    The last review I put up for this movie was a simple acknowledgement that I don't have a review for it. I watched it almost 3 weeks before my 18th birthday, which was also about two months before my first short was finished.

I tried and failed to stay engaged watching this for the majority of the dialog scenes, although it is bookended by some very engaging moments.

    A little bit of background to talk about this film. I have not seen any of the Toby Maguire or Andrew Garfield Spiderman movies. I have seen the MCU movies,…

    The cost of a life changing experience: 14.69, 15.42 after tax.

    The time it takes: 139 minutes, according to Letterboxd.

    The description of a life changing experience:

    Everything, Everywhere, All at once.





    We live in an age where we can choose reality. Facts are flexible, truth malleable, objective reality questionable at best.

    The perspective we have is a choice. Sometimes we choose what we've been given, sometimes for a good reason, sometimes for no reason. Sometimes we refuse what we're given, sometimes for a good reason, sometimes for a bad reason. Regardless. A choice.

    Everything, Everywhere, All at once. A choice.
