Wow a 9/10 for morbius that’s high praise Adam. Jared Letos dedication to making his crew wait 45 minutes to use the bathroom is truly inspiring. I hope more films and actors could emulate such passion.
I was actually going to skip EEAAO because I thought it would be another "trying so hard to be quirky and original that it ends up being annoying" type of movie, but now I'm intrigued. Update: I just watched it tonight and it was great. Amazing concept, amazing story, compelling characters, great visuals. A24 really knocked it out of the park with this one.
Omfg it's so much better than u think, I was the same way, never heard of it and wasn't on board cause I thought it'd be a knock off multiverse movie, This movie did a better multiverse concept the marvel and DC so I assure u, this movie is ffckin nuts Also they have the funniest product placement I've ever seen in a movie Great action, amazing cinematography, and it's hilarious, go in blind and you'll enjoy it better
I was originally going to skip it as well based on the trailer. I read the trailer comments and thought they were bots and kind of ignored it, glad I was wrong
Everything, Everywhere All At Once is a movie that has extraordinary and lofty ambitions and somehow manages to realize every one of them, flawlessly and in a very down to earth way. It doesn't get caught up in its own concepts, nor does it lose the watcher becauee it got caught up in its own fart-sniffing intellectualism. I don't think I've ever seen such an extraordinary, genre-defying film. It is beautiful and brutal, profound and sentimental, violent and gentle in turns. I am generally not wildly moved by most films - I realized I was in tears about half way through this own, without really knowing why. This is as high a praise as I can offer. If you haven't seen it, go and see it in the cinema. I wish you well and hope you also see in it some of the same things in it that made it so unique for me. It is also visually stunning.
I started crying because of the emotion, and then kept crying because I was laughing, and then I was already crying when the next emotional hit came through, and so the tears didn't stop, even though they changed contexts a dozen times
Perfectly described. When I walked out of the there what I felt must have been what people felt when they first saw Star Wars or The Matrix. Will instantly get this on Blu-ray when I can.
One thing I've noticed in interviews with Daniels is how unpretentious they seem to be as people and as creators. And it's like, "Ah, that's how you were able to create this masterpiece without being dicks about it." I cannot get over how much I loved this movie.
I love how Adam sometimes just uses slang that betrays his other interests (not that he hides them) Instead of saying "He Transforms into a monster" he says " He TF's into a monster"
if Kung Fu Hustle had an existential crisis, that's Everything, Everywhere, All At Once. loved this movie! there were about 12 people in my theater and we were all laughing and having a great time!
I forgot some movies actually can be so good people consistently walk out having enjoyed their time. It really shows how soulless hollywood movies are these days.
Watched it yesterday and I was very freaked out that, including myself, there were only 5 people in the theater. It was still amazing, but I hope that isn’t a sign that the movie is doing badly...since all reviews for it are very positive.
I’ve cried watching a few movies, but I think this is the first time that I’ve full-on SOBBED n’ sniffled n’ stuff! “Everything Everywhere…” just hits the right spots for me.
@@FloorFerret It was a surreal and wonderful experience to laugh with a room full of strangers at nothing but a couple of rocks and the words "ha ha ha ha ha".
literally everyone in my theatere laughed in the rock scenes. they were really good. another point of praise for me was how no gag in the movie was just a one-off pointless gag. they all came back at some point as something meaningful
I just saw Everything Everywhere All at Once, and it was one of the most incredible cinema experiences I've ever had, probably the single most affecting film I've seen in an actual theater. What the fuck. Instant classic. Its theme and message aren't terribly original (but tbf that is itself part of the movie's theme), but it's executed so incredibly well, so funny and moving and just such a thrill-ride. It feels like a film made perfectly for and from this extremely confusing moment in human history. It made me feel like I knew where i was for a little while. Thanks for turning me on to it Adum.
Baffled that you can say the soundtrack to EEAAO was "meh". Honestly one of the best scores I've heard in a film in years, the track "In Another Life" literally brought me to tears when Evelyn and Waymond have that moment towards the end, and I never cry at movies.
The score was super affecting for me as well, there were a few different scenes where paired with the music I was super grateful to be watching EEAAO in a theater.
