I think it’s nice that we share the same sky.

The next generations are going to be so sexually intelligent and boomers have no idea what to do with that.

Kubrick, you nasty little freak, you.
A lot of story to get lost in, get confused by, and ultimately be left with a lot of unanswered questions by. Loved so many performances except Tom’s; honestly, he was the weakest part of this for me. Beautiful photography and direction, but damn if Tom didn’t make me yell “React to something!” several times.

Entrancing and devastating.

Absolutely perfect mix of looney toons and video game style antics. Continuous laughter.

Feminist comedy that’s genuinely aware and funny? More of this, please.
Oh, and Seth Rogen and Charlize Theron have genuine chemistry??

Shamelessly stolen review from The Oscar Expert

PALM SPRINGS is a perfect romantic comedy. It’s consistently funny and the drama is heartfelt and even thought provoking at times. It has loads of fun with its Groundhog Day premise and Andy Samberg has never won me over more. Never expected this to happen but I’m a hardcore advocate for this movie. Everyone’s going to love it.

I’m so glad I didn’t know anything about this going in, because the premise took me totally by surprise.

Absolutely loved Timothée. I did a tiny about of prep to try to get a feel for Dylan, as I knew basically nothing about him before last week, and I feel like I got some of his vibes. I’m pretty sure that’s all I was meant to get, so mission: accomplished. I liked how tight the story was told, and I didn’t really care for a lot of the reaction shots; just let your lead convey the meaning instead of empty shots of people realizing Dylan is great for every song he sings.
I really appreciated the context of his folk-ish to rock-ish artistic growth and how the audience and industry interacted. I felt a real lack of connection with the shoehorned political context where we get a bunch of “oh and btw JFK got shot” or “oh and the Cuban Missile Crisis happened.” I don’t think there was a connection made with Dylan, our focus, other than his existence during those events, and I just wanted to feel some kind of relevance or impact.
Oh, and I’m trying not to be influenced by other reviewers who know more about Dylan than I do, but I’m only human.

The Oscar Expert put it best.
