if you're on twitter and plan on stealing these and reposting them as your own over there, please DM me for better quality gifs for your theft <3
I'm just here celebrating the stylistic choice of using split screen to capture multiple angles of Rhys Darby at the same time in Relax I'm From the Future
Starting next week in select Canadian theatres: see RELAX I'M FROM THE FUTURE, a hilarious new sci-fi comedy! Rhys Darby stars as a time traveler who charms a jaded drifter with his knowledge of the future for a series of quick payouts.
Relax I'm From the Future is probably the most interesting movie I've watched this year. It's nothing like what I expected from the trailer, but in a great way. It's absolutely one of those movies that's not for everybody, but here are the things that resonated with me:
Comedy of errors
Existentialism. So much existentialism
Rhys Darby playing a truly incredible dumbass (see point 1)
It's the sort of independent film I miss watching, the kind of thing that has a clear idea of what it wants to be. I don't want to say it's unapproachable, but it's not going to hold your hand.
It's available in the US (and probably other places) as a rental or purchase on the usual digital places. If you're in the US and your library subscribes to Hoopla, it's there as well.