The closest theater playing Everything Everywhere All At Once is an hour drive away from me and a two hour walk from the nearest bus stop so I'm definitely a very happy fellow right now
Everyone who likes the soundtrack to Everything Everywhere All At Once should check Son Lux out, they’re the band that did it and they are very good. It was a trip hearing them get *_DAVID BYRNE AND MITSKI_* on a track though, holy goddamn.
So, Everywhere Everything All At Once just came out for everyone on Amazon 2 and a half hours ago, and I bought it. It is such a great movie, I enjoyed every second of it. Thank you for the 9 Rating, it really deserved it.
Re EEAAO's score: As a composer, I'd be really hesitant to pull too much cinematic focus to an original melodic motif here--you're not just tying material and genre together, you're also evoking nostalgia, and you're probably trying to be sensitive to the cross-cultural considerations of nostalgia, too. It would be interesting to hear what a maximalist composer like Andrew Norman would've done with this material; he uses forces and textures that pack the same punch and careen as freely as what's happening on picture in this movie.
Did you also listen to Dolby's interview with Son Lux about how they went about developing the musical score for EEAAO. Super insightful and brings in a lot of context and reason why it sounded so good. I found that on my 4th viewing I was focusing on the music of the film.
@@lw8099 Oh shit, I forgot Son Lux did the score for this film. I mean Christ, they advertised it constantly in my emails and Facebook and I still didn't connect the dots once people started praising the film to kingdom come. I feel like a bad fan. I absolutely love Son Lux. They're the best band in the USA in my opinion. Really proud that they were able to attach themselves to such a loved movie. Also the guest artists they got on the soundtrack still amazes me to this day.
you have the video editing down to a formula, to an extent where it just supplements the current point you're making perfectly, and it's all possible due to your analysis being so spot on so often. we're out here together laughing at big movie to the grave and i thank you every single day for it adum. you've literally been with me growing up. i've watched you since middle school. i turn 23 in a couple months.
Everything Everywhere was my first movie theater experience since the start of the COVID lockdown, and my god what a movie to break the ice again. I genuinely think it's a top 3 all time for me after just one watch. I'm looking forward to a rewatch whenever it becomes available for BluRay to really lock it in. I wish it was doing miles better in the box office because movies like this are what I missed and what will keep me coming. So fun.
I saw this video on April, stopped watching, waited to see Everything in theaters this August, and *finally* resumed playing Didn't want to spoil even a frame of the film. Super worth it.
I was really excited to see your review of everything everywhere all at once. If it was me I'd give it a 10 out of 10 based on creativity alone and the way they went about pitting it on screen and also the film editing. I'm surprised you didn't give it a 10 out of 10 to be honest but as soon as I left the theater I remember thinking that I knew you were going to enjoy this just for how novel it is
@@tituslafrombois1164 I have to disagree with this because he's given out a couple 10/10 because he was just so impressed with the film like the lighthouse for example. It's clear he has like a favorite bias towards anything Charlie Kaufman does because that touches him in particular but he's definitely given out 10/10 to not necessarily like life-changing films, for him specifically
I watched Everything, Everywhere, All at once this past weekend in theaters in Colombia. I ate a space brownie for the movie and it felt way out of this world. I genuinely felt I could experience multiple lives at the same time. I felt as confused as the protagonist, and the rock scenes tripped the hell out of me. At some point I stopped reading at the subtitles because I felt every word was pushing me out of my body and I got pretty scared of that. Awesome movie.
My favorite part of Morbius was when him and his girlfriend had to go to the hospital after Leto was shot by the gang bangers and the doctor tells him "You know what to do" and Leto literally looked at the camera and said "it's Morbin' time"
I left the theater extremely thrilled, and pleased. It was one of the first times I went to watch a movie knowing almost nothing about it, and it paid off, because this movie was a complete and wonderful surprise. I can’t wait to watch it again as soon as it’s available to own! Oh, and Everything Everywhere All at Once was fine too I guess.
Matt Smith is a pretty good actor. Silliness is one of his schticks, and he clearly was doing his best to make the antagonist more endearing, but the editing made it crash. The CG on his face was fucking godawful too. My friend and I were the only ones in the theatre and we screamed and laughed all the way through. If this hadn't been the case I would have gotten so bored i might have fallen asleep.
