Ne Zha

If the movie, at times, feels exhausting, there are also painterly details to savor, like the flowing locks of a dragon or the shimmer of a seascape at sundown.

All those elements are a blast, but distract from where Ne Zha is most fun and most endearing, with the demon-child's loyal parents trying to work out how to keep him from darkness and eventual electrocution, leading to some sweet child-friendly message about fate and friendship. Plus Taiyi and his flying pig are just plain adorable.

Ne Zha has something vital to teach the American animation industry — about the glories of letting the dark side rip — but it’s also clear that Chinese animators, working under more restrictions than we have, have absorbed a great many of the breakneck freedoms of American pop culture. Let’s hope it’s the beginning of a beautiful symbiosis.

I enjoyed the jolt of strangeness delivered by this world of demons stalking the Earth. But the action is hit-and-miss.

Grafting familiar Disney and DreamWorks tropes onto a tapestry of traditional Chinese legend and lore (the plot is loosely based on a Ming Dynasty-era shenmo novel), the adventure entertains with a title character who could be the spawn of Chucky and Stitch, from “Lilo & Stitch.”

A computer-animated feature of bright hues, hectic action and only occasional charm.

This movie was well done! Great voice acting cast, animation, and a nice twist on the original story of Nezha. Outstanding!!!! I believe that everyone should watch this movie, and form your own experience on it

I'm watched some Chinese Animation, classic and some modern. Ne Zha is new LVL from me, accidentally found it and i'm so happy i'm watched it!=) Can recommed it to every one! So colourfull, nice jokes and mostly very beautiful story)) Hope for next movie.

The comedy is good, but the action made me fall asleep and the emotional moments fall flat.

The plot, which involves elements of Chinese mythology, could have been better if it weren't for the animated aesthetic that looks more like a video game; instead of bringing the viewer closer, it pushes them away.

A fun and well animated film marred only by the fact that is the protagonist is a homicidal jerk whos single selfless act is not enough to offset the widespread suffering, death, and destruction he intentionally causes to all those around him. The core theme of fighting against unjust fates can easily be re-interpreted as its OK to hurt others as long as you get to be yourself. And is a bit undercut as the film condemns the antagonist for having the exact same motivation w/ none of the flaws.
