You’ve got to see Everything Everywhere All at Once - it’s an awesome movie! I used to avoid it, thinking it was just another sci-fi film that got popular in theaters, but boy, was I mistaken. The story is really well-crafted, the visuals are stunning, the acting is top-notch, and it even tugs at your heartstrings unexpectedly. I watched it last night and was blown away. Seriously, don’t make the same mistake I did. Go ahead and give it a watch. I’d easily rate it 8.5/10, heck, maybe even a 9!
It’s a very polarizing movie for some reason. I really enjoyed it, so much that I’ve rewatched it a few times.
What I can’t understand it that some people absolutely fucking loathe the movie, just visceral hatred, and I’ve never seen a good explanation as to why this is.
Honestly, I loved the movie but certain hotdog related scenes were horrondous.
I didn’t get that, why were they horrendous?
They just made me super uncomfortable in a body-horror way.
Ah, got it, thanks!
A few of the relationship moments felt a bit jarring to the background and some people just bounced really hard off of that contrast. It wasn’t what they were expecting, and that can be very polarizing.
I enjoyed it, but wish some of the relationship moments were a but less hamfisted. Like the evil doughnut black hole thing was a clever idea, but it would have been more fun for me if it was revealed to be a doughnut in a less direct way. Someone I know hated that part enough to say "it was just a blatant relationship movie with a sci fi veneer’ which is accurate.
Not sure I would watch it again even though I liked it as there doesn’t seem to be more depth to discover on a rewatch.
Because people who want to watch a movie to escape from their daily lives don’t want to spend 90 minutes in the closet of a tax office.
That’s a pretty big mischaracterization of the movie.
Well then I guess my enjoyment of the movie was mischaracterized as boredom and discontent.
