The acting is excellent. I found all of the characters quite engaging, except the lead guy Ben Wang who plays an extremely selfish unlikeable kid.
Michelle Yeoh brings her regal, serene presence to the adventures and is well matched with Jimmy Iiu as Wei-Chen and Daniel Wu as the Monkey King. The tv comedy sitcom segments feature a crummy role for Ke Huy Quan, but he somehow managed to evoke sympathy for his accident-prone-stupid character. Jin Wang's non Asian friends come across as a fairly bland, one dimensional bunch of happy American kids who don't seem nearly as real as the Chinese gods.
