Razorbitz reviewedFebruary 22, 2025
The only multiverse film that does justice to the idea. Where anywhere else the idea of a multiverse is often just aggressive brand dilution for a quick buck, this film eschews the trope it helped start by delivering a focused and powerful tale of family in the throes of wonderful madness. It is only to the imitators detriment that they fail to understand the multiverse is the spectacle element of what is an entirely emotional story told at the highest peaks such a fantastical outline could possibly reach.
It is made even more insane that despite having nothing to do with superheroes it delivers a heroic tale with more action and sincere pathos that the superhero film trying to do the same thing seemed like a moist toilet in comparison. Yet despite the hotdog fingers and insane fight coreography, it all comes back to a richly told family drama at a laundromat.
I love this film! There is so much magic here, so much unrestrained creativity that only benefits the narrative; deserving of every praise and award. Must be seen on the biggest, prettiest screen you own at the highest possible resolution. What a gem.
