it was either a 1 or 5 star for me it was so cheesy that I was torn. It played up on the bad cgi and although the acting was not terrible the plot was cute.

It's a cheesy and cheap throw-away film. But it's kind of cute and endearing, and a decent tribute to "Journey To The West". A guilty pleasure.

NO STARS. This was the worst five hours of movie crammed into three hours of watching. If my brain had a crotch, this movie would have spent the whole time smashing it with a hammer. Truly, truly atrocious.
