I have to say that it is a very unique movie, which is attractive enough. I can't wait watching it again on Netflix!
The story is just like a history story that have really happened before. It seem a little strange at first, but when the crisis come, you'll forget it and feel immersed in it completely. I promise it'll be an unforgettable experience.
The space elevator is so great, and it is exactly the same as I thought. I really hope I can live until it really be built in reality world. By the way, I just wonder why US movies doesn't like it, as it only appears in Foundation on Apple TV (Maybe it's because I missed them unfortunately?) From my point of view, what imperfect is that the speed of story is too fast to render emotions perfectly, which makes it embarrassing when it comes to sad moments. In addition, it is a little tired to watch, as the movie scenes are always very impactful and the amount of information in the movie is too large for me to understand instantly.
Anyway, The Wandering Earth 2 is a special Chinese movie, which is worth trying.

This is a massive movie that has many many absolutely amazing scenes. I was really blown away, but after an hour I was finding it to be a bit too much intensity and it was becoming a bit exhausting. Still very impressive. I found I was not interested in the human drama built into the story. I don't know why the dubbed English parts were so odd. There is a lot of dialogue you have to read subtitles for that is going quickly but there is so much action you end up missing something no matter where you look. Overall this movie is a wild ride but just started to feel like too much of a good thing if that makes sense.
This one is better than the first movie, which is very rare these days. The story lines are great. Although there are some plots that do not make a lot sense, it doesn't affect the overall rating at all. It doesn't make me feel it's a 3hr movie at all. This is actually the best Si-Fi movie I have watched in the last 3 years (and I've watched a lot lol) and I think it's fair to say it's better than 70% of the Hollywood Si-Fi movies these days.
I'm looking forward to the third one now given there are some flash forward scenes hinting at the next story line. Also, don't miss the credits at the end. I left early and have to read up on the end credit scenes online afterwards.

Watched this last night and my head is still spinning, can't give too much away as my brain hasn't fully processed what was going on.
The only way I can describe it is when they were editing the film all the scenes where their was no action were cut leaving a bombardment of visuals, this included the non dubbed version with English subtitles flashing up on screen so fast it was hard to read.
Don't get me wrong TWE2 is a great film and really good fun if you love your big bold Si-fi with huge special effects, limited character development and explosions.
Thoroughly recommended 👌 Roll on TWE3.

Earth 2 has no ridiculous young man to do stupid things like in Earth 1, characters do the best to solve problems. Performers did their best in characterizing, and the story makes the Wandering Earth Project more reasonable. But personally, it has some cons:
1. Obvious post dubbing. Many characters talk in different mouth shapes, especially the black boy like he was talkin English but pronounced the others. These scenes quite disturb the watching.
2. The data and the effects of Earth Engines seems not right. It's not spoilers but if you started Earth suddenly you should have massive earthquakes, huge tsunamis and weather disasters... Oh I'm going to spoil so I have to shut now. Hope you've watched Earth1.
3. You got VR tec android but you ummmm why don't you guys create more operating bots? Oop I didn't spoil I'm talking about the trailers.
Still, I will give 7.5/10 for this movie. Hope they can fix cons and do well in the next. This gonna be a great series.
