I saw it for the first time yesterday. It was a Thursday matinee in an art house theater. Nearly everyone in the crowd, including us, were of that certain age.

We aren't certain if we should recommend this to my elderly aunt because we don't know if she'd be offended by crass things like the dildo fight.

I saw it about a year ago, and I'm proud to say that this was a rare film that just clicked immediately for me. I've been wanting something like this for a long time, in fact. Life is bizarre, life is depressing, relationships come and go and you're always wondering about how life could have turned out differently if you'd done X differently or if Y event never occurred. It connected with me on a spiritual level, not just in my anxieties about life and nature of the universe and destiny with my future wife snce we're poor, but also my love of the outlandish and possibilities of the cosmos and comics and sci-fi.

Life on this planet is so incredibly stupid. And I don't always mean that in a bad way. We have an obesity problem while a billion people go hungry. We watch little rectangles for fun and then go on other rectangles and talk about what we saw, then we go to sleep on a different rectangle. We turned wolves into French Bulldogs. We love round things and invented 101 ways to cook a root. We get satisfaction out of making stuff, even when it's not very good. We use violence as humor and spectacle and tragedy. And we never know who or where we'd be if a single thing turned out different, even as small as being a minute late (or early).

My fiancee and I watched this together in the theater. The ticket stub shortened the name of the film to "Everything". I put it in the ring box when I proposed. Now is that dumb/sweet/poetic or what? It's all of it.

For me it didn't click immediately. First time I saw it, wasn't truly impressed. Second time, over last weekend, appreciated it more.

First time: liked it but was like WTF, need to see it again asap.

Second time: really liked it even more and understood what was going on a lot better.

Third time: Absolutely love it. Will revisit often.

In my opinion, the more people know what they’re getting themselves into before they see it, the better.

I was caught a little off-guard by the structure of the movie, so the first time I saw it, even though I enjoyed it, it felt very long.

The second time, now that I knew the story's progression, it played out wonderfully, feeling faster than the first time.

Finisher

Yeah, I don't get the praise. And agree on "maybe it'll play better upon rewatch" but have absolutely zero inclination to sit through that nonsense again.

I first saw it with my eldest daughter before Christmas. I loved it so much I watched it again a week or so later with all my friends. Now with the Oscar buzz my wife and second daughter are wondering what they are missing out on and are ready to watch it. I don't know if I'm ready for a third time yet. It's a long movie.

I rented it twice so at this point I should have just bought the damn thing.
