If anything, Demons Strike Back is an even zanier and more kid-friendly affair than the Chow original. Yet without Chow's unique strain of silliness, it also feels louder and more antic while covering less ground. Feb 3, 2017 | Rating: C+ | Full Review…

All spectacle and little substance, a stop-gap title produced perhaps to keep the brand going while the producers search for a way to bring the series forward. Feb 2, 2017 | Full Review…

This tension between tradition and subversion results in a curiously unstable film; easy enough to watch in the moment, but unnaturally slippery in meaning. Dec 19, 2017 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Mildly entertaining with dazzling visual spectacle, but more silly, exhausting and outrageous rather than fun or funny. Apr 4, 2017 | Rating: 5.8/10 | Full Review…

While [the film] is never less than watchable, it's hard to shake the impression that Tsui [Hark] has partly ditched - or maybe failed to replicate - [Stephen] Chow's irreverent sense of humour. Jan 29, 2017 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…
