'Journey to the West' comedy version hits Vietnamese theaters

The film has a new perspective on the 82nd ordeal of the four Tang Monks and Monks and will be released to audiences on January 8.

As one of the "four great classics" of China, Journey to the West is also the work that has been adapted into the most versions. When making the sequels to Journey to the West, producers focused on the humorous elements in the situations as well as the character creation. In which, Journey to the West: Surprise (original name: Journey to the West: Surprise) tells the story of Tang Monk and his disciples going to get the scriptures in a rather strange way.

The publisher revealed that in this version, Tang Monk and his disciples in the 82nd calamity have to face a monster named Dai Chuy. This character has pointed ears and ordinary magic but is very arrogant. Dai Chuy's fate completely changes after encountering Ton Ngo Khong, Tru Bat Gioi and Sa Tang. The fighting scenes are humorously transformed with "unique" weapons such as durian, cold rice grains... The character of Ton Ngo Khong is also built with dyed blonde and curly hair.
