very happy to report that this is yet another Bong hit. such a delightful time at the movies. hilarious and strange and consistently surprising. works as a goofy out-and-out comedy, a heady sci-fi blockbuster with ideas on its mind, an obvious but effective political satire, and a sweet and affecting romance. pretty rare these days to see a major studio movie as zany and inspired and go-for-broke as this. loved it and it only gets better the more i sit with it.
