This movie may not have the best production values, but given the time and circumstances under which it was made it is very impressive. Large parts have been done with rotoscoping (painting over live video footage). This was probably a money saver, and it gives the movie a bit of a weird touch.

I love the style of Sun Wukong (the Monkey King), he's basically a five-year-old with superpowers. The singalongs (with bouncing ball) are also very awsome.

Since there are no English subtitles for this movie I am working on an English translation at http://foolip.org/wiki/Princess_Iron_Fan, join to help out if you can!
