My wife complains bitterly that she cannot go see the movie here in the Netherlands. According to [1],<p>> As there are currently no screening plans in Western European countries like the UK and France, some netizens have even spontaneously formed groups to travel to Greece for a screening.<p>Is this lack due to European movie distributors, or to the Chinese publisher?<p>[1] <a href="https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202502/1328274.shtml" rel="nofollow">https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202502/1328274.shtml</a>

I liked the 2019 <i>Nezha</i> even though it came across as a bargain-basement Dreamworks movie complete with fart jokes.<p>(Got a Blu-Ray set of an <i>Investiture of the Gods</i> TV series that allegedly had English subtitles but it doesn't. It's not like Japanese where I have 30% comprehension of the spoken language, I read Chinese better than I can understand it spoken but that's not saying much, I can pick out things like 来来来 (lái lái lái) which means 'come over' but that's about it.)
What's even more impressive is that they've done this with an 80M USD budget.<p>It is probably the movie with the highest ROI ever at ~25x (and counting).
