The writing in this film is strong, but some of it is thematically messy. The acting is incredible, even though there are times the movie seems unfulfilling. Each encounter Wanda experiences could be a larger movie in itself. The existential crisis is handled quite well. The movie benefits from the spontaneous and experimental sex Wanda has with a man and a woman. The plot development is at times weak, but there are extremely good moments.

It has a strange 50's sci-fi plot and the humor is at times random and absurd, but a lot of it is hilarious.

This is a wonderfully wholesome film with well-written characters. The themes of masculinity mixed with the early stages of US capitalism are explored without much exposition.

I like the manner in which the two male protagonists are harmonious. This is a beautiful, poignant and relevant film.

I like the skating performance where she never knows what to do with her hands. What keeps the movie from being great is the inconsistent tone and the…
