Xi you ji zhi: Sun Wukong san da Baigu Jing
(2016)

The Monkey King Havoc in Heaven's Palace was our first choice.
Love the movie. Thought it was entertaining and my kids wanted to see it again. But we all agree Donnie Yen was a better choice for The Monkey King / Sun Wu Kong The Monkey King Havoc in Heaven's Palace was our first choice and favorite among the two so far. Havoc in Heaven's Palace seem to have more story structure and the kids liked the characters better and loved the historical fight scenes with Donnie Yen's Character. My wife seemed to like the most the musical score of the film and we purchased the soundtrack in which we listen to quite often.

My Kids also each wanted there own Blu-Ray in which I purchased for all three of them. With anything the first is always the better of the two but recommend both.

The Monkey King Havoc in Heaven's Palace was Epic
We have watched this film 7 times now and it gets better every time. The Monkey King was heroic in this film and exactly the way Sun-Wukong should be portrayed as. Donnie Yen has incredible skills and has great action scenes throughout the film. My kids all now own Blu-Rays and the film has said to be a traditional watch every Chinese New Year.

This film was very entertaining and was worth the wait. The special effects were fantastic and it pulls you in from the first scene of the movie. I have to say for an actor I definitely see this as a trademark performance in Donnie Yen's Career.

I highly recommend this movie for all age groups.
