It had some good parts, but the ending kinda felt like everyone just boxing up their genders again as the status quo instead of being a society that valued people for more than just their genitals. I kept waiting for the part where they realized equality was what they should strive for to help lead the human world in the best direction.

The queer-coded Allen felt a bit on the nose for 2023, too. I liked parts of it, but it felt very...20th-century feminist and straight to appeal to larger audiences.

I think the part with Margot and the grandmotherly lady at the bus stop was my favorite part. Peaceful, sweet, and exactly where the movie felt like it was heading in a good direction (in addition to the heaven and tearoom scenes). The musical parts were a great reminder of the movies from long ago, and also a great step in the right direction.

I liked Allen so much. Only cool character that isnt overacting
