fantasy martial arts extravaganza Stephen chow style, 11 February 2007
8/10
Author: brucev13 from Netherlands

"Chinese Odyssey" is a fantasy martial arts extravaganza like "A Chinese Ghost story"! The main character is Stephen Chow! If you have seen some of his movies than you know what to expect! He always tries to combine humor,martial arts and drama! Maybe for some the humor will be a bit over the top! But Stephen Chow's humor is very visual and will appeal to many viewers! A few scenes made me laugh so hard I almost choked! Very funny! During these scenes the actors maintain straight faces and are very serious about what they are doing which makes everything even funnier! If you have to compare this kind of humor you can compare it to "naked gun" series! Most of the martial arts is done with wire works! In combination with fighting demons this is done beautifully! The special effects may look a bit cheesy in addition to CGI,but are very enjoyable because most of the effects are very creative! This movie is truly a fairytale!
