Co-writer and co-director of the original Matrix trilogy, Lily Wachowski, revealed that she got to see an advance screening of A24's new filmEverything Everywhere All at Onceand praised the film's message. Everything Everywhere is a comedic, science-fiction action film written and directed by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, collectively known as Daniels, that started receiving critical acclaim after its world premiere at South by Southwest on March 11. The film stars Hong Kong action star Michelle Yeoh (Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings) as Evelyn Wang in a story that combines martial arts with multiverse travel as Evelyn taps into the memories and skills of alternate versions of herself.
This film shares some similarities with Lily Wachowski's Matrixtrilogy, which combined sci-fi with martial arts and created a new type of action film that even had actors learn wire-fu, a stylized version of Kung Fu used in Hong Kong action films. Wachowski was noticeably absent from the production of the most recent Matrix film, The Matrix: Resurrections, which was directed and co-written by her sister Lana Wachowski. When asked about her absence from the Matrix sequel, Lily Wachowski stated that she wanted to take a break from back-to-back film shoots, reconnect with herself as an artist, and recover from emotionally taxing events. She started a return to the industry by writing for the 2019-2021 comedy series Work in Progresson Showtime.
Before this film, Daniels made their feature film debut with Swiss Army Manin 2016, which was met with mixed reviews. Audiences weren't sure how to respond to a film starring Paul Dano and Daniel Radcliffe as a man stranded on an island and a bloated corpse. However, Wachowski's review inspires hope that this film will be a visual treat and a soothing balm to a society amid turmoil. Her phrasing of the film being "super nourishing" suggests that the film will have audiences leaving the theater in a state of contentment rather than confusion as they did with Swiss Army Man.
The film expands from a limited release that started on March 25 to a wide release on April 8 that will allow even more people to witness Daniels' one-of-a-kind creation of Everything Everywhere that even features Jamie Lee Curtis with hot dog hands. The film's trailers and colorful posters have clarified that this movie is unlike anything audiences have seen before. Reviews like Wachowski's can inspire people who may have been on the fence about seeing such a bold original film to experience it in theaters. When film and television are still predominantly filled with reboots, sequels, and IP, it's essential to give wholly original and creative experiments like Everything Everywhere All at Oncea shot.
