Rating: 4.0/5.0 |
CHICAGO – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com appears on “The Morning Mess” with Scott Thompson on WBGR-FM (Monroe, Wisconsin) on January 19th, 2023, reviewing “New Gods: Yang Jian” another in a series of animated features by director Ji Zhao. In select theaters beginning January 20th.
Thirteen years after the god Yang Jian imprisoned his sister beneath a mountain, the once powerful god now scrapes by as a penniless bounty hunter. When a mysterious woman hires him for a new job, Yang Jian soon finds himself chasing down Chenxiang, his long-lost nephew, who in turn is in search of the magical lotus lantern that will free his Ma (and Jian’s sister), even if it will bring catastrophe. But a number of dangerous vigilantes are seeking the same treasure … that has the power to alter the balance of their worlds.
