Journey to the West

His personal life a shambles and his low-end space exploration magazine close to shuttering, aging Beijing nerd Tang Zhijun (Yang Haoyu) never gave up hope on finding proof of extraterrestrial life. Finding online reports of UFO sightings in Sichuan, he ventures to the Southwest with an eccentric pack of hangers-on-and the journey might provide answers beyond the ones he was seeking. Clever fantasy-farce also stars Ai Liya, Wang Yitong, Jiang Quiming. 118 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: Mandarin; Subtitles: English; featurettes; theatrical trailers. In Mandarin with English subtitles.
