Everything Everywhere All At Once is an absolute tour de force on every sense you could experience from a film. In spans of less than five minutes, you could experience laughter, joy, confusion, anger, depression, fear, etc. as the story tells itself. The visuals, camera work, acting, choreography, costumes, lighting, sound design, set designs, EVERYTHING are flawlessly executed. There isn't a single moment where the movie isn't screaming for your attention. Through all that noise, there is a very deep, relatable, and real story of generational trauma, finding yourself, dealing with your flaws, and fighting to be who you are and for your family to understand you for it. Daniels have wowed me before with Swiss Army Man, my favorite movie of 2016. And now this film is my favorite of 2022, and perhaps even if the last five years. Do yourself a favor and give yourself a night to watch through this film, chew on it, and ask yourself if you're living your best life. A beautifully masterful film, a true masterpiece of it's time for sure, and hopefully will inspire other generations in the future.