Cocktail of random netflix teen comedy weirdness, superhero multiverse bullshit and Hollywood boomer cheese aka "Everything Everywhere All at Once". Let's make a movie every pleb who's life confusingly swings from sucky to average will love. It really had it's moments, but past the 2hour mark I couldn't wait for it to finally spit out its predictable overall message
Thank you for recommending this movie so highly. I'm so glad I saw it and I may not have if you hadn't praised it so much. I'm talking about Morbius btw.
I just got back from seeing EEAAO and I'm very glad to see a 9/10 for it. I already adored Swiss Army Man, but this film absolutely blew me away even more than the other. I can't wait to see more from these directors and I definitely want to watch it again
This is so weird since I saw Morbius earlier this month and despised it and then saw EEAAO to cleanse my theater palette last week and loved it so much I saw it again later that same week and am now planning to force my entire family to come see it with me. As for the soundtrack, I'd mostly agree it's more subdued than it really should have been for this kind of movie, but I loved the orchestral explosions it used appropriately - check the track "This Is A Fast Elevator" - and the original song by Mitski and David Byrne that plays over the end credits was amazing, "This Is A Life".
I couldn't disagree with you more about the music. Son Lux created a goddamn masterpiece with this soundtrack. Where a lesser score would've done merely just what it needed to do, this OST beautifully enhanced every impactful moment and made this film that much larger than life. I listened to the whole thing right after my first viewing - it's got to be one of my favorites in a very long time, possibly ever!
So glad You love Everything Everywhere All at Once. When I saw it the a couple nights ago I knew I enjoyed but I didn't know initially if I loved but as times gone on I haven't been able to stop thinking about it. It's emotionally impacted me rethinking about certain details n.n
I saw Morbius on opening day and I didn't even see him jump off the boat because the wide shot was so fucking dark. Btw, that shot with Spider-Man on the wall was heavily edited and he was digitally removed in the theatrical cut
Im just glad to hear that Clair de Lune was used well in this movie Alot of different things throw the piece in because its recognizable but it always just rings hollow, and it sucks because it really is one of my favorite pieces of music, only followed up by Nocturne Op.9 No.2
edit: read the following if you want to learn why you should wait to finish the vid before commenting... i tried too hard to delete this tho interesting you say the score for everything every every all the every wasnt always thematically resonant/that the original composition wasn't working in some way, i haven't researched this thoroughly but i know the artist son lux did the original songs and i know that at least one song, the one used in the climactic fight scene, is a reinvention of a song he previously released titled "your day will come" which originally included lyrics that i find highly compatible with the point of the film personally i found the score helped at least a few scenes go from entertaining and compelling to touching/moving, but perhaps that had something to do with my familiarty with the artist, there is of course always room for subjectivity
I don't know how but upon first hearing the name, I honestly thought Everything, Everywhere All at Once was a sequel to Everything, Everything. I'm glad it isn't lmao
I agree with you except on the music in everything everywhere all at once... I thought it was perfect. Tracks like "in another life" "sucked into a bagel" "story of jobu" "come recover" are some of my favorites but overall I feel like son lux did a great job at the soundtrack :)
I remember seeing the music videos that The Daniels directed many years ago (Houdini by Foster the People and the Escalator one for Battles), and I knew they'd go on to do great things.
As a disabled person, the level of contempt and disgust I had for Jared Leto pulling that wheelchair stunt is truly incomparable. However, whenever I feel my pulse/blood pressure rising because of it, it's easily tempered by remembering that despite his selfishness and desperate need to put on a Performance with a capital P, he didn't actually use those crutches properly. For real, if you watch him walking around on those crutches, I can tell you, he is using them wrong and it is obvious that he is using them wrong.
I disagree about Swiss Army Man, I thought it was just about as deep and meaningful as EEAAO, but I do agree that EEAAO is a lot more accessible to a mainstream audience than Swiss Army Man.
I just wish EEAAO's soundtrack was as memorable as Swiss Army Man's. Acapella isn't my favorite genre of music, but goddamn does that soundtrack go hard.
One shot in the trailer had cg blood hitting a hand, falling from above. This makes the henchman look up. The movie has this shot but NO cg blood. So he looks up for no reason. Absolutely weird.
