Very fun and propulsive, especially in the fairytale and madcap sections. The shift to Igor’s perspective felt a little paternalistic to both Ani and the audience, that we had to have some guy come in and very obviously sympathize with Ani’s plight for us to get it.  But also, he was just corny, as a character, self-consciously in the movie for a Reason, where every other character was driven by their own goals (or id), bouncing off each other in fun frenetic ways. Would’ve loved Ani’s catharsis if she’d done it alone.

A better one of things, but I wish the dude's obliviousness hadn't read so much like...actual mental deficiencies

bad i was somewhat compelled

Suggested this for a movie night with the parents, and I may have hurt my credibility as the family movie person permanently. I have no idea what the radiant Danielle Deadwyler was doing in this slop, but I wish the entire movie had been about her.

Some great ideas, loved the rituals. The pacing and the character work felt more like a tv series, in a way that was sometimes good but mostly bad

A compliment to the movie that I couldn't pin down exactly what it was doing or how it was doing it, I just experienced it emotionally, viscerally. I was moved and unsettled especially by the scene with the picnic and the poem and the cuts between mother and daughter, the watched and the watcher.

I think I'm with the consensus here that this is an extremely enjoyable, very well acted movie, which held my attention the entire time, and also looks terrible. It feels like its a behind-the-scenes video, which I guess emphasizes the fact that its real actors interacting with real, very impressive sets, but it doesn't immerse us in a world that matches the story being told.

Can't say enough good stuff about Grande and Erivo though.

Very funny, especially in the early going--less so when the genre plot kicks in but there are still some great gags (loved them leading the kiddos in a line through the apocalypse). Main character was summarily disqualified from being a romantic lead after the first five minutes, and I do wish the movie had realized that

My favorite part is when they made sure we knew Glen Powell was a good guy cause he used the profits from his face T-shirts to pay for food for small towns ravaged by tornados, and my second favorite part was when they weren't even chasing tornados and the tornado still found them at the rodeo, and my third favorite part is when that mom was like "I know you lost your friends and almost died in a tornado, but you have to go back to fighting tornados, because you're the only one who can solve climate change and also bring down the price of wheat."
