A list of statements: - If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would. - Must see isn't strong enough, required maybe? - Catharsis in human form - The most brilliant, important, impactful summation of the 2020 pandemic experience without saying the word pandemic once. - Bo Burnham is a genius, plain and simple, since he was a kid, and this is trademark evolution. - I haven't seen ANYTHING that better approaches the nuance of the last year than this magical piece of art. It breaks down every aspect in a clever mix of direct and indirect, to a smash of really phenomenal song writing mixed with inspired skits and surreal, heartbreaking, terrifying introspection to the depression, anxiety, and utter panic caused by isolation. - I just can't even with him. I'd follow him if he started a cult.

I'm sorry to say that I can't give this a better rating. The first Wonder Woman movie was wonderful and fit so well with a progressively changing super hero genre, but this one just didn't live up to what the first was able to do. It was too preachy and the premise wasn't sound enough. I think Kristen Wiig was an interesting choice for that role and it would have been nice to see more of her development and for there to be a better reason that she became Cheetah. As far as plot goes, it was a decent way to bring Chris Pine back, but it felt like fan service more than essential to the longterm story of Wonder Woman. I "wish" I could give this movie a better score.

This is perhaps the best show I have seen in a long time. Perfect blend of suspense and a continuous flow of secrets to uncover. Blown away by the acting and cinematography. The production does such a good job at selectively revealing information and deepening the characters. To good! Let the show go on!!
