Yeah, it used to be that most Hong Kong releases were region free but that's far more rare now which is a tragedy because in Region B only Germany tends to release the 3D versions, inevitably without English subtitles.
I will reluctantly get the Region A version if no alternative appears, the first one featured Donnie Yen and Chow Yun Fat but the sequel doesn't so it may be a harder sell. My hopes are for an Australian release... |

I must admit I didn't see the first film, which largely did not wow the critics, but when I read the reviews from Variety and Hollywood Reporter that the sequel actually delivered what the first film did not, my interest was piqued. So I watched this last night, and I was very... very impressed. The 3D ranged from medium to strong, but after awhile, you just started watching and enjoying the story for what it is. The cast and characters are perfect. The story never drags, and by the time the film reaches it's kinetic crazy finale - I was like 'bring on the third movie!!' On a technical note, there is a lot of visual 3D action that extends out of the framing into the area above and below the 2.40 AR screen which goes full throttle in the last action sequence.

I just got this from Hong Kong. Worth noting, the 2D Disc comes with DTS:X Soundtrack, while the 3D Disc comes with Dolby Atmos.

Awesome. I must order it. I will search for it on DDD House or YesAsia websites. I have the first movie and I enjoy the WILD other-worldly realm of the "gods" depicted in glorious 3D. Donnie Yen is quite entertaining as the Monkey King. Thanks, Terrence nycomet |

![]() ![]() ![]() Lotsa monkeys! ![]() Also, these movies (the 3D ones shown in order 1, 2 & 3 above) employ traditional Chinese storytelling, which is different from Western storytelling. Lots of little side stories that may or may not have to do with the main story. Crazy gods, witches, battles, vivid saturated colors, great 3D … just go along for the wild ride! I can’t resist plugging my favorite of them all, actually my favorite 3D movie overall … ![]() Stephen Chow’s “Journey to the West 2: The Demons Strike Back!” This one gets 5/5 stars for me, with nonstop in-your-face 3D, vivid colors, crazy characters, a fun plot and overall, a theme park ride of great 3D from beginning to end. Just my opinion, but I love it more each time I see it! ![]() And just to be clear, since it can be confusing, the three Monkey King 3DBRs shown above basically pick up where the previous ones ended. However Stephen Chow’s “Journey to the West 2: The Demons Strike Back” is a prequel, showing how the main crew of characters (including the Monkey King, who has a minor role in this one) initially got together.
