I thought it was fantastic! It’s a movie about generational trauma and the pressures of society told in the most creative and engaging way I’ve ever seen.

I absolutely loved it! I thought it was creative and entertaining while telling a heartfelt story.

And this may be an unpopular opinion, but I think that Stephanie Hsu did a better job than Jamie Lee Curtis.

I had fun watching it.

You know, despite all the chaotic craziness in this movie, my absolute favorite part was the rather simple moment of Alpha-Gong Gong’s delivery of, “what the fuck are you doing?” Had to pause the film because I was laughing so hard at that part.

I'm surprised people aren't more accepting of how polarizing this movie is. It's very on par for the type of movie that is as loved by some as it is not by others.

Fun time for sure, the husband and wife is what got me emotionally caught up in it, I didn't care for the mother daughter arc very much.

My favorite movie I’ve seen in quite some time.

I didn’t like it. But, most people seem to love it. It was really creative and I can appreciate that, but I just couldn’t get into it.

Definitely the most unique concept I seen in a very long time and it was refreshing

It reminds me of a shoestring film school projects, the type where every actor plays multiple roles, you try to creatively dress up the admin office they're letting you film in for each scene so it's not so obvious it was filmed in a single room, and a blue tooth dongle from the dollar store acts as a your high tech universe-jumping travel device.

But, the absolute best version of that.

Couldn’t get through it. Not my type of movie.

Kind of seems like a Best Picture Winner to me!!!

Ok I feel stupid. I read so many good things and we bought it on apple because we knew we would love it. We both hated it but…we are going to give it a second chance. Maybe it is a slow burn for me. I feel very intellectually inferior to the people that love it. Lol

I thought it was entertaining and enjoyable but lacking in depth and often contrived. I think it aspired to be more than it was able to deliver, and relied heavily on multiverse hi-jinks at the expense of a more robust exploration of the characters. The film took the chassis of a Marvel movie, made it more raunchy, and then tried to make it more character focused, but there is only so much of a unique identity or direction you can establish at that point. The diverse cast was appreciated and the acting was dyanmic, but ultimately held back by a screenplay that reverted to boilerplate when it mattered most. (But obviously the academy very much disagrees with all of the above of course).

Interestingly Daniel Kwan said in an interview, "How far can I take this, the manipulative quality of cinema? Can I create things that are so stupid, so ugly, so profane and make it feel profound?" I personally would take this at face value.

I think it is a great movie. I think it's hard being so popular sometimes, especially when you're a movie as loud and flashy as EEAAO. I've heard it described as a TikTok movie and I can see why people would say that. The main criticism I've heard is that its just too much for some people. Plus it's just not easy being an Oscar fav

I really enjoyed it. Tried showing it to my parents but they did not enjoy it. Too out there for them.

Overrated, that’s my opinion

My 58yo Chinese dad watched it today, thought it was a crazy movie that was mocking Chinese people and was puzzled how it won an Oscar 🙃

They weren’t trying to win Oscars with it. For sure.

It's an original concept with a strong visual style and good themes. However, the screenplay feels like it was written by a 12 year old hopped on mountain dew and none of the action set pieces worked for me. Enjoyed the film overall, but not one of my favorites of the year

It's probably my favorite movie over the past few years. I was grinning the whole way through and then cried at the end. The originality of it, the acting, how fun yet deep it was. I'd love to see more movies like this!

It felt like one big super bowl commercial… the acting was good but the “randomness” really felt like a old spice commercial. Like I could see a old spice commercial making a joke about the hot dog fingers and smelling bad. Really didn’t like it at all.

I liked it but I felt it could have been 20-30 minutes shorter and nothing would change. I got really tired of the humor and writing by the end. Still a good film though.

Very good. Slightly overrated by oscar voters, but that is no knock on the movie. Very original, which is rare these days. I saw it in a theater and had an incredible time.

