《The Wandering Earth》片段
《流浪地球》上映已過一周，票房已破20億，成為了現象級的中國首部大型科幻電影。該片在全球著名影評網站IMDb上也獲得了8分的高分，實現了票房口碑的雙豐收。除了韓媒眼紅「酸溜溜」，該部電影大獲各國外媒好評。
The story takes place in an apocalyptic future where, as the sun dies, the world government decides to physically move Earth away from destruction and embark on a centuries-long voyage to a new solar system. But humanity is threatened with annihilation almost immediately, when scientists discover that Earth is on an apparent collision course with Jupiter.

《The New York Times》：China's Film Industy Finally Joins the Space Race
The country’s first blockbuster set in space, 「The Wandering Earth,」 opens Tuesday amid grandiose expectations that it will represent the dawning of a new era in Chinese filmmaking.
It is one in a series of ambitious,big-budget films tackling a genre that, until now, has been beyond the reach of most filmmakers here — technically and financially.
《Forbes》：Box Office：'The Wandering Earth' Is China's First Big-Budget Sci-Fi Blockbuster
While the focus is (obviously) on Chinese heroes and the Chinese government (it is implied that America was not involved in this global effort, make of that what you will), the film is nowhere near as jingoistic as Wolf Warrior 2 or as nationalistic as Universal/Comcast and Legendary's The Great Wall.
If China can make movies like this for themselves, they won't need Hollywood imports as much. This is where China has been heading for the last several years.
China is big enough and movie-hungry enough to support their own stuff along with various Hollywood biggies. But as Chinese productions get bigger, the mere notion of a Hollywood blockbuster, especially a somewhat generic affair meant to play globally with minimal fuss, will be significantly less special.

For starters, Americans make no appearance in the entire film, though the US is still a member of the Earth government’s leadership. Perhaps this is inspired by the fact that since 2016, America has threatened to or actually withdrawn from a number of international agreements, and has demanded her allies pay for US troop presence. Maybe in an not-so-farfetched future, America would demand that the world pay for American scientists to save the world — and the world simply decided not to pay.
It was also refreshing to see other countries playing a part alongside China — Russian, French, Indian, and Indonesian crews also make an appearance in The Wandering Earth. Ultimately, in contrast to American apocalypse flicks where Americans seem to save the world unilaterally, people from different countries come together to save the world — and multilateral consensus is required throughout the film, reflecting a message that the Chinese government has been pushing in real world affairs.
《The Verge》：China's blockbuster The Wanding Earth is rich , gorgeous ， and goofy
We’re living through a fascinating era of rapid change for the blockbuster movie model. America producers, eager to get their $200 million movies into the lucrative Chinese market, are increasingly looking for Chinese production partners, shooting in Chinese locations, and adding China-friendly characters and plotlines to American movies, even including extra scenes just for the Chinese cuts of films. But simultaneously, China and other countries are moving toward the blockbuster model themselves, creating homegrown films that don’t need to involve American partners at all.
It shows a new side of Chinese filmmaking — one focused toward futuristic spectacles rather than China’s traditionally grand, massive historical epics.
None of these things will be inherently alien to American viewers, who may experience The Wandering Earth as a best-of mash-up of past science fiction films, just with less-familiar faces in the lead roles. But as China gets into the action-blockbuster business, it』ll continue to be fascinating to see how the country brings its own distinctive voices and talents into a global market.
人們都在把《流浪地球》的特效與好萊塢相比，但與好萊塢科幻大片不同的是，拯救地球不只是美國一家的事了，這次是中國人在危急關頭帶領全世界參與救援行動。影片中還有個細節，逆轉地球命運的最後一戰，各國救援隊到達順序是按照汶川地震的救援隊到達順序來的，可見用心。
《流浪地球》劇照
《流浪地球》最大的成就在於解決了一個困擾中國科幻電影多年的難題：如何將中國人和中國元素不違和地融入科幻設定中。這是一個歷史性的接受美學問題，跟科幻類型的舶來品源頭有關，也與觀眾長期形成的審美習慣有關。
《流浪地球》中的中國人和中國元素真正做到了基本不雷、不尬，不囧，從最小的標識符號、器具細節，到末日後的中國城市景觀、地下城春節，再到中國人成為救世英雄，中國「歸鄉」情節的普世化升華，無不自然流暢，服務於主題故事，又讓觀者能夠產生結構性的文化共鳴與審美體驗，這真的是不下一番苦功夫，光模仿歐美科幻片皮毛必然是無法做到的。我們終於有了真正屬於中國人自己的科幻商業大片，以中國人所熟悉的情感結構與審美方式去講述一個關於科技、時空、文明的人類命運共同體的故事。
