What is your favorite movie, and why?

--spoilers for Everything Everywhere All at Once and Bullet Train--

I'll go first: Everything Everywhere All at Once.

I love movies that have heart. Movies that are well made, have tons of action, but action with purpose. Another good example of this in my opinion is Bullet Train. Although not as good, Bullet Train has an overall fun and action-packed story with a reason for the action; it also has morals of luck and karma.

circling back to Everything Everywhere, it tells the story of a struggling mother who isn't good at anything useful to her. Her relationship with her daughter and husband is dwindling. Her life changes when she is selected as a last resort by a parallel universe version of her husband to stop a villain aiming to destroy the multiverse. the villain turns out to be a parallel version of her daughter, whos mind has been shattered across the multiverse. The mother voluntarilly shatters her own mind in order to save her daughter, to relate to her daughter for once in their life.

overall, I think Everything Everywhere All at Once is a beautiful movie and a must-watch.
