This is my favorite movie I've seen so far. This movie takes a creative spin on jttw and makes it about a fallen hero who has lost sight of who they are, regaining their powers because a child believes in him. The animation and music is absolutely beautiful. I also really love the character designs. Out of the many designs of Sun Wukong this one is definitely my favorite. Although though are a few criticisms like how the plot isn't explained that well or how the dubbing sometimes doesn't match with their lips, despite these flaws it is still an overall great movie. I think with a higher budget and more time, the director could've achieved this movie to its perfection. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who loves Chinese films or is a big fan of the monkey king legend.
