Dynamo Michelle Yeoh stars as a loyalist who attempts to keep the King's empire from being overthrown by a revolutionary group.

Monkey Goes West, the first film in the series, is the film that introduces the world to the viewer and sets up all the recurring characters — the Tang priest (Ho Fan), who is on a holy pilgrimage to India to collect scriptures, and his motley trio of companions. The focus is squarely on the journey, however — unlike the novel (or the Japanese TV series) we don’t see any of Monkey’s exploits before he’s imprisoned under a mountain by the Buddha. Instead, the first we see of him is his first encounter with the priest, as he entreats him to free him from the rock and make him his disciple. Further on their way they collect a Dragon Prince, who becomes the priest’s horse as penance for eating the original one; Pigsy (Peng Peng), the disgraced Marshal of Heaven who becomes the second disciple; and Friar Sand (Tien Shun), a water demon who also becomes a disciple. Yueh Hua does an excellent job as the Monkey King in what was probably quite a tough assignment, taking on such a beloved character in only his second feature.

A greedy developer has placed huge machines to suck dry a part of the ocean near Tokyo so he can put luxury condos there. After a storm, a giant egg washes up on the beach nearby and is immediately put on public display. The developer’s plans go awry when he disrupts Godzilla’s rest and the monster goes stomping through Tokyo again. It’s up to the elderly Mothra, and then to its two offspring, to save Tokyo from destruction.

On the set of a dark war time drama at an old movie studio, a young director, Toshio Murai (Yanagi), is trying to complete his debut film. The two starring actresses, Hitomi Kurokawa and Saori Murakami, play sisters in his film. Murai has a crush on Hitomi (Shiroshima), the seasoned leading actress, and keeps a photo of her by his bed. The younger and less experienced actress, Saori (Ishibashi), is annoying and likes to have recess on the set. The production of the movie is consistently interrupted by strange occurrences and the cast and crew begin to get spooked.
