Review of A Chinese Tall Story (2005) by Vin Shen B — 25 Mar 2007
A Chinese Tall story has to have one of the craziest plots I have ever seen. Featuring a monk with a group of supernatural guardians, hoards of bug soldiers, a group of demons, and time travelers from the future, you get a movie that is funny, dramatic and action-packed.
When the wandering monk reaches a city, they praise him but soon try and sacrifice him to have the children of the city returned. One of his guardians launch him on their staff that can do just about anything when you tell it "I will love you for 10,000 years" which causes him to land in a demon camp with a foul looking demon who falls in love with him.
If you want to see a crazy movie, with one of the most off-beat plots I have ever encountered, A Chinese Tall Story is definitely up you're alley. Don't be afraid, dive in, it won't kill you, and if it does, giant Buddha will come and re-animate you as a horse anyway.
