With her laundromat teetering on the brink of failure and her marriage to wimpy husband Waymond on the rocks, overworked Evelyn Wang struggles to cope with everything, including a tattered relationship with her judgmental father and daughter. And as if facing a gloomy midlife crisis wasn't enough, Evelyn must brace herself up for an unpleasant meeting with an impersonal bureaucrat: Deirdre, the shabbily dressed IRS auditor. However, as the stern agent loses patience, an inexplicable multiverse rift becomes an eye-opening exploration of parallel realities. Will Evelyn jump down the rabbit hole? But how many stars are in the universe? Can weary Evelyn fathom the irrepressible force of possibilities, tap into newfound powers, and prevent an evil entity from destroying the thin, countless layers of the unseen world?

Second viewing after catching it's secondary theatrical run. It holds up and reveals more on repeated watch. It's far from perfect, but it does the thing where its flaws are the point. Its overindulgences are the message. Its questionable taste is anarchic celebration. The emotional core is so damn strong that it can sustain all of it even as it threatens to buckle. It makes a point to pull back all of the colors and noise at key points to prove that, yes, this is a serious film, and it could be a moody prestige drama bait film if it really wanted. That's so limiting and boring, though. Seek adventure, relish joy, love big, flip the script on nihilism, and be unreasonably kind. Of the films I have seen, which is not a comprehensive list, I sheepishly yet confidently state that this is my single favorite movie ever.
