Title: Great fun for all ages
Review: This is not real mythology, but it does mention several legit Chinese myths. Of course, it's not meant for a mythology or history lesson, it's meant for entertainment. This is not a great movie by any stretch. Having read the reviews already on here, it's not even a good movie to some people. It is, however, entertaining and fun to watch. Yeah, the story does wander off of the plot a few times, but it always meanders back. The acting is hardly Oscar caliber, but the actors are good enough to get the point across. Ling Bai is very good as the Goddess of Mercy. She is able to be sweet, sexy and heroic at the same time. The main selling point for me, though, is that my 9 year old granddaughter and I can watch this movie and enjoy it together. She likes the character of the goddess and that gives her a good female role model in the movies and that's not something a lot of movies offer these days (ie Mean Girls). A good, fun way to spend a couple of hours.
Is the review positive or negative?
