The monkey is arrogant, entitled, and selfish. Understandably, the character has been challenging to sympathize with in previous films. The biggest struggle of the animated film is the main character, Sun Wukong. This film works as its own standalone piece. And hopefully, you have been paying attention because there will be no exposition breaks to catch you up.
For better or worse, the monkey and his compatriots have returned. Reversely, adapting these characters into 2D takes away much of the charm that was the cheesy 3D computer graphics that sent The Monkey King soaring across the big screen. Thankfully, the Monkey King lives on, in the form of this newly released animated feature. Unfortunately, with each subsequent release, the resulting film trilogy slowly became more lacklustre. Described as a “hot mess from the heavens”, the awkward movie smashed Chinese box office records on its way to becoming a global franchise. The movie franchise started with the 2014 Chinese action/fantasy feature that genuinely surprised audiences worldwide. Unfortunately, the innocent spirit is not going to make the journey easy for the disgruntled and arrogant Sun Wukong. However, they will need the help of the vital spirit, who had initially trapped their enemy. It will be up to Sun Wukong and his companions to entrap the ancestor demon once more before the entire world is lost. And now that the ancient beast is awake, the demon god will unite heaven, Earth, and the netherworld. Unfortunately, that very plant was withholding the ancestor of all demons. Unable to control his own rage, the monkey sage has destroyed an ancient magical tree. The monkey demon king, Sun Wukong, has made a grave error.
