Box office, critic ratings, and audience reaction all point to an absolute winner here. All the word of mouth I've heard has been overwhelmingly positive as well.
One has to wonder if this movie, along with the other successes that have come from YouTube creators, will end up changing the future of the movie industry. Add in the effects of AI on production and there could be a revolution on par with the shift to talkies and color.
