Everything, Everywhere, All at once.

 *


- Everything, Everywhere, All at once. (2022. Dirs. Daniel Kwan & Daniel Scheinert)


The Wangs are a struggling Chinese-American family, currently dealing with several issues —overwork, family conflict, IRS audits, and a treat from the Multiverse itself. 


Skeptical at first, then darkly amused, horrified, and finally determined, family matriarch Evelyn must journey through the multiverse to find what she needs to confront the ultimate evil that has taken ahold of Joy —her own daughter. They must learn to experience —everything, everywhere, all at once. 


Excellent movie that does not fit neatly into a single genre, taking a bit of everything. Family drama, Sci-fantasy, Adventure, Comedy… bit of philosophy, of meta-cinema, of over-the-top humor and understated tragedies… In sort, an Experience!!


A rare high-concept film that managed to win the sympathy of both critics and audiences, not to be missed.