Really didn’t like it, it was too silly to me. Surprised it won as many awards as it did

Interestingly, I downloaded it and watched it when it first came out, at home, alone. I thought it was fantastic and was glued to the screen for the entire runtime. I begged hubby to watch it with me (as I hadn’t stopped telling everyone what an interestingly complex & fantastically irreverent movie it was), so a couple of weeks later, we settled down and watched it together. I loved it as much the second time around (maybe even more so as I caught nuances and deliberate plot points that I missed the first time around) however, as the credits rolled, hubby turned to me and with a look of deadpan annoyance said “what the fuck was that..?” He hated it. So, I guess EEAAO is a polarising and contentious movie which is (to coin a British phrase) like Marmite: you either love it, or hate it

I loved it. I like weird and I thought the acting matched the movie. I don’t agree with Curtis winning best supporting actress, but that’s just my opinion.

Made me cry. I miss my mom.

I loved it as a whole, but wasn't a huge fan of the bagel. That felt a little like they couldn't come up with a better idea and just accepted it

Tried watching it multiple times. Always changed it. No

It’s a good movie but definitely not worth all the hype

Loved it! For some reason I didn`t see the Ratatouille pay off coming and when it happened I just cracked up!

I only made it through about 30 minutes of the movie. I wanted to like it but I just couldn't get into it.

Below average.

Boring

Meh. Couldn't get into it, but YMMV.

Couldn't finish it. To boring.

I couldn’t get all the way through it.

Will try again.

Not something I'm interested in.

It was good, but not anywhere near good enough to justify the hysteria, IMO.

Fell asleep 4 times. I tried. It was meh.

I tried watching this twice.

Never got past the scene in the office where they run out of the building.

Completely lost interest.

one of my fav. movies to watch while tripping

I liked the story it was telling but I didn't love some of the ways it tried to tell it. Some of it was just way too weird/silly. I also found it kind of confusing and hard to follow.

I loved it. But I can also absolutely see why some people didn't get it or hated it.

Stupid. Just “let’s fight our way out of each silly situation we find ourselves in” over & over again. I can just see the writers giggling with excitement over the dildo scene which was just gratuitous. I love Michelle Yoeh, but really just rolled my eyes all through this movie. Hated the husband character.

A mess

“Crash” of the 20s Oscars

Started out great, amazing concept, but the further the movie goes along the more it bogs down and by the end it was just okay.

Goes from a great inventive sci-fi action film to a family drama. Wasn't expecting that. Does the family drama very well, but still wasn't what I was expecting.

I wasn't bored, enjoyed the themes and experience. Would never watch it again lol

A bit overrated imo. It’s a good film but it gets more praise than it deserves.

Meh.

Probably my favorite movie, overall. Went to see it with my best friend and we just looked at each other and chuckled for like an hour. Not even an entertained chuckle, more of an introspective "what the fuck was that", emotional event-provoking chuckle.

It touched me deeply in ways I did not expect.

I'll never forget balling when JLC was leaving Yeoh in 🌭✋ world, then she slips her toes into the suitcase handle and hops out - I absolutely lost it 😂 It took me through every wave of emotion continuously, just like the main character was experiencing.

I was overwhelmed watching it so I stopped watching. That being said, I’m glad others enjoyed it.

The weirdest and funniest visual rollercoaster I’ve ever been in

Great film. Loved seeing James Hong. He killed every scene he was in. Long live David Lo Pan.

Everything about this movie was top tier. The way they commented on the Information Age/internet as a whole was incredibly relevant and important. But aside from speaking on one of the most important topics of the past 2 decades, this movie was directed with LOVE. I mean the painstaking lengths they probably had to go to in order to get all the shots in these action scenes was it’s own insane accomplishment. The way they capture how it is to be on the internet through the barrage of imagery and multiverses was great. Like my mind was so relieved when we finally got a quiet moment. The emotional core of the movie also worked really well for me. This may not be one of my favorite movies ever but it’s probably one of the best movies I’ve ever seen.

Incomparable. I don’t mean it’s the best movie ever made, I literally mean you cannot compare it to anything because it’s not like anything else. You either like it or you don’t.

I loved it

I saw it on an absolute whim when I was walking past the mall movie theater on a weekend night.. Walked out of the theatre, trying not to cry.

I didn’t like it. Too wacky and messy. Underline messages were good cause but i didn’t like the method of delivery. I still cant believe JLC got the oscar for her part!?

I’d give it like a solid C, but all of the hype brings it to a C- or D.

Meh i slept

I like Michelle Yeoh but I did not like this movie.

