MacDonald and editor Colin Green do their best to make all this coherent, but it's a struggle. Go to Full Review

Any mini-series that begins in the underground chamber of the ancient Chinese terra-cotta warriors is okay by me. Go to Full Review

05/23/2012 I caught this one night on the sci-fi channel, I had an interest in buddhism and the story of the Monkey King. It wasn't great but it was decent. See more 05/23/2012 2 hr 13 min? the one we recorded from Syfy (same cast) was 4 hrs. definitely could have been shortened. pretty Americanized, but not bad. See more 05/02/2012 One of my fav. movies of all time. See more 01/26/2012 I very much enjoyed this film. I haven't had much background as far as the "Monkey King", other than the Japanese series when it was being broadcast in the U.K. (Under the appropriate title "Monkey"). Still, I kind of was aware of the characters, and liked their appearance in this flick. One thing I didn't care for was the length, which was no doubt easier to handle during it's television broadcast. Also, towards the end shortly after the scene shifts to the modern day. I think if you give it a chance, you'd like this. See more 12/22/2010 Extremely well made, featuring an all star cast. The plot twisted so intreguingly and the fight scenes were spectacular. By far best movie of 2001 See more 02/15/2009 classic chinese story, has fantasy and martial arts adventure. good for kids to see. See more Read all reviews
