Wandering earth and for the benefit of mankind were easily high 4 stars. These, I felt, held up in its short form and had strong moral themes.

The remaining ones were a drag with its underdeveloped plot lines and misogynistic characterisation (curse 5.0). There were little call backs and linked ideas -

earth 4 and the girl stuck in the core of the earth ended being a granddaughter of another character

- which was purposefully used to save undeveloped plots but that was not enough.
