Easily the best movie in the entire franchise!
VFX acting etc is all on point.
I didn't have high expectations for a sequel, especially after Donnie yen was replaced.
I'm pleased to report that this sequel surpasses its predecessor in every way. The script primarily centers on Sun Wukong and the Bone Demoness, leaving the monk character appearing somewhat bumbling. He bears a striking resemblance to his counterpart in Stephen Chow's "Journey to the West." Aaron Kwok's portrayal of Sun Wukong is notably less flamboyant than Donnie Yen's, and for that, I am appreciative.
The special effects in this sequel are masterfully executed, a welcome improvement over the disaster of the first movie. If I hadn't already seen the likes of "Iron Man" or "Harry Potter," I would have been even more impressed by some of the effects in the final battle scene.
Gong Li's visual presence, in my opinion, epitomizes the essence of womanhood.
Also bare in mind 'monkey king' is not a fit title, Chinese have changed what was once 'Monkey god', you can google this or search youtube.
