I'm weirdly proud of China for being able to make their own Geostorm.
Les_VampiresBilled as China’s first true sci-fi blockbuster, Frant Gwo’s ridiculously profitable (and borderline unwatchable) “The Wandering Earth” tells the story of a cursed future in which the sun has become unstable, and humanity’s only hope for survival are the 10,000 jet engines…
davidehrlichMay 8, 2019Even more absurd than most Emmerich disasterpieces, with the DIRTY DOZEN-esque band of misfits on a massive CG-enhanced suicide space mission of ARMAGEDDON mixed in, and honestly it's as tasty as that sounds, all enlivened by a pretty refreshing spirit of collectivism. This…

what if armageddon but more
karen h.Jul 26, 2023Disaster on a massive scale. A band of unlikely heroes on a suicide mission. The 2.8 average Letterboxd score kinda surprises me. There's a lot to love here and there's something about these disaster "world ending/fight for survival on a massive scale" films that attracts…
George CarmiMay 5, 2019Wenn Square Enix alle jemals gedrehten Katastrophenfilme als zwei Stunden Final Fantasy-Zwischensequenz inszeniert hätte, im Weltraum, mit noch mehr Kitsch und Pathos und gleich sechs Drehbuchautoren, die sich das generelle Verständnis von Physik, Logik und…

China's first science-fiction blockbuster, based on Cixin Liu's short story, is full of spectacle — huge crowds of people struggling to cope with catastrophe, a city frozen in a giant block, up to the tops of the skyscraper, Jupiter looming over Earth, about to suck the…
Tasha RobinsonFeb 8, 2019Brilliant. America don’t feature at all, a biracial identifies as Chinese, Indians all wear turbans, Russians are our only friends and we, the mighty and proud Chinese, save the dying planet. 🇨🇳 起來！ 2019 Added.
Daniel CarolanMay 14, 2019I can't believe I let the locals trick me into thinking this movie is worth my time, it's actually mind-blowing how boring it is. Only thing memorable about it is when this space marine dude got so frustrated at Jupiter (the whole damn planet) and starts unloading all his…

10/10 This movie was just wayyyy too good. the action is absolutely amazing, the cgi is out of this world, and it’s just a tad bit funny. i loved it🫶🏽
Reuben Parnell dislikedThe Wandering EarthSo humanity was smart enough to maintain human civilisation whilst moving the earth but couldn’t account for Jupiter’s gravitational pull? And then the solution is to blow Jupiter up? This movie is so stupid lmao
Rick likedThe Wandering EarthGreat visual effects, and a really interesting premise. Too bad it kind of went downhill towards the end. Still, worth the Watch.

Intense science fiction film with both action and the feels. Very well produced. Liu Cixin is a genius.
DYDing YueyangA Great chinese sci-fi movie, I, as a chinese, felt proud of it. And thank to these peoples made the movie from my hometown available from such far away.
TWTianran WangI’m not a fan of sci-fi so I can’t comment on the sci-fi part. I really love the story telling, moving and inspiring. I couldn’t stop crying, probably I’m just being homesick. My friends found subtitle is kinda hard to follow though

TCTommy ChenThe constant zooming out camera work is annoying and very amateurish
GGGerri GerriReally amazing special effects!

Perhaps no other movie has better illustrated the golden rule of CGI: Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.

A week after seeing The Wandering Earth, I'm still marveling at how good it is. I can't think of another recent computer-graphics-driven blockbuster that left me feeling this giddy because of its creators' can-do spirit and consummate attention to detail.

No matter how familiar the plot beats feel, that level of attention not just to functional special effects, but to outright beauty, makes The Wandering Earth memorable.
