The Feel Good Part

Some viewers may find the movie boring as the concept is not unique and being interesting would not be enough to gather an audience. Those who are not fans of fantasy action may also find this unbearable because the movie surrounds that action flick theme.
In-Depth Analysis
Maoshan is a movie that has been incredibly made. The production seems like a large-scale piece, the CGI is good enough and the special after effects are seriously so exciting. The storyline is interesting but I won’t call it good, it is complicated. The complex plot and constant introduction of characters one by one is confusing and never-ending. The movie gets a bit repetitive by the end but it is still a good watch. It is a one-time watch, pretty easy on the mind for those who love fantasy action flicks but a bit boring on the extreme side for those who are aversive of anything to do with dramatic action sequences.
Star Power
The cast of this movie is commendable, from di Liu to Zhang dong, everybody has done a good job with their acting and complimented the complex storyline by adding twists to their characters.
Overall Opinion
Overall, the movie is an interesting and fun easy watch. Viewers should give this movie a try, they might even love it.
