Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022)

A) I would have liked it more had it kept a more comedic tone all the way through.
B) I would have liked it more had it been 20-30 minutes shorter. Setup and the seventeen climaxes could have been pared down.

Still my third favorite movie of the year (after Bullet Train and Top Gun), but then again there's not a lot of other options. (I still need to hunt down RRR, I suppose, but I hear that has its own issues with length and tone.)

I for one am shocked that this movie did not resonate with someone whose relationship with her mother is toxic.

Really enjoyed this movie, Had no expectations. Just the right mix of Silly and interesting.

Jamie lee Curtis getting Sausage Fingered was Chefs Kiss.

Wiped the floor with awards as expected.

Well deserved.

Think they deserved everything they won. Only exception is MAYBE Jamie Lee Curtis for supporting actress, but honestly it probably should've just gone to Stephanie Hsu anyways. I think Jamie got it for two reasons: One, she's hollywood royalty and she deserved something at some point, and two, she actually played a character completely different from herself. I don't pretend to know Stephanie Hsu, but she played it very human whereas Jamie Lee was more a caricature type character and best supporting wins LOVE character actors. Fucking weirdos that sell it.

Angela Bassett acted the best she could in BP2, but the movie was trash and even her acting her tits off couldn't save that movie. Hopefully she gets the Jamie Lee treatment down the road though, because she was the only person in BP2 who seemed like they knew what they were doing.

Sorry but acting with sausage fingers and butt plugs is a bit harder than just acting angry/regal/sad. Bassett can fuck off, the character was one dimensional. But an evil tax auditor turned loving lesbian, that's a story, that's fucking character development.

Funny going back to posts on page 1 from before the movie was released, and reading all the comments about how this movie was going to suck and be overly woke

Everything Everywhere All at Once stinks. If I wanted to watch a Chinese family have a schizophrenic break I’d ask for a free refill.

I'd say this was one of the better movie years in the past 5 years.

Every year, five buddies and myself compile our 20 favorite movies of the previous year and compile the lists into a top 20 overall. For 2022, our lists had a record low number of american films (note that it's not in perfect synch with the Oscars because our thing is based on release date in our city, so like, Licorice Pizza and Spencer were 2022 for us).
