Zu: Warriors of the Magic Mountain Reviews
Visually innovative
Does it have a disjointed plot? Yep. Poor continuity? You bet. Incomprehensible ending? Sure. Cheesy effects? Yes again, by modern standards, anyway. Is it a massively cool film? Hell, yes!
Do not watch this movie expecting deeply moving themes, great acting, high art, or really just about anything you'd normally watch a movie for. If you do, you'll be disappointed. This is not a normal movie. Watching Zu is really more of a life Experience. Think of yourself as Winne-the-Pooh Watching Surreal Fantasy Images.
This film achieves a level of fantastic strangeness rarely equaled in live-action cinema. Where else will you see a man imprisoning an evil demon using his eyebrows, or a man chained to rocks being sucked into the mouth of hell? No, none of it makes much sense, but just go with it, and you won't regret it.
Too Much Fantasy....Not Enough Of Anything Else.
As much as I like Tsui Hark, I can only recommend this movie to his die hard fans and anyone who wants to complete their Fantasy movies collection. This movie relies too much on special effects and not enough of anything else. Regardless, it's fun to watch once in a while as a novelty.
