    DESERVES 7 STARS, AT LEAST, FOR THE AWE-INSPIRING ANIMATION
    I really liked the tale of Jiang Ziya, who seeks to clear his name of illusions and rescue someone from the clutches of a demon. It's an interesting watch, as it showcases the nobility and kindness of the gods, who only want to protect people. For the first 50 minutes or so, our protagonists are on a quest, and nothing really of significance really happens. But once our protags reach Mount Youdu, the action kicks off spectacularly and the conflict escalates too. With the Nine-Tailed Fox coming to action to pose significant threat to Jiang Ziya. And from there, there's no stopping. The movie is contemplative, emotional, and action-packed, with not much room for comedy. Except the scenes with Four-alike. They're fun, and also the one scene with it will make you bawl your eyes out. I really liked the arc of Jiang Ziya defying the gods for not being able to save an innocent's life, and the totality of that narrative was interesting. And Nine-Tailed Fox's backstory was also sad. I totally dug the film. Loved it. The only flaw that I would point out that, the world of Jiang Ziya is too complex and sprawling that the pace of the film doesn't really give a break to process the world-building. Which resulted in the movie's mythos not really making coherent sense. I understand the context of the Chinese culture, but a little more accessibility would've given the movie a wider audience who could've truly appreciated the wonderful visuals and heartwarming story.
