Tomorrow Ever After

Maybe I don't have a sense of humour but I did not find this film remotely funny, let alone laugh out loud funny.

I found it totally irritating, annoying and depressing.

Maybe it is because I am British and truly believe that generally people are loving and nice to one another. God help Americans if most of them are as cold and unemotional as the film suggests they are.

I get that if someone travels 600 years in the past, they would struggle to fit in and understand everything about their surroundings but surely as an historian, they would know about things like keys, even if they did not use them in their time.

I usually love films about time travel, wondering about how things would be affected back in the future but sorry, this film did nothing for me.

I wasn't especially psyched by the description, and when the movie started, thought it was going to be a clunker. But it certainly wasn't!

The plot is a little off the beaten path, and had me wondering how I would react had Shahna stopped me in the street for help.

It's filled with fantastical, but actually realistic scenarios, and I can't say all of it necessarily seemed likely, but it opened (much like a flower) to be a thoughtful take on our culture, and the world we live in. An opportunity for the fish to see the water they live in, but never see.

I thought there were some genuine laugh-out-loud moments in the film. But also, and mostly real and touching scenes.

For what it was, the acting is top notch, and there are some VERY good performances.

If you need lasers and explosions to enjoy a movie, this probably isn't for you. But for me, it turned out to be a surprisingly wonderful film.

Inspiring and uplifting. Do yourself a favor and go see this film. Hope it gets to be widely distributed. It reminded me of John Sayles wonderful "Brother from Another Planet" in that it shows terrible alienation but also the power of human beings connecting with one another. I also enjoyed seeing the New York City locales.

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!
