Like many other reviewers I was excited to see this one because of the word of mouth positive reviews. As it turns out without the "multiverse" gimmick there's nothing original or compelling about the story. Michelle Yeoh is great but the absurdity of the plot offers no real payoff in the end. What's more the success of this movie will undoubtedly lead to more use of the lazy multiverse plot device. Why write a coherent story when you can create a world where your characters can just escape the consequences of their actions with no real explanation? While the last hour of the movie is real work to complete there are some nice moments here and there that are pretty typical of any family melodrama. In sum, many will like this film but it will be forgotten with time.
