this is such an amazing movie. it definitely deserves its oscar wins frfr. i really loved that underneath all of the sci-fi stuff, it’s essentially just a family movie at its core. this movie’s kinda weird and confusing at first, but it makes up for that in the dynamic of the family from the actors who play them and how this film chooses to showcase it. this film is really funny, even tho it’s not rlly labeled as a comedy. it also might strike your heart a bit, but at the same time it’s really eye-opening too.

It proposes questions like, 'if the multiverse is real and everything is statistical inevitability, can life have meaning?' or 'Have you wasted your life or have you just not realised your potential yet?'. Conceptually, this is the sort of sci
