Everything Everywhere All At Once


 Everything Everywhere All At Once - 8/10

What an amazing movie. I was totally captivated from the story to the editing and cinematography. It's one of those movies where you chance upon it and it is a gem. I knew about this movie from a friend and he told me to check it out. It's a good thing I did.

Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheinert are the directors for Everything Everywhere All At Once and they written it as well. Another amazing fact about the movie is the entire effects were all done by just 9 people including the 2 directors. And they didn't go to a vfx school, they learned by themselves through tutorials they found free online! And once you watch the movie, you will be astounded by the effects. For me, I loved it!

I liked the cast for EEAAO. Michelle Yeoh is still a good actor and she looks great! Stephanie Hsu was good as well and I loved her numerous costume and make up. There is also a barely recognizable Jamie Lee Curtis and Lo Pan from Big Trouble in Little China, James Hong. For a guy that old, still acting is a feat itself. The one actor that took me awhile to remember was the actor whose character is Waymond Wang. Ke Huy Quan aka Short Round from Indiana Jones and Data from The Goonies. This guy hasn't done anything in 20 years! He has definitely aged well and I managed to recognize from his voice. It was so good to see him back on screen. Data was always one of my fav Goonies. Not just the acting is good, the script was good as well. 

The biggest factor to watch Everything Everywhere all at once is without a doubt the VFX. It's damn good and quirky. Its hard to believe that this was all done by 9 people. The story is funny and quirky and has a good feel to it.

All in all, Everything Everywhere All at Once is a fantastic movie and everyone should watch it.
