Movie Review: EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE...

The theatrical poster for EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE.

I watched the sci-fi/adventure flick Everything Everywhere All at Once at AMC theaters several hours ago, and needless to say, it deserves to be hugely recognized by the Academy Awards next year...like Parasite was in 2020!

Michelle Yeoh and Jamie Lee Curtis were absolutely fantastic in this film—with them sharing the funniest moments in this movie. Three words: Hot dog hands!

And you know that Everything Everywhere All at Once is a very special flick when director/writers Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheinert featured a very insightful scene where Michelle Yeoh (as Evelyn Wang) and Stephanie Hsu (as Evelyn's daughter Joy) have a deep conversation about existentialism and the universe...while literally being two rocks sitting on a cliff in a desert. You need to watch this flick to see how great this scene is.

Everything Everywhere All at Once also had very cool action sequences that you would expect in a Michelle Yeoh movie. It's The Matrix, a Marvel film (with all the recent multiverse stuff) and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon all rolled into one.

As mentioned earlier, Everything Everywhere All at Once should receive some nominations at the Oscars next year—at least for Best Editing and maybe Best Original Screenplay.

And welcome back to the acting world, Ke Huy Quan! You may remember him as Short Round in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, as well as Data in The Goonies. Carry on.
