Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022) 97% Fresh 0

My wife and I saw this one in the theatre last night.  Had never heard of it until yesterday, but this turns out to be the wildest combination imaginable of your favorite Kung Fu movie + The Matrix + a healthy dose of Monty Python sight gag absurdity.  And the movie with the biggest heart I've encountered in a long time.  We both really liked it.

Amazing!

You don't see RT scores like this every day:

That looks quite fun! Never heard of it.

I have seen a lot of movies in my time. 

I mean, a lot.

But I can truly say this movie hit me with some absolutely insane stuff I have never seen before.  

Also quite liked it, but, man.  They went places....

Also!  It has the kid who played Short Round in Temple of Doom and Data in the Goonies!  All grown up.  It's apparently like his first movie in 20 years, and he was great.

This had been recommended to me by several people. Saw it yesterday with low expectations, and it was phenomenal!

Highly recommended. As noted above, strong Matrix vibes - and I don't remember the last time I was in a theater where *everyone* laughed so much.

Really good.

And - if it needed any additional geek cred (it doesn't) - the Russo Bros. are credited as producers.

‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’ becomes A24’s highest-grossing hit ever

Quote

Over the past few months, we’ve written quite a bit about Daniels’ “Everything Everywhere All at Once” starring Michelle Yeoh, and a lot of that has to do with the fact that the movie has become quite a breakthrough box office hit for distributor A24. On Saturday, May 21 the movie officially became A24’s highest-grossing hit ever, having surpassed the $50.02 million made by the Safdies’ “Uncut Gems” starring Adam Sandler.

Weird but wonderful film. With some off-the-wall scenes that in the end come together wonderfully.

What the Doctor Strange 2 concept should have resulted in travelling across different dimensions.

[I like pie]

It was enjoyable but a bit, "too out there" for me. I expected more with the reviews so high.

[AGGIEZ]

Absolutely LOVED this movie! It was off the wall in parts, but I left the movie with all the feels. Definitely worth the watch.

I'm glad this movie has finally leaked online so I can share my pain with others.

My girlfriend made me see this movie.

I was very envious of the people that walked out of the theatre early. She told me after that she also did not enjoy it.

I am not sure who this movie is made for but it is certainly not me. BTW the new Chip and Dale movie is so much better than this garbage.

[WolverineX]

Super weird.  Emotional warm undertones that I quite can't fully articulate.  But an experience I'm glad to have.

I just heard about this the other day and can't wait to see it.

[Rodey]

I enjoyed the message of the movie. Sure, it took me on a wild ride (hotdog fingers) to get there.

Been seeing more of this theme about how this movie handled the multiverse.

Ohh, is this the one about the mother  who gets kicked through multiple realities searching for her daughter? I saw a bit of it in some YouTube vid examining the science behind how Multiverses are portrayed in film. It looked interesting. It starred Michelle Yeoh.

Yup

Saw it a few weeks ago.  It was entertaining an great to see somebody is still trying to give us something new and different.  Feeds into my idea that we should be trying to make more small budget films, like this one at 25 million and making $103 million. Instead of the unsustainable model of only making $200 million budget block busters and hoping they get to $550 million before they start making money.
