Chinese film Ne Zha 2 surpasses Titanic's box office record
A new movie, Ne Zha 2, has made over $2 billion at the box office. It is now set to surpass Titanic’s record. This film is the first non-American and non-British movie to join the list of the Top 50 highest-grossing films ever. Only six other films have reached the $2 billion mark before this one, joining popular titles like Avatar and Avengers. Ne Zha 2 is a Chinese animated fantasy adventure. It was released in China at the end of January and has earned over $2.1 billion worldwide. This makes it the highest-grossing non-English language film of all time. It is also now the most successful animated movie ever, surpassing Pixar's Inside Out 2. The movie just opened in UK cinemas this past weekend. Its unique visual style has caught people's attention. Some critics have noted that the film reflects Chinese patriotism, leading to debates about its themes. Certain scenes are said to contain anti-American symbols, including one where a character is in a palace that resembles the White House. The story follows Ne Zha, a demon child raised by humans, who is predicted to cause destruction but must choose between good and evil. The sequel continues his journey as he searches for an elixir to help his friend, a dragon prince. Ne Zha 2 is currently in cinemas in the UK.