"Everything Everywhere" genuinely feels like the kind of film that younger/teen moviegoers of today will remember as a nostalgic turning point in there high school years that they'd keep coming back to or show their future children, sort of like how I imagine a lot of teenagers in the 80s felt about John Hughes films, or how people my age feel about early Edgar Wright movies
In 11th rn, saw the movie with my friends literally 5 days ago. It feels so strange seeing something at such a young age that I know I'll just kinda remember forever. Never been the weirdo "cinephile" type but the movie was just so cool! We all cried! And laughed! Great fun butt stuff for the whole family 10/10. Being a watch party of all gay angsty teens really enhanced the experience lmao (Btw we almost went to watch morbius for irony's sake lol, so glad we decided against it)
Trypophobia warning for 9:11-9:24 Second one at 10:22-10:31 Third one at 13:02-13:21 (The movie rating is in this block, so if you skip it, he gives it a 9/10.) I don't want to bring much attention to this, this is just for people who have this problem. Please don't worry about changing the video, it's not a huge enough deal. I'm just giving a warning to others because I experienced this rare, annoying issue at these parts.
The only point of hiring Jared Leto seems to be that he generates free buzz for the project by being a total tool on set. His "method" acting is not good or impressive, he has a very bad track records of starring in mediocre or bad movies and he is a literal cult leader.
For Everything Everywhere I couldn't help but notice the massive influence that Jackie Chan's directorial style and fight choreography had. Many of the core rules that makes Jackie such a captivating director also appeared here but in ways that added absurdism and thematically tied into the plot. The fact that action/comedy shouldn't be separate and should be used in tandem, everything is a weapon, using wider and longer shots and cutting twice to show the impact, the lead is fallible in fight scenes and can take a hit, and how to use planting and pay off in the environment of where a fight takes place.
Saw both movies, went into Everything everywhere, all at once blind and honestly wasn't expecting such a great movie, left me almost I'm tears. Morbius I went into expecting the worst and ill have to say it wasn't as bad as I anticipated, sure it isn't a perfect movie but I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would, pacing is very awkward tho and I feel like the movie editing was all over the place, I feel like if they re edited the movie a bit and re wrote some scenes the movie could have been way better. I'll say this tho, I enjoyed venom and I don't really see where the hate for it comes from, even if it isn't funny lol but that could just be because I have a soft spot for venom lol
The Vulture-Morbius team up really didn't make any sense. I kinda get why the Vulture wants revenge on Spider-Man since he doesn't remember Peter Parker anymore and only knows that Spider-Man destroyed his criminal business and took him from his family, but Morbius has no motivation to want to take on Spider-Man whatsoever. But he's just kinda like "K" when the Vulture asks if they can collab.
I can't believe I'd live to see the day Fubuki`sama would talk to Jared Leto and he wouldn't even know she has hair and foxtail... Also not surprised a D list comic character starring a D list celebrity, made by a D-list film studio didn't go so well.
I didn’t like the scene where Jared Leto approached that little girl and unzipped his pants whilst saying “you want the Morb? Then suck on these orbs”. I just don’t see what it added to the movie.
It was really weird decision to keep that break in the middle of the fight when moribund gets on a table and starts “I’m Jared Leto! I am a god! I can morph into anyone!”
I vividly remembered being speechless walking out of the theater after seeing Everything Everywhere All at Once. It truly was amazing to see something that truly felt like a one of a kind experience and also be so incredibly entertaining as I was viewing it with other people. I was completely filled with joy for the next day afterwards.
That is because you dont understand how easy it is to come up with weird visuals and then use those weird visuals as a substitute for great storytelling.
Sonic 2 was sweet. That's not a fair comparison. Sonic and Tails being cute bros would always be better than the lonely broody vampire man being angry at being a vampire.
@@serpico1252 Yeah, it's kind of amazing how Jared Leto ended up fucking up asking some questions. Especially with someone as incredibly interesting as Fubuki.
EEAAO was the best movie I’ve seen in years. It’s rare you see something that’s so original in theaters and makes you laugh your head off and bawl your eyes out in two hours. I can’t wait to get it on blu ray and watch it over and over again
