Nezha: Mo tong nao hai

"Nezha 2" is nothing short of a cinematic gem, and it's clear that every second of its five-year production was well spent. I went into the theater with my mom, initially worried that she might not enjoy an animated film, especially since she hadn't seen the first installment. But to my surprise, she was completely blown away! By the end, she kept repeating, 'This is so (breathtaking)! '

The film strikes a perfect balance between humor and heartfelt moments, making it easy for anyone to connect with the story. While the stunning visual effects have already been widely praised, what truly impressed me was the film's impeccable pacing. Not a single moment felt wasted-every scene served a purpose, and every line of dialogue was meaningful. I often find myself frustrated when movies drag on with filler scenes, but "Nezha 2" kept me fully engaged for the entire two-plus hours. The seamless blend of storytelling and jaw-dropping visuals made this one of the most enjoyable animated films I've ever seen, not just in China, but globally.

Without a doubt, "Nezha 2" deserves a spot among the top three animated films in the world. A must-watch for any animation fan!"

I had no plan to watch any Chinese films released during the Spring Festival period this year at first, but one of my friends invited me to watch this film. So I was finally in the cinema. When asked what did I expect the film to bring to me by my friend, I said, no, no expectation of a normal Chinese movie at all. However it turned out that this film went beyond my wildest expectation.

A film may be called a good film if it contains a part that it did a great job in, and a film is marvelous if it did everything perfectly, which is the case of Ne Zha 2. This film not only told a good story, it also told the story well.

The story developed in a reasonable way, and I like the way it presents a surprising twist, because you would be reminded of a previous scene that hinted at the twist when there is a twist.

What's more, as a man who used blender to creat some short videos before, I can tell that this film also did a great job in its visual effects. It perfectly delt scenes with a large amount of people, and the way different characters move when having a combat in the air broke the mindset of horizontal movement. Other special effects are great too.

To sum up, this is a wonderful piece of art.

One of the best animated epics thats come out within the last few years. Ne Zha 2 does an incredible job being a sequel; which is a tough ask! You're instantly hit with the visuals and the creative team did an amazing job animating every last sequence. The storytelling and the incorporation of chinese mythology elavates the immersion factor. Its light hearted mixed with intense emotions. Highlighting philosophical ideologies; yin & yang. The movie doesn't shy away from its more adult humor/content. An overall good mix of enternainment and seriously good!

For parents who are interested in taking their family; please be aware that the movie tackles on a lot of deeper content. I've noticed that there hasn't really been an age rating for the movie out yet on google. The movie has adult humor, fighting, action, and blood. Please keep this in mind before taking kids to see. Its also currently subtitles only, no dub.

Fantastic movie, 10/10 gotta watch it.

All i can say is this movie is an absolute cinema, hands down one of the best (probably the best) animated movie ive ever watched in my life. I just watch it yesterday and hopefully ill watch it again next week, cant wait for next week to rewatch this absolute masterpiece. This movie is so good, to the point where i ask all my friend and my gf to watch it. If any of you who read this review is uncertain whether or not u should watch it, you should, YOU MUST WATCH IT. IT WILL FEEL DIFFERENT IF U WATCH IT AT HOME, GO WATCH IT AT CINEMA WITH A HUGE SCREEN. ONLY HUGE SCREEN WILL DO THIS MOVIE JUSTICE.

Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce you to China's new all-time cinematic box office champion (top 10 worldwide as I write) with a staggering $1.6 billion generated mostly from Chinese theaters within a span of 17 days and still rising as it reaches international audiences, Ne Zha 2. As overhyped as I was before watching the movie due to the milestone it signifies, I was still pleasantly not disappointed.

My biggest complaint it that the film gives too much of everything: too much comedy, too much suspense, and too much action that we rarely have time for substantive emotional development. Besides that, the movie is a roller coaster of heightened emotion that free falls nonstop through toe-clenching fight sequences, mesmerizing world building, and countless intricate and diversely driven characters. Individualistic heroism proves very much futile in this society of hidden rules and unspoken bigotry, as every being lives to avenge their own justice. Thus the world of Ne Zha is horrifyingly realistic and incredibly engaging.

The aesthetics of the film also stands apart, taking modern adaptations of classical characters, designs, costumes, settings, and stories overall. Fusion of kung-fu and naturalistic sceneries with anime-like choreographs and cinematic shots makes the combat sequences truly blood-boiling. Based on videos I watched analyzing the movie's artistry, the amount of attention to detail the production gives in portraying the traditional artifacts, needlework, and weaponeering is impeccable.

Overall, Ne Zha 2 represents more than an outstanding animation and more than an industrial miracle.
