Everything Everywhere All At Once is LIFE-CHANGING! [ REACTION / COMMENTARY ] 

What's interesting is that Waymond has no character arc. We do, with our perspective of him. He remains unchanged.

I too, could not stop crying after Waymond's "In another life.." line. Everything about this movie was so special, I keep watching reactions because I just love seeing other ppl get to experience this film. It certainly was such an unexpected love for me

Me to and there are so many amazing lines "If nothing matters, then all the pain and guilt you feel for making nothing of your life goes away" I could talk about this movie all day

The Raccacoonie part is also extremely beautiful to me. It is talking about not to be shameful to depend on on another sometimes You get help from others when you are in need and you offer help when others are in need

I can't remember the last time something in a movie gutted me so hard as the intercut speeches by the alternate Waymonds... especially the "main" Waymond saying he felt like, somehow, it felt like everything happening was his fault. That hit me in a place I didn't know I had.

Best movie I've seen in a really long time. I left the cinema with so many emotions. What an experience. I laughed so hard, I cried like a baby and I gained a new perspective on things. I feel everyone in the cinema went through the same and it united us. EVERYTHING about this movie is perfect. I can't think of a single thing I would cut out or change. It's so absurd. I just love it so much. And I love your reaction! "So, even though you have broken my heart yet again...I wanted to say, in another life I would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you." 💖

The last 30 minutes of this movie get me every time and this was one of my favourite reactions

I've been watching so many reactions of this movie and I love how everybody breaks at the same moment, which is when Waymond says in another life, he would've just been happy doing laundry and taxes with her. Such a simple line, but perfectly delivered ans supported with excellent music. Gets me every time.

Your sudden outbursts of laughter made this a joy to watch! Such a fantastic movie, glad you enjoyed it.

The movie was just so insanely symbolic for me, when she started using the googly eyes to fight I just completely burst into tears. The googly eyes were how Waymond fought the mundane aspects of life, through injecting a little joy into them with googly eyes. Joy learns this after "infecting" him with what she has learned, and sees everything from his perspective. The movie really is just all about perspective and always considering that behind every human is a story, not so dissimilar from our own, everyone just wants to be loved and understood. The scene with Joy's mother, and then with her mothers father about her sexuality really mirrors how younger generations view issues like these. We've all experienced these things and have accepted them on the Internet, our parents haven't had the same luxury and sometimes it's extremely difficult for both sides to understand one another. This really stood out to me when Waymond says "Please be kind, especially when we (older generation) don't know what's going on." We as young people expect older people to understand by default, but ignore that they grew up without access to information like us. We get mad at them easily for this, and it's excruciating for them to be yelled at for something they just need help understanding.

I'm not usually into react content so I won't be subscribing, I'm just obsessed with this movie so I've been watching literally any one I can get my hands on lol. With that said, I've seen probably around 15 or more reacts to this movie and yours is in my top 5. Thanks for sharing your experience with this crazy wild ride of a movie!

The movie instantly became my favorite movie of the year. Possibily of all time. Watching it in theathers, I cried at the moments everyone else did. Seeing it again, I cried a few minutes before everyone else. Seeing your review I started tearing up at the beginning. This movie is special. I told everyone to watch it when it came out and a few have. Thanks Kelsea this. I needed it. Great reaction.

Loved the reaction! It should be noted that Waymond is played by Ke Huy Quan, whom played Data in "Goonies" (1985). He came out of retirement just for this flick. The only other Daniels movie is "Swiss Army Man" (2016). Equally weird, and an interesting movie. Highly recommend

I love this movie to bits! The absurdity, the heart, the raccoon (voiced by Randy Newman, BTW). All of it is so delightful!

This movie is a whole experience! Love it

The movie is so incredible. A total roller coaster ride. I laughed and cried so much. Love the movie 🪨 👀😍

Waymond didn’t have a character arc. As the pop culture detective observed it was the audience that had the character arc in our perspective of Waymond. He stayed the same

I felt like I went through 5 years of therapy watching this film.

If this movie doesnt get an oscar award we riot

I really appreciate your reaction. Your summary perfectly touches on all of the great aspects of this film. Thanks for taking the time to share this.

I love this film so much 🤍 And your reaction was wonderful! I sobbed for the entire last 35 minutes of the film; there’s truly nothing like it :)

One important visual motif that I missed on my first viewing is that the Googly Eyes is the inverse colors of the Everything Bagel. It is Waymond's existentialism vs Jobu's nihilism. It is the ying-yang and just part of the circles that are visuals you find throughout the movie starting with the opening shot. As for your initial observation that his name was "Alpha Waymond", the Alpha part was intended to be perceived that way by Daniels. They wanted the trope of the 'alpha' (totally disavowed and disproven claim about wolves) being the butt kicker and not 'weak' like our Waymond but by the end we of course realize that Alpha Waymond didn't actually do anything but be aggressive and start fights. But it was the Waymond who fights with love and acceptance who allowed Evelyn to embrace her Joy.

The Daniels really did attempt to put everything "on" a movie and succeeded. It's great to see Michelle Yeoh getting the recognition she deserves. She is an absolute screen legend. Those not familiar with her earlier Hong Kong films should seek them out. It was brilliant to include footage of actual red carpet moments in the "Wong Kar Wai universe" scenes. Ke Huy Quan's performance was special also. He stopped acting for over 20 years due to a lack of opportunities. Hopefully, this is the beginning of a mid-career renaissance.

