Thought this was a sequel to 2015's 'Monkey King: Hero is Back' purely based on Monkey's look in those two films, but not sure now.
Anyway, having watched Ne Zha, Ne Zha Reborn, White Snake and White Snake 2, I'm hooked on these Chinese big budget animation epics now and this carries on that strong tradition.
If you loved those films and just bonkers, action packed, colourful characters, with enormous scale and beautiful animation, then Monkey King Reborn won't disappoint.

Another great Chinese animation
It's so ugly
Guo Man, give me some encouragement. The image of Wukong is okay, and the others are either ugly or fake. The special effects are okay. The plot is just so-so!
Predictable/watchable
Good animation, excellent score, a you seen it once you seen them all story of good vs evil martial arts yada yada yada. Predictable and yet watchable popcorn. Watch once and enjoy.
