The website letter boxed has long been used by millions of film fans from all over the world to rate their last seen titles and discover new ones. For many film lovers, it has competition that is too mainstream in their opinion IMDB passed the rank and now many titles on Letterboxd collect even more ratings.

The top 5 already show what kind of cinephile and international audience there is on Letterboxd.
“Everything Everywhere All At Once” on the 1 – only for a short time?
It remains to be seen how long-term this top position of “Everything Everywhere All At Once” is. So far, the film, about which we will tell you a little more in a moment, has only had a very small start in North America after its festival premiere and is therefore only showing in a few cinemas there. That’s why “Everything Everywhere All At Once” has currently been seen primarily by film critics and an arthouse audience.
At the time this article was published, the film was only marked as watched by around 18,000 people on Letterboxd, while the second-placed “Parasite” has over 1.6 million. With the big, nationwide start in the USA next weekend and the subsequent evaluation gradually in the rest of the world, many voices will come. It remains to be seen whether everyone here is so enthusiastic and whether the film can stay at the top of this list for a long time.
Incidentally, “Everything Everywhere All At Once” also received an excellent rating from the aforementioned IMDb (average: 8.9 out of 10), but it had just over 2,000 ratings there so it was not yet a candidate for the top 250 list there. list is.

And to make matters worse, the tax has to be handed in today and her clerk, Deirdre Beaubeirdra (Jamie Lee Curtis), is adamant. But something unusual happens at the agency: her husband Waymond (Ke Huy Quan) suddenly claims to be a Waymond from another universe. Evelyn must help save the entire multiverse threatened by a dark force.
To do this, she has to activate the abilities of her variants from different versions of our universe and gets an insight into how her life could have been if she had made different decisions at one point or another. Between martial arts fights against dark henchmen and the fight for her daughter Joy (Stephanie Hsu), Evelyn soon has big questions. But the multiverse must be saved… and the damn tax won’t take care of itself either…