Awesome reaction! The Waymond character hit me in all the feels because kindness has always been my default setting and I've always viewed it as my superpower. And btw, I was so happy to find out that we're Parks and Rec Besties. "She's the wooooorst"😂

Such a fantastic ride! Were you aware that Waymond is played by the kid who played Shortround from Indiana Jones and also Data from The Goonies?

For me this is best described as “Monty Python presents Its a Wonderful multiverse life”.

If you love this movie, I'd highly highly recommend a movie called "Synecdoche, New York". It deals with a lot of similar themes and ideas, and is also a masterpiece of abstract absurdism and existential truths. It's also what I consider Phillip Seymour Hoffman's greatest performance. I don't think it'd ever win any polls unfortunately, as it's not that well known and popular, but it would mean the world to me if you reacted to it. I guarantee it's like nothing you've seen before!

The feet playing the piano weren't actually feet - they were gloves someone wore made to look like feet - shown in one of the making of videos - good catch.

Yayyy, so glad you reacted to this!

16:18 - accidentally anticipates the part later, where Waymond pleads with everyone to Stop Fighting.

Great reaction thanks :) I love reaction videos with this film, by the end everyone takes a deep breath and are just stunned about what they just watched lol. This film took me by surprise, didn't know much about it, friend wanted to see it at cinema. Probably the best cinema experience I've ever had. It's hard to sell the film to people coz they ask you what its about and I don't have the words :)

I'm not usually into react content but I will be subscribing. I will also be liking and obviously commenting. I love this movie and I loved your reaction. Thank you for sharing it.

When I saw the intro clip, I thought was it the paper cuts or the butt plug? And then I realized that that was a question I just wrote.

I wanted my comment to be so bold and blazing about how "I'm subscribing to this channel based SOLELY on your reaction to this movie" but I checked your catalog and I see that you're currently going through Haunting of Hill House and that show is my jam so I'm really signed up now. As for the latter, Flannagan's "Haunting of Bly Manor" is less horror than gothic romance, yet is definitely something you should react to, and Midnight Mass is horror in its own right when humans are the horror. OK sorry just checked your Hill House game and now understand that you've already seen Bly Manor, please dismiss my related comments. Also hey, did you watch Breaking Bad and/or Mad Men yet?

This is a beautiful and weird movie that has had a big impact on me and how i view my life. I enjoy watching everyone's first reactions to it.

i would pay ungodly amounts of money to experiencr this movie for the first time again

I love this movie! This reaction was a nice pick me up! You have a wonderful smile.

Great reaction Kelsea! & why the heck haven't I come across your channel before?! Subbed!

I finally got around to seeing this. Brilliant movie. And yes, I did get an everything bagel with cream cheese after seeing it.

best movie of the year, 10/10

Despite Everything in this movie 24:19 just makes me shrink into myself more than anything else. It is terrifying. Please never do that to my hands.

Amazing reaction my friend Kelsea!!....In 2017, the music world was shocked by the bursting onto the scene of a 22-year-old singer named Dimash Kudaibergen, who performed on the famous Chinese competition show for professional singers called “The Singer”... It was just It was necessary for this young man to make his first appearance, making a cover of one of the most difficult songs in the world, a famous French composition called "S.O.S. D'un Terrien En Détresse", to be considered from that moment on as the best singer in the entire planet....No one in the musical field had ever seen a human being, being able to reach vocal ranges above 7 octaves and several semitones, that is, all 88 keys of a digital piano, which reaches a little more than 7 octaves and as if that weren't enough, sing the more than 12 languages...Since then all kinds of experts (Vocal coach, analysts, singing teachers, youtubers, reactors, etc.) have dedicated themselves to reviewing their presentations to try to understand how someone can sing this way...The incredible thing is that that presentation in China was in 2017 and 5 years have passed since then, but what Dimash has done in these 5 years is to further improve his wide vocal range, which is currently practically above of the 8 octaves... The Covid pandemic stopped his concerts worldwide, all with tickets sold in just seconds, via the internet, but at the same time it ended up catapulting him to the top of popularity worldwide...Anyway, since I think you are one of those reactors who have not yet met this impressive singer, here is the link of that presentation in China in 2017, with the song S.O.S. and I would like you to mention my name as the person who recommended him to you..It is a more recent video than the others, so it does not have the same number of views as the previous ones, which have millions of views, but it is a more complete video, with an intro, subtitles in several languages and with the improved quality of audio and sound....ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bDX3FhmyNac.html

Love how much you loved this film!

Hahaha.. I guess your initial reaction in the video has something to do with the butt plug scene? hahahah

😴 😴 🥱 🥱 is the movie over yet? 🥱🫣🫣🫣 😂

Hello

90% of the Marvel films are forgettable, so don't beat yourself up over them.

How does an Asian girl look like your cousin??

PLEASE, do not make a comparison of Everything Everywhere All at Once and Doctor Strange. They are two totally different movies and do multiverse two different ways. One doesn't have to be 'better' than the other.

This movie was extremely racist. There were no black chinese muslims.
