'EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE'
Rated R for some violence, sexual material and language.
What it’s about: A harried laundromat owner discovers she's a part of a huge multiverse during a tax audit.
The kid attractor factor: This is a rather artsy and existential action film, not much appeal for kids beyond the adventure and raunchy humor.
Good lessons/bad lessons: We can ponder a lot of "what ifs" in life, or we can just appreciate the goodness that's right in front of us.
Violence: Extreme martial arts-style violence and fighting.
Language: Some swearing
Sex: References to sex and some nudity/suggestive material.
Drugs: None
Parents’ advisory: This is pretty far-out in terms of its themes and violence. OK for teens.
