Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With a box office flop and little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for romantics, anyone who wants a laugh and fantasy fans. If you loved The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, start here.
The mood
Funny with heart, romantic.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 39 min.
What might put you off
It's in Cantonese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

This sequel to "Pandora's Box" continues director Jeffrey Lau's adaptation of the Buddhism saga "Journey to the West". Stranded five centuries in the past, Joker Monkey King must battle a variety of monsters, seductive women and super-powered villains to save the dying Pak Jing-Jing.
