Reviews
The White Haired Witch of Lunar Kingdom received largely negative reviews upon release. On Rotten Tomatoes, it holds a critics' rating of 13%, reflecting widespread criticism of its screenplay and pacing. Many reviewers highlighted that despite Fan Bingbing's captivating presence and the film’s impressive visual effects, the story was often seen as convoluted and lacking emotional depth. The film’s IMDb rating of 5.3/10 also signifies mixed to negative audience reception. Critics from major outlets like The Hollywood Reporter noted that while the movie had moments of stylistic beauty, it fell short in narrative coherence and character development. Metacritic scores reflected similar sentiments, pointing to a disconnect between the film's ambitious themes and its execution. Nonetheless, some viewers appreciated the film’s aesthetic ambition and the performances, particularly Fan Bingbing’s portrayal of the titular witch, as a highlight in an otherwise uneven epic.
