      John DeFore Hollywood Reporter Viewers with a high tolerance for computer-generated fantasy are the target this time, and may well enjoy the ride. Dec 18, 2017 Full Review Maggie Lee Variety As with so many of Tsui's works, subplots and characters multiply out of control after the first act. Dec 18, 2017 Full Review Simon Abrams RogerEbert.com A lot of things transpire in any given scene, but none of them will make you care what happens next. Rated: 2/4 Dec 15, 2017 Full Review Edmund Lee South China Morning Post For all the shape-shifting antics and giant fantasy creatures that it throws at the audience, Dunjia is only ever as fun as its characters get. Rated: 3/5 Jan 3, 2018 Full Review John Berra Screen International So eager to entertain that it forgets to establish a clear narrative, internal logic, or characters the audience can care about. Dec 20, 2017 Full Review Daniel Eagan Film Journal International If you like [Tsui Hark's] style of dense plotting, mysterioso set-pieces and weird sex, Dunjia is a blast-but with a lot of holes in it.

      Audience Member Not a bad viewing experience the CGI wasnt the best but the characters where imaginative. Some fun parts and some funny parts. Dont expect "crouching tiger" levels of intelect but if your after a lighthearted Chinese fantasy you could do worse than this. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member This joint was off the hook. I am about to rent part two now. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member THis movie meets expectations, ignore the ratings where it does not stand Up tO American CGI comparisons. For the storyline, caSt, crew, and budget, a solid four. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Low-level effect and acting. don't waste your time watching it. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member I'm a fan of both the director and writer/producer of this film so was expecting great things, well, at least a fun ride! I didn't get it. What I got was a convoluted, confusing plot, overwrought, messy CGI and FX, and stereotyped characters more suited to Chinese TV historical soap operas. The idea was intriguing: an alien race vying for control in ancient China, but, alas, it doesn't seem to have been carefully enough thought through. The film does have its moments, though, just not enough of them! It gets 3 stars from me primarily because of the period sets, which look great and the cinematography is pretty good, too. The cast do well with what they've got, which isn't much, so a star for effort. Overall, though, somewhat disappointing. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Watched the movie yesterday, deeply enjoyed it and impressed by some very interesting geopolitical implications embedded in the movie. Very entertaining and thought provoking. Many thanks to the production team that give me this wonderful movie experience. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
