Zhou Tong, a constable in Luosha Town, has been obsessed with Wuyin Clan since childhood. He lived a peaceful life together with Zhou Shouyi, the magistrate of Luosha Town. Unexpectedly, they were framed by Jia Ming, the son of a squire in the township, and his father, Jia Youwei. Zhou Tong's father was wronged and jailed. Zhou Tong escaped fortunately. On the way, he met an elder of the Wuyin Clan who passed on the "Jia" in his body to Zhou Tong. Zhou Tong wanted to rescue his father with the power of "Jia", but could only watch his father be killed by the villain Bifang. (Source: iQIYI) Edit Translation

Not terrible!
First off - the title "Fantasy Magician" is misleading, and feels like an attempt not to get sued. Like mobile games named "Mining Creation", or "Floppy Birdie".This is an adaptation of the Thousand Faces of Dunjia, yes like the Yuen Woo Ping movie from 2017.
I thought the tendril demon and a creepy little person with clown makeup looked familiar, so I checked the Chinese name of this. And yep.
(the little clown is a reference, as far as I can tell, to the old adaptation - Miracle Fighters, where a creepy little clown lives inside a jar. And MF is by far the most entertaining of these three movies, and has two sequels even!)
I'll just quickly compare this to the YWP 2017 film.
- the story is simplified, it feels more compact and understandable.
- the actors are not as good, but the characters have some development.
- the CG and production value seems cheaper, but still very watchable.
Overall this is a fun, if forgettable little movie about the Avengers, wait no, about the Power Rangers...no, about secret demon hunters fighting aliens. Fighting demons. Yes.
It's ok.
