Plot: When an interdimensional rupture unravels reality, an unlikely hero must channel her newfound powers to fight bizarre and bewildering dangers from the multiverse as the fate of the world hangs in the balance.

Everything everywhere all at once Movie was a blast.

Pros: I was Impressed how it was able to tell this storyline involving multiverse shenanigans through 3 chapters. The cinematography was fantastic. Michelle Yeoh performance is so good. & I like the mix of comedy, Drama & suspense throughout the film.

Cons: My only complaint is the film went on for too long.

  • Michelle Yeoh as Evelyn Quan Wang, a dissatisfied and overwhelmed laundromat owner.
  • Stephanie Hsu as Joy Wang / Jobu Tupaki, Evelyn and Waymond’s daughter and a threat to the multiverse.
  • Ke Huy Quan as Waymond Wang, Evelyn’s meek and goofy husband.
  • James Hong as Gong Gong (Cantonese 公公, “grandfather”), Evelyn’s demanding father.
  • Jamie Lee Curtis as Deirdre Beaubeirdra, an IRS inspector.
  • Tallie Medel as Becky Sregor, Joy’s girlfriend.
  • Jenny Slate as Debbie the Dog Mom / “Big Nose”, a laundromat customer. Slate’s character’s name will be changed due to fan feedback, which considered it problematic in association to Jewish stereotypes, for the film’s digital release.
  • Harry Shum Jr. as Chad, a teppanyaki chef working alongside Evelyn in an alternate universe.
  • Biff Wiff as Rick, a laundromat customer
  • Sunita Mani as TV Musical Queen
  • Aaron Lazar as TV Musical Soldier
  • Audrey Wasilewski and Peter Banifaz as Alpha RV Officers
  • Daniel Scheinert as District Manager

I highly recommend watching this film.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars
