Space Waves

There's so many movies about romantic breakups but hardly any about best friend breakups.

Space Waves is about letting go of how things were, embracing how things are, and knowing that although times change, friendship and adventure can be found in every season of life.

Movie writing requires a plot. This movie did not incorporate a plot in the vapid and disconnected writing.

Unsure as to the "80s" motif other than the lead character wearing a headband like Olivia Newton-John.

The "conflict" was manufactured and disjointed. (As well as film school awkward prescriptive dialog) Nobody will ever understand what the "Space Waves Podcast" was about, nor will anyone understand why this was brought to the screen.

Just play the bagel scene over and over to appreciate the abysmal story telling of this futile attempt at agro 80s humor.

Yawnfest.

...and brought the 80s back. What a fun way to relive a moment in time, just as if it was yesterday. You nailed every cliche that made back in the day, the day.

When I watched the interview I was just so taken by this, the world we live in today is just so dead, so lost and without purpose but immediately after watching his interview I was so eager to see the truth behind what he was talking about the knowledge he was disseminating and I was not disappointed I got exactly what I was looking for. THIS SEEMS LIKE MORE THAN A MOVIE ITS JUST SO REAL, SO PASSIONATE, SO HONEST, I WISH I HAD SEEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS WHEN I WAS MUCH YOUNGER, HOW EVER I AM GLAD I RAN INTO THIS BECAUSE IT JUST IGNITED A FIRE WITHIN THAN MAN I LOVE IT ALREADY. THIS DREW SOME EMOTIONS OUT OF ME AND I'M NOT EVEN AN EMOTIONAL GUY!

Rare are movies centered on friendship, I could definitely relate and so can anyone who ever had a hard time growing out of the past and moving to whatever life has to offer. Nobody prepares you for the way relationships die over time, just from having different ambitions. Childhood friends are the hardest to let go. I love how the movie just did not take itself seriously yet managed to enlighten a very simple and essential message : little things matter. Nostalgia is eternal, but what you focus on should be the best memories, no matter how small.

I did have a hard time with the absurdity of certain scenes, very cartoonesque moments that I think may have been a decision related to the 80s throwback, but I do love the overall fashion chosen for the characters. Gave me very nice and friendly summer vibes. That and the fact that obviously everybody had fun making the movie and it shows. Also that type of setting does make the movie timeless, and that is great because the whole friendship plot is relatable to any generation.

I believe this has potential for a sequel... Either way I will definitely stay tuned for the crew's next productions. Big up to you all !
