Tomorrow Ever After

"I keep making mistakes. I don't know how to live here."

The main character says in one scene when she keeps being met with hardship & resistance, simply by being herself (which was perfectly fine where she is from). We all have felt like we don't belong at some point. Or that we aren't enough or questioned ourselves, our gifts and superpowers (aka flaws) and often times adjust ourselves to fit in, to get by, to make our lives (or relationships) seemingly easier.

This film was definitely refreshing, leaving you reflecting on your life, your choices, how you interact with yourself, others, and the words…. The impact of it all. It was just so rich in simply being human. Connection is what really makes the world go round, up and down, and even wobble at times!! And this film shows our connection and disconnection in a way that really leaves you with yourself.

Thank YOU Ela!!!

At the 1 hour point it felt like I'd been watching this for 2 hours. And I was no further along in finding out if it was actually heading somewhere. There is SO MUCH DULL TALKING from the protagonist, & people staring, looking weirded out. Not one of the strangers the protagonist encounters would react in real life like they do in this movie. It's like watching a play on a TV. A dull play you just sit there squirming, praying for the intermission so you can jump ship.

After the first hour I couldn't watch any more, even though there was only 30 minutes left to go.

The only way I would recommend this movie is if you need something quiet and dull on in the background to fall asleep to.

This movie needs more attention from the world! The scenes will stay with you like quotes from your favorite book. Total diamond in the rough of garbage that's out these days.

For reference, this is my taste: JoJo Rabbit, Little Miss Sunshine, Fried Green Tomatoes, Muriel's Wedding, Hunt for the Wilderpeople.

Ok, I know, I see the themes, Toni Collette, Taika Waititi, etc. But there are many other movies I've loved (like Beetlejuice). But the point I'm trying to make is that this movie is one that will make you think about the meaning of life, what will come of the human species and tackles big, existential questions in a light, hilarious, clever, thoughtful and thought provoking way. Don't see Barbie again, see this.

What an inspiring movie, both as a fellow independent artist (Thier is an independent filmmaker) and the movie itself which suggests that a better world is not only possible, but the destiny of humankind. I was thoroughly captivated throughout, and appreciated both the humor and the message. Highly recommend!

This movie was one of the best I've ever seen and I'm a stickler for movie quality. Tomorrow Ever After is far from a cliché movie about time travel, but instead a laugh-out- loud sensation about the underlying issues with human society as we know it. Their's portrayal of the character Shaina brings a realness to the screen that most films lack. If you watch movies for their quality and craft, YOU NEED TO SEE THIS MOVIE!