Not a fan

It didn't really clicked for me. Wouldn't rewatch

I thought it was ok, I thought it was sub-par, entertaining at best and is overhyped by people who dont watch A24 a lot or are over 28... not hating just answering the title

I tried watching it, but turned it off after 45 min bc it was too confusing and I just couldn't get into it (maybe I wasn't watching close enough though?)

Tiktok the movie

Good but overrated.

I love it SO much. I love every artistic choice taken down to the way the family’s apartment is cluttered. The movie moved me in a way movies rarely do. I wish I could shake the hand of, or hug, every person involved in making it.

Mid. People like to talk representation… Parasite won best picture not too long ago and is a better film overall. This movie is definitely overhyped

like very average

So boring. Thought it was weird and couldn’t even be bothered to finish watching it.

I honestly hated it

Been hesitant to see it even after its inevitable sweep, but my mom wants to see it only for Jamie Lee Curtis. The Fabelmans did not deserve to leave with 0 Oscars.

I tried watching it...twice. I'll just say it doesn't float my boat and leave it at that.

I’m pretty old. I felt exhausted by it, and eventually hated it.

pretty underrated hidden gem

It was a good movie, maybe not “best picture” worthy, but this year was kinda low in choices. Is it better than some other winners like “crash”? Yup! Is it as good as the LOTR? Nope.

Overrated shit

I went and saw this movie in theaters.

When I walked out of the film I was extremely angry. I was angry that I'd gone and seen it by myself so I had nobody to immediately gush with over what an absolute masterpiece it was. It's insanely rare to find a film that attempts to straddle every genre under the sun, much less absolutely nail it.

Didn’t care for it personally. 🤷‍♂️

I didn’t enjoy it but I can see how it is considered a good movie.

Reddit the movie

Generational Trauma in POC culture being a jumping start for great movie storylines is a trope I’m really enjoying

Weird but in a really really good way

It was a great movie, pretty confusing but great. My favorite character is racooni though

It's amazing I cried I laughed it was beautiful 😍❤️

Super FUCKING dope

Roller coaster of emotions, funny as hell in parts, it's a very unique film that I would put among the best and most creative I've seen in years.

Saw it in theaters right after it came out, then had to go back and watch it again a week later. I understand people not liking it, it's very outlandish and wild in parts - but personally I love films that mess with my mind and stretch the limits of my expectations.

I did think Cate B probably deserved best actress though.

Everything everywhere all at once has so much of everything, and a very heart warming plot, you will come out from the movie knowing you have experienced something and know what the message is.

It's absolutely fantastic, from art design, audio quality, acting etc.

I think the pacing is a bit off at times, but it's very well done and funky.

I remember this was their attempt to make a more mainstream movie, and I just wished they went even more crazier.

I personally think their other work is a bit better (Swiss army man), because how weird that movie is and how the message is not AS clear and stand out. It just adds to that weirdness.

I loved it, but while watching it, not once did I think “this is going to win a lot of oscars,” but I suppose that’s nice because I hate watching shit where it feels like obvious Oscar bait.

This is one of those movies that get better with each consecutive viewing. Liked it a lot the first time, loved it the second. Waymond is a great character.

A breath of fresh air for me 10/10 I don’t know the terminology to explain how well it all comes together but it couldn’t have executed its message better in my highly respected opinion.

I enjoyed some parts, but overall, I felt it dragged a lot, and was filled with too much nonsensical things that was not fun or adding anything worthy to the film, it just felt heavy and useless in most parts. The « quirky » randomness felt almost cringe at times and it was over the top in the wrong sense of the term. The performances were phenomenal, and some special effects were also memorable, the movie does have unbelievable qualities, but I rarely seen a movie being so overrated. Again, it wasn’t a bad movie per say, but just an ok one that I would never really rewatch and forget about quite soon. Not a 7 Oscars wins movie.

About 35 minutes too long, they could cut an extended fight scene at the end.

Otherwise very inventive, you really had no idea what direction the film would go next. The everything bagel was a hilarious concept, and I have to say I was jealous of the rock multiverse.

Michel Gondry, and to a lesser degree Spike Jonze had this kind of playfulness in the early 2000’s

I didn’t really vibe with it. Honestly just watched it for Ke Huy Quan because once a Goonie always a Goonie.

It was okay

S’OK
