‘Everything Everywhere All At Once’ Review: Michelle Yeoh’s Insane Multiverse Comedy Lives Up to Its Name
With Everything Everywhere All At Once, Daniels is touching on many of the same concepts they tried to tackle with Swiss Army Man, just in a more bonkers way with a larger scope. Everything Everywhere has to be as nutso as it is to prove its point: when everything is possible, what truly matters? While the third act can occasionally seem weight down by Daniels’ script attempting to hit all the grander points they’re trying to make, it all comes together in the end if you’re willing to take the ride. On the way, Daniels explores the hopelessness of depression, the little miracles that truly make life worthwhile, how acts of kindness can be an extraordinary asset, and—most fitting to this film—how it’s OK to be a mess.
If Daniels had said they had spent the six years since Swiss Army Man filming Everything Everywhere All At Once and putting together this awe-inspiring world, it would make perfect sense. It’s rare that a film crams as much into it as this one does, yet without feeling overstuffed or ridiculous for the sake of being audacious. There’s a real determination and intention to every chaotic choice, a method to this madness that ultimately makes Everything Everywhere All At Once one of the most ambitious and ballsy films in recent years—maybe even ever. Daniels try to cram everything everywhere all at once into Everything Everywhere All At Once, and I’ll be damned, they accomplished that goal with brilliance and style. Read full review…
Everything Everywhere All At Once Review
The magic of Everything Everywhere All At Once is in its title — within it, you’ll find every genre, experience every emotion. It’s both a reflection of, and an oasis from, the incessant overstimulation of 21st-century life. So many films would collapse in on themselves under that kind of pressure. EEAAO never does. It is thunderously cinematic, revelling in the simplicity of filmmaking’s most basic tools, while deploying them to their maximum potential. And it is brilliantly performed — Stephanie Hsu is revelatory as the multifaceted Joy; Quan is astonishing in his cinematic comeback, an action master who’ll make your heart explode too; Jamie Lee Curtis has a blast exaggerating the monstrous physicality of a no-bullshit tax officer; and Yeoh is perfection, drawing on every skill from every role she’s ever played to bring Evelyn’s many lives to life.
This is a radical film, about radical love and radical acceptance. It’s the biggest-hearted movie you can imagine that also features someone being beaten to death with two massive, floppy dildos. You’ll goggle at the (literal) ballsiest fight scene ever committed to film. You’ll cry at a shot of two rocks. You’ll never look at a bagel the same way. Don’t forget to breathe. Read full review…
Everything Everywhere All at Once review: An ingenious, nuanced multiverse that leaves Marvel in the dust
Everything Everywhere All at Once is a film of such much-ness. Rich performances (Hong and Hsu should also be included here) collide with big ideas, wrapped in a nuanced understanding of how we treat each other. And there are butt jokes. So many wonderful, dumb butt jokes. What more could you ask for? Read full review…
Everything Everywhere All At Once review — wildly ambitious, furiously original
Cinema might not be dead after all. Between the backward momentum of Netflix and a string of hit blockbusters, a swagger has returned to moviegoing. Superheroes aside, singular green shoots have bloomed too with cosmic screwball epic Everything Everywhere All At Once, co-directed by Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheinert. A synopsis will be tricky; the facts are simpler. The film is an instant cult darling whose low-key US release in March began a box office ascent fuelled by giddy, fascinated word-of-mouth. Getting people into cinemas in 2022 turns out to be simple. You just make a wildly ambitious, furiously original miscellany of martial arts, existential panic, human connection and miniature pigs.

Everything Everywhere All At Once Review
Few things in life are certain besides death, taxes, and maybe the never-ending task that is doing laundry. At least that’s where the characters in writer/directors Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, collectively known as Daniels, new film “Everything Everywhere All at Once” find themselves initially. That is, until they take an emotional, philosophical, and deeply weird trip through the looking glass into the multiverse and discover metaphysical wisdom along the way. Read full review…
Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022) Movie Review – A stunning work of art
Everything Everywhere All At Once is a creative, chaotic trip that’s easily up there as one of the best films released this year. This beautifully written movie won’t be a masterpiece for everyone but for those who emotionally engage with this, it’s hard not to place A24’s latest on a pedestal as a stunning work of art.
