi has something to do in this movie, unlike her Mojin flick.

Well written, well directed, well acted. Exceptional.

At times horrific, funny, sad and fantastic, I quite enjoyed this movie! Also makes me want to visit China. Such pretty areas they filmed!
