You should watch this movie...
Just returned from the cinema, and this was more than worth the ridiculous amount of money it costs to see a movie these days!! Marvel eat your heart out, the sheer amount of ideas and concepts in this movie are off the chart. <3
Darcy's comment: 'It's playing with the basic concept of premise in the midst of infinity. Also Nietzsche can go f•ck himself.'
I think it's described as a sc-fi drama comedy, which is about right. Also definite HHGTTG vibes. There is a lot of silliness, which is lovely.
(Shorter pitch: Michelle Yeoh + multiverse)
To summarise: It's really, really, clever, but with heart. The advice I picked up was: Read/watch nothing beforehand, go in blind and just get blown away. I will repeat this advice.
ETA: Tried to find it, and yes, it was Neil Gaiman! :)
I just saw Everything Everywhere All At Once. See it in a cinema if you can. See it knowing nothing if you can. Best, most wonderful film I’ve seen in ages. Thank you A24 Films for screening it for me. Thank you to everyone who made it. Thank you Michelle Yeoh for existing. pic.twitter.com/5Gd4UQ6s3z
