Ne Zha is 90 minutes of merch-tie-in with a story bolted on as a legal afterthought.

Watched Ne Zha so you don't have to. You're welcome.

Even the popcorn looked bored during Ne Zha.

Ne Zha: proof the studio reads its own marketing too literally.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Ne Zha?

Everyone praising the Ne Zha performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.

Hot Take: Ne Zha's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece

Look, I wanted to love Ne Zha. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

Unpopular opinion: Ne Zha is the most overrated film of the decade

Just got out of Ne Zha and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.
