A film definitely deserving of it's title. Everything Everywhere All at Once is a film so obscure, so insane, and so genius that I can't even comprehend how someone was able to make this. For starters the movie does not look cheap, even with a relatively small budget of 25 million the film looks like it was made with a budget of more than 100 million. The biggest surprise I think people will notice when they watch this is how well choreographed the action scenes are, they literally look like something out of the "Raid" films. And combined with some of the smoothest editing since "Whiplash" it makes for one of the most entreating films out there.
The title isn't kidding when it says, Everything Everywhere All at Once. This film literally does Everything Everywhere All at Once. Weather it be hot dog hands, pinky fists, talking rocks, sumo Jamie Lee Curtis, evil bagels, or even ratatouille, it literally does everything. And goes everywhere weather is be jail, deserts, dojos, cult rooms, or even an IRS building, it goes everywhere. And the fact that the film has over a dozen different plots in different universes it still somehow manages to work and not feel messy or confusing.
Besides all the good about Everything Everywhere All at Once is really a film that can really test the limits of what can be in a movie and how far you can push ideas. I really wish I saw this in theaters but sadly the film isn't releasing where I live so I had to watch it on iPhone quality, but luckily it didn't away the experience.
10/10
