Why The Monkey King scores this way

An animated comedy based on Chinese legend follows a brash, stick-wielding monkey who battles demons and seeks immortality alongside a young village girl. Fast-paced and frequently funny with cartoon action and fantasy battle sequences; mild peril and slapstick violence keep it on the energetic side for younger kids.
