I always knew that China & Japan are the leading countries when it came to fantastic production of fantasy movies & dramas. This movie is no exception. You'll get :
●Unique plot ideas
●Badass CGIs
●Cute and funny monsters design
●Some suspenseful action scenes
●Promising characters & chemistry between the mainleads
●All entertainment you can get in a fantasy movie

But! Here are some reasons why I think the movie isn't 'complete' (Spoiler Alert!) :

1. The movie literally spent little time for the viewers to grow accustomed with the world that the characters live in & to get to know the characters. Honestly it really felt soo rushed out, I still have many questions regarding the character's background. Why is there even a character like Charlene that clearly had connections with Meng but her character was not explored, or who is exactly Uncle Ping is? Damn during the last minutes, there are more questions flew inside my head.

2. The movie's storyline pacing is clearly the biggest problem here. Why spent so much screen time with the mainleads doing nothing important in his house rather than focusing on the main conflict. The production team was clearly trying to cramped all of the ideas into the movie and it resulted in 'rough' cut scenes from one scene to another scene. The contrast between the scenes was too visible, the pacing was not smooth at all.

3. Uncountable plot holes here and there are unbearable for people who really counted detail things. Like how was it exactly Ji Mo's mother was admitted to a hospital in the first place, is she sick bcs of monster sent by Lotus? How's her mother doing after her accepting her fate? What about the paper character, will he always be the left hand for Meng (I'm gonna miss him so much..)? Are there no monster hunter in China besides those characters? If that so then it's just too pathetic..Why only two monsters were shown up? The production team literally tried their best to create HEA ending, but all I can catch up is cliffhangers at its finest, smh..

Like I said before, this movie is actually very promising, well yeah it kinda will be like 'hit or miss' type of movie with people who watch it. It's a miss for me for the lack of many elements, but if you're a fantasy movies/dramas lover that don't really matter with details and just strive for pure entertainment, this movie might be for you..

Well, I think that I will enjoy the story line more IF they decided to make this into a drama. Just like K-Dramas with short episodes (8-20 episodes), I believe that this story line will be executed more perfectly. I'd like to watch it again if they decided to make this movie into a drama tho! With cute monsters design and all drama surrounding the capture and the return, relationship development between the mainleads, more screen time & backgorund for the supporting characters.

Anyway, just watch it guys. If you're a fan of fantasy/adventure/action/comedy movies, this movie might be your cup of tea. A movie worth to spent your spare time. Keep your mind open and enjoy the ride!! Would rate it : 7,5/10❤
