I watched a total of three movies last year and two of them sucked. I don’t think I’ve seen a movie so far this year, and I’m looking for suggestions. What’s a movie that you really love?

    Everything everywhere all at once is easily one of my favorite movies of all time. Pays a bunch of homages to action films and tropes. One of the few times in my life where I ugly cried and laughed at the same time.

      Everything, Everywhere, All At Once would definitely also be my recommendation. Because a kung fu comedy that’s also a sci fi thriller, a bilingual family drama that can switch languages multiple times per sentence, a Ratatouille parody, and a 10 minute silent shot of two rocks in a desert, that just SHOULD NOT WORK. The fact it does, and does brilliantly, with ten new directing ideas every minute and a climax that leaves me in tears every time, borders on genius.

      I just saw a post in a different thread where someone called it the worst thing they’d ever watched.

      I loved it, but I could definitely see both sides. It was a weird movie. But great. And fun.

      If not for the papercuts, big agree. It could’ve been anything improbable. Why that. It did the job of making the audience uncomfortable but at what cost.
