Review of Asteroid City (2023) by Somanysaltysjw2 — 28 Jun 2023

Exhilerating and powerful.

I found incredible comfort while diving into all of the different depths and layers of this movie. There was never a dull moment. Never a self-explanatory one either. Everything could be picked up apart and analyzed, while it didn't necessarily have to. Every second is just as beautiful as the last, from beginning to end. In my mind this movie unfolded as a true and true metaphor for how one's inner child experiences grief (or at least wishes it could). A big interpersonal bubble in which everything seems a bit too strange to be real, but produces big questions, zero answers. Feels like a vibrantly oversaturated bandade has been placed on my heart.
