Birithivy Y Palm Springs - 8.5/10. Andy Samberg has had an interesting career since his departure from SNL. He has progressed his career in terms of his comedic timing and range in acting. Palm Springs is a romantic comedy fantasy film which seems super familiar but super inventive. Debut director Max Barbakow delivers a movie similar to Ground Hogday and Happy Death Day but gives his own interesting take on the time loop plot device. The film follows two wedding guests that have entered an endless loop and try to manage their lives living in this endless loop. The main leads of Samberg and Cristin Milioti are charming and great in this film. They do a great job of delivering a stereotypical romcom performance along with some smart spoofing of that very genre. They create likeable characters that we grow to understand as the film progresses. An impressive thing about this movie is that its a lot more deeper than your average romcom film. Discussions about the meaning of life are littered all over the place and create for some interesting conversation in the film. Even the idea of quantum physics is discussed (which you never would see in your average romcom). J.K. Simmons delivers a funny small performance in the film, while the rest of the cast do a great job of playing their characters. This film is definitely a lot more of a mature outing from The Lonely Island crew, and feels like a nice step forward for the team to explore more varieties of comedy. A nice surprise of a film! Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/04/25 Full Review Pat B I don't often get to say this about relatively recent movies (as in, I can't remember the last time) but this is one of my favourites. While I wish they actually shot this in Palm Springs, it's an otherwise perfect movie. Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti are brilliant, and who would ever take issue with JK Simmons. Funny, moving, poignant, and sad - it has it all, and it makes a compelling case that life isn't so different from the characters' never-ending, seemingly purposeless day-on-repeat. Like Nyles, I suspect, I'm happy with repeat watching with this one. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/02/25 Full Review Tatyana M WHAT ABOUT ROY?! HOW THEY GOING TO JUST LET HIM SUFFER LIKE THAT?! Besides this it was an awesome movie..... Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/23/24 Full Review Fer S I thought it was gonna be so cliché and bad, and it ended up being quite great! A few things did not make sense but who cares, logic is not the point of the movie. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/22/24 Full Review Krista S This is in my Top Ten favorite movies. Love the happy backdrop of a wedding that’s just a facade hiding family drama and betrayal. Spoiler alert: More philosophical cousin of GROUNDHOG DAY with excellent soundtrack. Love the cast and award winning cinematography. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/01/24 Full Review Jackson G It's an interesting twist of the time loop story. Having multiple characters stuck in the same loop instead of just one. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/15/24 Full Review Read all reviews
