- TriviaIt takes Aaron Kwok, Gigi Leung, and Him Law for about five to six hours to put on their special makeups; the makeups are easier for Shaofeng Feng and Shenyang Xiao, who only have to spend two to three hours. The heaviest make up goes to Chi-Ling Lin's character as the river goddess, for which she has to spend eight hours.

Featured review
Yes, it has its flaws. Yes, the plot is bad... but it's so bad it's good! It reminds me of 1994's "Street Fighter: The movie" with Jean-Claude Van Damme and the late, but glorious, Raoul Julia.
Just turn off your brain and enjoy the cringiness, the ovesaturated color schemes, the butt-naked jokes, the cartoonish acting and what was probably the first case of mpreg in the History of Literature.
In fact, under the layers upon layers of bad movie-making decisions lay the roots of what could've been a great story. All they needed to do was to establish a proper villain.
Let me fix it. They already had what they needed: the women of Womanland aren't "free" from men; they are trapped inside of a gilded cage.
How simple it would've been to push that theme. Just have the Royal Perceptor want to take the throne (and be secretly aware that they are poisoners, but not caring)... At the same time, have the fortune-teller be aware that they are prisoners, but unable to use the information... until she sees Wukong decide to give the Sacred "no-baby" Water to his friends.
With just that little modification, everything falls into place.
