Description

The story centres on a normal boy, Tom, who gets drawn into this world against his wishes when his eccentric grandmother who he lives within San Francisco's Chi­natown turns out to be the guardian of the phoenix egg.

When his grandmother perishes in battle and is spirited away in a ghost cart, Tom must apprentice with an unlikely mentor – a tiger, Mr. Hu – to learn ancient magic and become the egg's new protector. They team up with an unlikely band of exotic creatures, each representing a different sign of the Chinese zodiac, who can morph into human form while retaining their innate animal characteristics.

Critics Reviews:

  • “I admit we've seen this story a million times in a million forms, but I thought it was nicely done and funny when it meant to be.” – Andy Klein (Associated Press)
  • “The animation is less surefooted at the start in a prologue set in Hong Kong, but it quickly improves when the action shifts to San Francisco, gloriously re-created. The vocal cast is mighty impressive and includes the ever-busy Michelle Yeoh.” – Randy Myers (San Jose Mercury News)
  • “There’s no word on whether the rest of the trilogy is being considered for adaptation, but if so, it’s off to a solid start, with plenty of room for improvement.” – G. Allen Johnson (San Francisco Chronicle)
  • “Like a shop-bought char siu bao, it’s over-sweetened but moreish: Chinese-flavoured comfort food in cinematic form.” – Leslie Felperin (Guardian)
