Apart from the graphics ,there is different plot to original story . there is quite decent comedies and added story which isnt necessary in the movie. anyway the actress is beautiful too. its a family show. if u r into heavy stuff,then its not for u. if u wanna decent laugh and eyeball popping,recommend u n ur children watch it.

Yes, it has its flaws. Yes, the plot is bad... but it's so bad it's good! It reminds me of 1994's "Street Fighter: The movie" with Jean-Claude Van Damme and the late, but glorious, Raoul Julia.

Just turn off your brain and enjoy the cringiness, the ovesaturated color schemes, the butt-naked jokes, the cartoonish acting and what was probably the first case of mpreg in the History of Literature.

In fact, under the layers upon layers of bad movie-making decisions lay the roots of what could've been a great story. All they needed to do was to establish a proper villain.

Let me fix it. They already had what they needed: the women of Womanland aren't "free" from men; they are trapped inside of a gilded cage.

How simple it would've been to push that theme. Just have the Royal Perceptor want to take the throne (and be secretly aware that they are poisoners, but not caring)... At the same time, have the fortune-teller be aware that they are prisoners, but unable to use the information... until she sees Wukong decide to give the Sacred "no-baby" Water to his friends.

With just that little modification, everything falls into place.

I usually do not watch this kind of films, but this series is exceptional! It is entertaining and I really loved the sound tracks :) The story line was really good as well, with continuous liveliness. As 'Monkey King3' focuses on relationship of characters and detailed story line, yes, it is bit less entertaining than 'Monkey King1&2', but its cinematic quality is higher than previous ones. This film was like a gift set to me :)

Cosmetics and effects rivaling, if not trumping, The Shape of Water, a star cast, precedence and notoriety for its previous installments, and a story adapted from a famous ancient Chinese novel deeply imbedded in Chinese national identity (as well as renditions throughout East Asia), were all foundational pieces to set this film in good standing. While depicting the Journey to The West may be nationalist in itself, I find it incredibly unfortunate that this film took opportunity to inject current political propaganda, particularly in favor of the implications of limited children policies. What more, I concur with Elizabeth Kerr that this film "felt like a missed opportunity" to depict its primarily female cast as active-not-reactive. This may be in part due to the source content of the relevant chapters of Journey to the West, yet license had been routinely taken throughout each film in the franchise and there is no good reason to miss the mark here given the nature of the setting and plot. Traditional gender normative are further enforced by the villainization of androgyny and an unfavorable transgender depiction, which was a notable change from the source material. There is also a villainization of Western convention seen through the cosmetic portrayals of our main female protagonist and (for lack of better word) antagonist using the film's contextually-current beauty standards of China and America ("current" for the latter being a bit loosely defined from an American context as it leans a bit more early 2000s, yet still made iconic by American icons such as Barbie with blue eyeshadow, pink lips and blush high on the cheekbones, unnaturally lined eyebrows, and thick winged eyeliner), respectively. This is highly unfortunate given the franchise's seeming success and popularity overseas. Forgiving this work as a result of its context, particularly in how domestic businesses are obligated to be to some extent puppeteer by Chinese official policy in order to exist, the film is enjoyable as a campy (wire effects and costumes like the Power Rangers but CGI like a chef's kiss) and interesting installment to the series that uniquely focuses on love as opposed to strictly fantasy martial arts. I am weary about the injection of propaganda in future installments, but I wait with baited breath nonetheless to give an anticipated 4th installment, rumored to be in the works since 2018 (which I hope the pandemic has not entirely derailed), a chance. I hold on to hope that we may take a step back and focus more on what was done right with the second movie which lacked in the third to bring into the fourth- particularly an equal strength and depth of character for all participants, regardless of sex or gender.

"The Monkey King 3" takes a slightly different approach compared to its predecessors. While still maintaining elements of action and adventure, the film shifts its focus towards romance and human emotions. This change might be polarizing for fans who were expecting a more action-packed and faithful adaptation of the source material. However, it offers a fresh perspective and allows for character development in unexpected ways. One of the notable aspects of the film is its attempt to address themes of gender identity and inclusion. The introduction of a female character into the mix adds an interesting dynamic to the group and sparks discussions about gender roles and expectations. While the film's exploration of these themes is commendable, it's worth noting that the execution might not satisfy everyone, and some viewers might find it overly simplified or contrived.

Overall, "The Monkey King 3" is a departure from its predecessors in terms of tone and focus. Its blend of fantasy, romance, and character-driven storytelling, along with its impressive visual effects, makes it a fascinating addition to the series. However, it's important to approach this film with an open mind, as it diverges from the traditional interpretation of the "Journey to the West" narrative. Fans of fantasy films with a touch of romance and a willingness to explore new dimensions of well-known characters might find this installment intriguing.
