Dramedy Done Right

I feel like this will draw a lot of comparisons to Everything Everywhere All At Once due to some of the similar "meta" themes, but I liked this more. It's a hard line to walk balancing both comedy and drama in a film without giving the audience whiplash, this movie simply handled it better.

Kudos to the director for achieving the authentic feel of a schlocky B-Movie from the 80's, it's something a lot of people try and fail to do. For half the movie I was convinced they just took some unknown film and edited around it.

It was a fun movie, a touching movie, and it left me with a smile on my face.
