Added up, this is a solid if unremarkable storyline that works thanks to good performances from Aaron Kwok and William Feng, whose Xuanzhang is sanctimonious but compellingly sincere. This distrust between Wukong and Xuanzhang is the film's primary emotional conflict, with second place going to Xuanzhang's attempts at redeeming Lady White from her evil. Wukong often lashes out at villains that only he can see, causing Xuanzhang to punish him by shrinking his golden headband and causing him pain. Thanks to his 'fiery eyes', Wukong can see through illusions so Lady White uses the Monkey's violent nature as a means of sowing strife. Distracting Baijie, who lusts after Lady White's female companions, and Wujing, who's more brawn than brain, is easy but Wukong is another matter. What follows are numerous encounters between Lady White and our four heroes as she attempts to wrest Xuanzhang from their protection. the White Bone Devil (Gong Li), who wishes to consume XuanzhangвЂ™s flesh to remain immortal and not have to go through that pesky resurrection thing. Now complete, the group runs afoul of the filmвЂ™s main villain: Lady White a.k.a. From then on, Wukong is tasked with protecting Xuanzhang on his journey to the west and, after some initial antagonism, the two are joined by demons Baijie a.k.a. Monkey King 2 kicks off the fateful meeting between the monk Xuanzhang (William Feng) and Sun Wukong (Kwok), as Xuanzhang frees Wukong from his prison beneath Five Elements Mountain. All things considered, The Monkey King 2 is competent if not very compelling Lunar New Year entertainment вЂ“ basically an unassuming blockbuster that does its job cleanly without the issues plaguing other big-budget VFX-infused fantasy films like Zhong Kui: Snow Girl and the Dark Crystal or The White-Haired Witch of Lunar Kingdom. They won't but don't get too carried away.

All around, the Yen-to-Kwok move is an improvement, and the movie is better than its predecessor too. Also, thanks to some creative makeup and costume design, Kwok manages to look like a monkey and himself, which is a step up from Donnie Yen's very simian-looking Sun Wukong. Yen was playful but too cuddly, while Kwok excels at both the Monkey's bashful mischievousness and his darker sides. Moreover, Kwok brings the Monkey King's character to life better than Donnie Yen did. For one, Kwok was unremarkable as antagonist King Bull, so it's not like him playing the hero here causes much dissonance.

The casting switch is inspired for a number of reasons. Continuity be damned, Kwok takes on the mantle of Sun Wukong in this sequel to the 2014 fantasy epic The Monkey King, which starred martial arts superstar Donnie Yen in the title role. Aaron Kwok replaces Donnie Yen in the title role and itвЂ™s actually an improvement.ДЄaron Kwok returns in The Monkey King 2 вЂ“ but hey, wasn't he the bad guy last time? No matter. Superior sequel to The Monkey King (2014) that benefits from a terrific performance from Gong Li as the villain.
