A Chinese Odyssey has a vast story that is reminiscent of many period pieces and stories regarding the Journey West or the Legend of the Monkey King. Taking the old tales and giving them a Chow twist is the basic gist of the movie, but it offers a lot more than the usual balls to the wall laugh riot Chow movies. This first installment involves Joker (Chow) who is the reincarnated Monkey King, falling in love with the devil known in evil form as Boney M. There are many twists and turns, and the only way to set things straight is for Joker to use the mysterious time travel-enabling Pandora’s Box.
