    A movie that offers a great story with great visual effects...

    Well, I will just start by saying that "The Tales of Wu Kong" (aka "Wu Kong") turned out to be a really enjoyable movie. But mind you, you must have some interest in Chinese mythology to properly enjoy the movie for what it had to offer.

    I hadn't even heard about this 2017 movie from writers Hai Huang, Hezai Jin, Chi-Kin Kwok, Fan Wenwen and Henri Wong before now in 2020 when I actually sat down to watch it. And I was definitely impressed with what the movie turned out to be.

    The storyline is centered around the myth of the Monkey King, and it is actually a well-told and well-written storyline that provided good entertainment from start to end.

    And with a cast ensemble that included the likes of Eddie Peng and Shawn Yue, to mention but the most outstanding performers, the audience is definitely in for a treat.

    "Wu Kong" had spectacular visual effects and CGI. And these effects were every bit as bedazzling as they were great in bringing the events out to life on the screen. I have to admit that I was really impressed with the CGI and the level of details, especially since it looked so realistic and cool.

    The movie offers a bit of everything, ranging from drama, character development, romance and martial arts. So there definitely is something for just about anyone in the audience.

    My rating of "Wu Kong" lands on a seven out of ten stars. I was more than genuinely entertained and pleased with this movie. And if you have the chance to watch the 2017 "Wu Kong" movie, by all means do it.

    Could have been better, but great action scenes

    "The Tales of Wu Kong," or simply "Wu Kong," proved to be a delightful watch, but it's essential to have an interest in Chinese mythology to fully appreciate it. I stumbled upon this 2017 gem, written by Hai Huang, Hezai Jin, Chi-Kin Kwok, Fan Wenwen, and Henri Wong, in 2020, and was genuinely impressed.

    The plot loosely revolves around the Monkey King myth and is exceptionally well-crafted, providing entertainment from start to finish. With a cast featuring talents like Eddie Peng and Shawn Yue, it's a treat for the audience.

    The film boasts stunning visual effects and CGI, bringing the narrative to life with dazzling realism. It offers a blend of drama, character development, romance, and martial arts, catering to a wide audience.

    My rating for "Wu Kong" stands at seven out of ten stars. I was thoroughly entertained and recommend watching this 2017 film if you get the chance.

    This is the kind you watch and don't want to see the end

    We all know Chinese movies with martial arts improved a lot. You have to like this kind of movies with a lot fantasy, but I really enjoyed watching Wu Kong. The mix between martial arts, special effects and some great "emotional" scenes: i definitely rate this one very high.

    I will watch this movie each time the occasion pops up

    I love this movie and I will watch it many times!

    I wanted to submit as a review just what is said above, but IMDBS says that my review is too short. So I will say this: 1. I have no idea how such works are rated 5; 2. People should be obligated to post reviews in order to rate movies; 3. If you are a fan of Monkey King as a hero/character go watch this now!!! 4. If you are a fan of Wuxia genre and martial arts in general go watch this now!!!

    It's a beautiful story, great visuals, multiple well written characters, great acting.

    I'm so happy I watched this, It was an experience!

    Blown away!!!!

    Hi, Here I am a 62 year old (please translate " foreign devil" ) remembering my very young time in the 70's of watching Monkey on the public broadcaster in Australia. I didn't really understand it very well but was throughl6 entertained by the pathos of the 30 minute program and associated adventures. Thank you to the producers actors and directors of this version of the epic Monkey the King. It was ver6 educational and entertaining. Thanks Regards Rob
