I have no patience with stories where some individual (or group) is tasked with saving the world - galaxy, universe, multiverse, whatever - from some unspeakable metaphysical doom. Nevertheless, at a friend's insistence amidst the pre-Oscars mania, I sat thru the entire 2 hour & 19 minute kaleidoscope of frenzied special effects, chop-socky fights, silly costumes & deep mystical dialog like "You're capable of anything because you're so bad at everything."

Giving credit where it's due, Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan & also Jamie Lee Curtis absolutely earned their Oscars. Their skilled performances furnished what little enjoyment I was able to derive from this piece of dreck. Best picture?? I'm astonished this pointless piece of supernatural fluff was even in the running! One quote from the film itself sums it up for me: "It's all just a swirling pointless bucket of BS."
