A Chinese Odyssey: Parts 1 & 2 (1995)

Joker (Chow) leads a band of outlaws, but soon discovers his purpose in life is something far greater. Learning that he is the reincarnation of the fabled Monkey King who had betrayed his master five hundred years earlier, Joker finds himself beset by all manner of outrageous obstacles on his journey to come to terms with his past life. From demons to mystic artifacts, from martial arts action to time-travelling adventure, this spectacular two-part epic is a stunning showcase of Hong Kong cinema's heyday, and the many talents of Stephen Chow.

  The Monkey King! <br><br> 'Pandora's Box' - An ambitious, highly-produced costume fable based upon the folk legend "Journey to the West," which finds the playful, once-divine Monkey King (now reborn in a human form) employing a mysterious time-travel device (the titular box) in his quest to shed his human feet of clay. A showcase for the comic gifts of the rubber-faced and nimble Chow, with plenty of dramatic interest, special effects, and martial arts action. <br><br> 'Cinderella' - The convoluted continuation of the adventures of the time-traveling, now- human Monkey King, who attempts to fulfill his divine destiny.
