I bought both these movies because of the rave reviews from Stephen Chow fans. Their biggest drawback: substandard English subtitles. However, the movies pay you back for sticking with them in spite of this.
The first one was kind of tough -- lots of broad physical humor -- a few brilliant Stephen Chow gags. And the second one is connected to the first one in only a haphazard way.
But you really do need to see both of them.
My interest was immediately captured ... Read More

I went out and bought this movie alone with part 1. The first time I saw this movie was back in 1995 when my dad rented it on those old laser disc lol. This was an exellent movie, another one of Steven Chow's fabulous crazy movie. As I was watching the movie it got a bit lame and boring during mid way, but the ending made it on my fav movie list.

I've already expressed my great appreciation of this movie in another review of part one. I believe part one and two are inseparable, and they are equally good, but quite different in style. While part one is more slapstic and more funny, part two is a more "serious" exploration of identity, time, and love, in a more postmodern sense.

The second and finale to the Chinese Odyssey adventure has Joker (Stephen Chow) travelling 500 years back via the Pandora's Box to save his designated beloved, Pak Jingjing (Karen Mok, who has died in part 1). Unfortunately (or fortunately) he meets with the Zixia Fairy (played by a ravishing Athena Chu) who's convinced he's the one for her -- although she's also co-possessed by the spirit of her sister, Lin Qingxia (aka Brigitte Lin, in a satiric nod to "Ashes of Time"). It's funnier (though not wackier) than ... Read More
