Boring, long, and too preachy.

If this would be called a total piece of crap, then why did they do it ? They worked on this to make it worth entertaining though. And that's the bright side.
P.S. I like the movie.

After seeing the low IMDb rating and reading the bad reviews, I was expecting this movie to be another CGI mess like "10000 Years Later" (How that movie managed to have a higher score than this one will be always a mystery for me) with bad animation and a muddled plot...But it actually turned to be a pretty decent fantasy flick.The CGI for this movie was quite well made. Some scenes were very impressive and in certain aspects, more pleasant to look than many animated movies from the big studios (And by "big studios", I mean specifically Illumination Entertainment) Of course, there were a couple of moments when the movie looked a bit like cut-scenes from a video game, but the overall result was nice.The plot on the other hand, while being a bit clichéd, managed to be reasonably entertaining to watch, at least until the last minutes, where things start to get confusing and the dynamics between the characters become unnecessarily complicated. Even worse, there is no resolution to the main conflict, but since this apparently was inspired by a series of novels, I guess that all the loose ends from the plot will be eventually tied up by any future sequel. (At least, that's it what I hope.)This movie was okay. It was much better than "10000 Years Later" in every aspect, and honestly I don't know why it gets so much undeserved hate here on IMDb.

Guo is a director who has nothing but awful reputation. This movie is a totally crap. You'd better spend your money on junk food because they are not junk comparing to this movie. After watching this movie I feel shame to come from the same country with Guo. After making another disappointing series "Tiny Time", Guo made this expensive 200 million crap again. I don't know why Chinese investors would spend their money on movie like this. Making gabage movie is fine. However Guo even plagiarize, or you can use the term copy, the plot from another Japanese cartoon "Fate". What a shame! This movie ranks even worse in China. So remember this, you see Guo in the producers list, better stay away.

All I have to say is, people are too harsh on the CGI and even the story. The only part in the story that I have complaints for is the part where the rampant soul beasts storm into Reyes and they all happen to be lizards or scorpions. First-off, they apparently came from under the sea, so that didn't make much sense. I never read the book, but something just doesn't align about that. Other than that, it was a pretty good fantasy movie that left me curious about the original book and wanting to watch part 2 when it comes out. What's up with the priests? Is Yin Chen's lord dead or alive? What happens to Lotus now? I want more! Lastly, I was actually happy that they decided to do this movie pure CGI and with actors, it made the story more immersive and the setting more fantasy. There's some faces I know already, but with the CGI, I was able to forget who is the actor and tap into the character better. With Chinese films of this genre that has no background in any historical or real-life setting, I think I prefer it being this way for lots of reasons. I think it was a good choice and the result was good.
