The Wandering Earth

2019 · 2h 6m · Science Fiction, Action, Drama

IMDb 5.9 Metacritic 57 RT 70%

The ambition is there—a planet-sized escape pod fleeing a dying star is a genuinely epic concept—but the mixed reviews tell you what you need to know: it's a visually ambitious mess that doesn't quite stick the landing. Watch it only if you're a sci-fi completist with patience for CGI spectacle over coherent storytelling.

Plot

When the Sun begins to expand in such a way that it will inevitably engulf and destroy the Earth in a hundred years, united mankind finds a way to avoid extinction by propelling the planet out of the Solar System using gigantic engines, moving it to a new home located four light years away, an epic journey that will last thousands of years.
