Could have sworn someone talked about Everything Everywhere All at Once on this page but I could be mistaken. Watched it tonite and it was thoroughly enjoyable.
If had to complain about something, (I think this was even mentioned in the other post by someone), it was the rapid-fire language swapping dialogue between the characters. I mean it's 100% realistic to see how the Wang family talks to each other dipping in and out of Chinese and English. Part of my family is 2nd Gen Mexican-American and they do that all the time. But it was really fast and sort of discombobulating when trying to get all the dialogue in my earballs.
Still though, 4/5 stars. Michelle Yeoh once again proves she's awesome. I had no idea it was written/directed by the same dudes that did Swiss Army Man, which I rather enjoyed as well.
Also wik, last night I watched Misery with the missus. I'd never seen it, though I knew what it was about because it's been nearly 35 years so how could I not by now. But it was really great. I always really liked Kathy Bates because of Fried Green Tomatoes, but she was awesome as Annie Wilkes. Very rad movie. 5/5 for me.
