As sweet, silly, action-packed and ridiculous as director Steven Chow's best work, Journey to the West serves up dazzling action sequences while playing its disparate elements against each other with thrilling abandon.

By turns daffy and dazzling, awkward and artful, "Journey to the West" takes an ancient tale and gives it contemporary flair. Mar 7, 2014 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Mr. Chow has perhaps achieved more sustained and elaborate adventures, but he hits a sweet spot of comedy that never grows too self-aware or forgets the value of a good, clean demon whomping. Mar 6, 2014 | Full Review…

The final product is very much Chow - with elaborately staged stunts, slapstick inspired by silent Hollywood, and a silliness that will appeal to kids (as well as some black humor that may take some explaining for younger audiences). Mar 6, 2014 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Stephen Chow's Journey To The West: Conquering The Demons is a thoroughly entertaining action comedy that suggests, a la Woody Allen, a promising new life behind the screen for the actor-director. Mar 30, 2016 | Full Review…

It is a work that appears to ask so little from its audience (not much more than patience and an alert eye), but gives a heck of a lot back. Jul 3, 2014 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…
