'Ne Zha 2' Review: A24 Brings Chinese Blockbuster Animation to the West

If you’re keyed into movie news, you might have heard about a Chinese animated film breaking box-office records. That feature is Ne Zha 2, a sequel to 2019’s Ne Zha by director Jiaozi (the professional name of animator Yang Yu) that follows an ostracized demon child who must challenge prophecy and choose between good and evil. As of this writing, it's made $1.89 billion worldwide, making it the highest-grossing animated film, the highest-grossing Chinese film and the highest-grossing non-English-language film of all time. Now, it's getting a U.S. theatrical re-release from A24.
