Tomorrow Ever After

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.

This movie was one of the best I've ever seen and I'm a stickler for movie quality. Tomorrow Ever After is far from a cliché movie about time travel, but instead a laugh-out- loud sensation about the underlying issues with human society as we know it. Their's portrayal of the character Shaina brings a realness to the screen that most films lack. If you watch movies for their quality and craft, YOU NEED TO SEE THIS MOVIE!

Tomorrow Ever After had me unexpectedly laughing, which I didn't expect going into the film. I laughed at the peculiar ways we separate ourselves from each other, to create distance instead of connection. I was touched by the interactions between the main character and the other characters and how her presence in their lives affected them. It's definitely an important film for our times that will make you question what else is possible for the human species.

"I keep making mistakes. I don't know how to live here."

The main character says in one scene when she keeps being met with hardship & resistance, simply by being herself (which was perfectly fine where she is from). We all have felt like we don't belong at some point. Or that we aren't enough or questioned ourselves, our gifts and superpowers (aka flaws) and often times adjust ourselves to fit in, to get by, to make our lives (or relationships) seemingly easier.

This film was definitely refreshing, leaving you reflecting on your life, your choices, how you interact with yourself, others, and the words…. The impact of it all. It was just so rich in simply being human. Connection is what really makes the world go round, up and down, and even wobble at times!! And this film shows our connection and disconnection in a way that really leaves you with yourself.

Thank YOU Ela!!!

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.
