The Monkey King will have to share his crown with Kung Fu Panda 2, and Sing 2 as they join the best animated movies on Netflix.
Although Netflix leans heavily on animated films from Sony Pictures Animation, DreamWorks Animation, and Universal Pictures, the streaming giant also has an impressive lineup of original animated movies. Earlier this summer, Netflix premiered Nimona to great acclaim, and now The Monkey King is making waves for its fantastic visuals and its updated take on a classic Chinese story.
After Monkey declares himself the Monkey King, a young girl named Lin volunteers to work as his assistant. However, Lin has a dark secret and the Dragon King is out for revenge on Monkey for stealing from him. And if Monkey isn’t careful, he may find himself alone during the fight of his life. Unfortunately, Wallace’s experiments unintentionally create the giant Were-Rabbit, who quickly terrorizes the town and makes Wallace and Gromit look like failures. Wallace’s rival, Lord Victor Quartermaine , uses this opportunity to discredit the duo. Meanwhile, Gromit’s investigation into the Were-Rabbit leads to a surprising culprit.
Puss’ last hope to reclaim his life of adventure is to find the legendary Wishing Star and reclaim the extra lives that he needs. However, many others want the Wishing Star as well, including some who may need it more than Puss himself. Although Chester tells Flint to take care of the problem on his own, he brings his girlfriend, Sam Sparks ; his monkey, Steve ; and their friends “Chicken” Brent McHale , Manny , and Earl Devereaux . However, it appears that Chester V has his own sinister agenda for the food replicator and its creations.
In a futuristic medieval world, Ballister is framed for murdering Queen Valerin . While forced to go on the run, Ballister is befriended by Nimona. She may be Ballister’s last ally in the kingdom, but Nimona is more than she seems. And her secret could destroy her newfound friendship with Ballister. A Cannes Film Festival darling praised for its beautiful visual achievement and compelling story, The Summit of the Gods is the rare adaptation of a Japanese manga series that does right by its source material — which was itself based on a 1998 novel by Baku Yumemakura. Fascinating and emotional, the film makes it tough not to be pulled along on the characters’ epic journey.
