Le Roi singe 3

I already can accept the second movie to differ from the first one. But, the third movie is even more differ. I don't know if it was intentional or not, but as a trilogy, your movies need to have a visual handsign to make them have red string to one another. These trilogy in another hand, feel disconnected.

As for this trilogy, the 2nd movie is better than the 3rd movie. This statement coming from someone who still think Donnie Yen's first installment as the best.

I don't understand what happened to the downgrade. Is it so hard for the director to make his production consistent?

I heard the 2nd movie had the same CGI studio of Lord of The Ring and The Hobbit to worked on the project. I think this movie couldn't get that studio back and it ended up in lesser quality.

The tonal shift of somber, but humorous 2nd film to this full on soap opera comedy blew my mind in the bad way.

"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.

Nothing special on this film and too much CGI using , this is when China got CGI ,China have a lot of location that very extraordinary but they choose to using CGI

From a coarse comedy gradually transitions to a semi-finished film industrial product, which rely on dialogue of figures in the film to explain what is happening now. Based on this, all the disputes and criticism about adaptation and casting are could be ignored. What's more, as the only actor that performing seriously in the film, it seems that Aaron Kwok is in a inopportune filming site, such as when the Monkey King, a mighty mythological figure in ancient times, discussing that whether the abortion is reasonable with other ordinary people...

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.
