Review of Everything Everywhere All at Once

I've never been a fan of "multiverse" movies and superhero movies, and this Oscar winning movie did nothing to convert me. If anything, it confirmed why I despise those movies so much. A simple story of an angry young woman trying to get her mother to approve of her and her lifestyle. That's the plot, but it takes the audience on this surreal journey that includes giant bagels and fingers turned into hot dogs. At one point I thought I was watching the Monkees' movie "Head" again, which runs circles around this movie (and "Head" was not exactly a great movie). Jamie Lee Curtis, after a career of playing Laurie Strode at least 8 times, and the occasional comedy, drama, and action flick, won an Oscar for what must be her worst performance (and I've seen "Perfect.") And to add to that, Michelle Yeough wins Best Actress? For this thing? (She deserved it for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon). I forced myself to watch the whole thing but it was agonizing. A movie that makes me want to stop going to the theater for at least a few years.
