The film is mainly drawn from a talented and lawless young man who does not like the big cause assigned to him by the world. He especially couldn't stand the nagging of the master, but the secular rules (Kuan Yin) did not let him go. In order to make him repent and learn the scriptures willingly, Tang Seng and Guanyin reached a compromise: let him be a man again in five hundred years. This is really the beginning of a fate. Five hundred years later, Wukong is called ZhiZunBao, and he is engaged in a promising career in Wuyue Mountain-Bandit.
Fate wants him to play Monkey King, ZhiZunBao is just a transition. The spider spirit is here, the bone spirit is here, the Bodhi ancestor is here, and the bull demon king is also here. They are all chess pieces, standing quietly in the center of the fate board.
His route was determined early: 1. One person gave him three moles. 2. Put on the curse. 3. Defeat the Bull Demon King. 4. Learning from the Western Heavens. Poor ZhiZunBao didn't know anything, he was serious about being a bandit, and fell in love with the white bone spirit, and wanted to marry her for a hundred years. Everything happened one after another without telling him. The person who gave ZhiZunBao three moles was Fairy Zixia. I like Zixia's opening remarks very much: "Now I solemnly declare that everything on this mountain is mine, including you." That kind of breath pierced the sky, like a fairy tale.
The reality is: nothing in this world belongs to you, including yourself. Maybe we came to this world just to create something of our own. Because we are young, we bet on love.
ZhiZunBao rejected Zixia because he thought he still loved Jingjing. Seeing Jingjing, he discovered that Zixia was true love. Fate has been with him
A joke: ZhiZunBao suddenly became Monkey King. After all the hard work, she found Jingjing and fell in love with Zixia. And the choice is so cruel: to defeat the Bull Demon King and save Zixia, you must wear the Huoqiu Mantra to return to the magical Monkey King; while wearing the Huoqiu Mantra, you can’t have the slightest desire, only learn from the experience. Injustice for ZhiZunBao: I don’t understand why love always becomes a victim in such a story, why not let Stephen Chow carry Zixia's slender hands — go first! I have reflected similar opinions on the Internet countless times, and I am very tired. Love is so beautiful and fragile, unable to face the triviality and tenacity of life. ZhiZunBao dug out his heart and saw a tear left by Zixia, after all, she had been in the ocean. Five hundred years and five hundred years, I went in a big circle and returned to the original place. Humans failed to defeat fate, but human dignity was affirmed in the struggle, and human emotions will also be immortal. () 
This post-modern movie shows an ancient Buddhist view of causal love, which can be regarded as an explanation of the principle that love has never changed over the ages. Coupled with the post-modern dispelling and nonsensical and funny style, it has actually performed the most wonderful "Making Gong Dafa" for modern people's view of love. It has moved countless young people and made a clever excuse for the confusion of modern love. Someone commented that the film uses post-modern techniques to dissolve meanings of all things, but only preserves love. ()

    When I was young, I really didn't like Zhou Xingchi. I felt messy and messy, but when I grew up, I felt sad every time I watched it, and cried every time I watched it. He really talked about love here, talked about his responsibility, talked about all the helplessness and powerlessness of the world.

    When Zixia drifted towards the sun and Qitian Great Sage left the city gate, she cried and became a fool. How lucky you are to step on the colorful auspicious clouds to be your hero, how sorry you can't protect you for life. Do you like Jingjing five hundred years ago, or Zixia who gave her three moles; like the supreme treasure who dares to love and hate without restraint, or Monkey King who puts on a curse and curses the image of a dog? Whether the proposition of love is out of space, I am afraid it still has to be handed over to the Moonlight Treasure Box.
