Watched Everything Everywhere All At Once last night at a pal's house. He'd managed to download a copy from somewhere.

Wow. Amazing film. A bit slow to get going but after about 20 minutes its a roller coaster. Brilliantly funny and quite moving in equal amounts. Looks stunning too. Worth catching wherever or however you can.

Off to see this on the big screen this evening. Hope it's as good as the trailer and reviews make it out to be!

Saw this last night. Cinema was really busy which surprised me given it was a Thursday night.

I enjoyed it, the film didn’t take itself too seriously and it had the audience laughing out loud a few times.

I thought the story climax and the moral message towards the end was a bit weak/heavy handed but the majority of the film was an entertaining sci fi / comedy / martial arts/ fairy tale.

Watched this today at the cinema. Still have no idea what it's about and I couldn't explain the plot to anyone else if asked, but it's a fantastic production and overload for the senses for just over 2 hours

Just watched this tonight, it had passed me by. Utterly bonkers, in a good way. Quite amazed it got made, actually, some bits are so out there as far as main stream cinema goes. Lots of laughs, some clever, some pure bad taste, but as a whole the film is intelligent and expects you to keep up, no spoon feeding. Perhaps a little exhausting as it moves towards the end. Enjoyed it, it's good to see something so original amongst all the remakes.

Have avoided it purely based on the fact the title is something you give a crappy film.

I've recommended this widely to friends, and they all seem to have enjoyed it.

I agree with the comment above - that the 'tidying up' at the end was not necessary. Before that the film was very untidy indeed. (in a good way)

It's worth checking it out as it's now 'free' on Amazon Prime.

I liked it but it definitely wasn't perfect .. it did tend to go all over the place at times and go out of its way to be deliberately 'random' and appeal to the sense of disaffection that is popular in some sections of modern culture. You can tell its been written by a pretty young pair of 'trendy' writers.

But some good ideas in there and definitely not your typical formulaic film. As I said, on Prime so essentially free for many.

I really enjoyed it! - the only film in recent memory that I've watched more than once and would happily watch again.

I heard it was up for some recognition in the Oscars; I thought that the acting all round was really good, particularly the young lady that played the part of the daughter. Very emotive, I could feel her pain and angst.

Recommended!

I loved it , MIchelle Yeoh was wonderful (as usual ) , it was very funny and utterly bewildering . But who cares ? Better than super bloody heroes any day .
