A Chinese Odyssey - Part I, Pandora's Box (1995)
西遊記 月光寶盒
Director: Lau Chun Wai
Starring: Stephen
Chow, Atbena Chu, Mok Man Wai
This epic costume film is one of
Stephen Chow’s best films.
The adventures of the Longevity Monk &
his disciple, the playful Monkey King is portrayed in this fascinating
Chinese epic. Punished by the gods, they are sent down to earth
reincarnated as mortals.
An ambitious, highly-produced costume
fable based upon the folk legend "Journey to the West," which finds the
playful, once-divine Monkey King (now reborn in a human form) employing
a mysterious time-travel device (the titular box) in his quest to shed
his human feet of clay. A showcase for the comic gifts of the
rubber-faced and nimble Chow, with plenty of dramatic interest, special
effects, and martial arts action.
