I'm actually rather pumped to see this children's flick.
Will letcha know what I think after!
It's got some serious bona fides as China's biggest blockbuster in history.
The version that dropped today is the English-dubbed version.
P.S. Okay, just saw it. First off, some factoids: Ne Zha 2 is the highest‑grossing animated, non‑English‑language film in history—earning over $2.2 billion USD on an $80 million budget. Five years in the making, Ne Zha 2 required more than 4,000 artists from 138 animation studios to create. In short, INSANE.
That said, we did not enjoy it.
Sure, it's a huge and impressive spectacle, but on the whole we were bored. Maybe mostly kids enjoy it?
