A truly all-encompassing sequel best served alongside its predecessor, Ne Zha 2 is a technical and narrative triumph that exceeds expectations and further immortalizes the Chinese legend.

John Nugent

Empire Magazine

At once awe-inspiring, jaw-dropping, eye-rolling and head-scratching, this is animated cinema on a scale rarely seen. It doesn’t always hang together, but on its box-office achievements alone, Ne Zha 2 has earned a place with the immortals.

Rated: 3/5

Kevin Maher

Times (UK)

There’s soul too, and a deep sense of family, plus a poignantly symbolic sequence where a mother insists on embracing her son, even though his body is brutally pin-cushioned by a thousand glass spikes.

Rated: 4/5

If the story is Chinese, this rather token plea in favour of misunderstood outsiders and acknowledging difference feels pure Hollywood. But so overwhelming is the artistry, it barely matters.

Rated: 4/5

The gloriously unhinged fever dream of Ne Zha 2 is where the sacred meets the slapstick, and somehow, it just works. But above all, it makes the case that animation, in the right hands, can do absolutely anything.

You don’t have to look at its box office records to call this an animated achievement.

Rated: 9/10

Incredible story telling, visuals, fight and battle scenes - breathtaking and tear jerking all at once. Sometimes I would cry because of tragedy in the story, sometimes because it was so beautiful. Now I want to see it for a 3rd time!
