It was okay. The main character is basically Keanu Reeves, but he knows kung fu. He has a very boisterous tiger God friend who's the main source of the movie's comedic moments. They weren't awful, but weren't super memorable either. He eventually finds the girl and slowly become friends, then they're become chased by an evil king and then things become kinda confusing, like, I wish I knew more about Chinese mythology to get this stuff. Anyway, the Gods are dicks and Keanu has to kick their asses because they're dicks. The post-credit scene was kinda funny and all about setting up the Ne Zha cinematic universe. This movie was okay.

The 3D animation was good. I liked the wuxia fight scenes a lot. Unfortunately it also has this 2d, animesque intro that was so, so good it kinda makes the rest of the movie look pale in comparison.
