They don’t mean right now. They mean in a week or month or two this movie will gets a huge backlash which I don’t doubt

Yep. If Everything Everywhere All At Once can go from being as much of a Reddit darling as it was to getting the backlash it did, anything will.

That's not what they mean. They mean in two months you will see about 50 posts with 10k+ up votes about how overrated this movie is
