    Everything Everywhere All at Once

    ★★★★½

    What a wacky, ridiculous, beautiful, dramatic film about the existential crisis all humans go through and the power of love to get humanity through any darkness. Everyone in the cast did fantastic. What was truly impressive, however, was the direction. I hope we see much more of the Daniels.

    Scream 6 is pretty good! Slow in parts, but the film keeps the energy going with some fantastic NYC sequences. I’ve loved how these last two installments have dealt with the subject of trauma. Let’s hope Neve Campbell is back in the next one, though. Her absence was def felt.

    More of this, Neil. Less Chappie.

    "Wonder Woman" is not only the best DCEU film so far, it's a fantastic film on its own merits. It hardens back to classic action adventure films.

    Does it drag in spots? Sure. Is the third act a bit too bombastic? Sure.

    However, these are small criticisms in a movie that's largely fantastic. The movie is layered with the harsh truths of this world but also a lovely veil of compassion and love.

    Patty and Gal, thank you for this.
