The most positive review

The is a real colourful oddball of a movie.
From start to finish we are instantly thrown into Alana´s journey and are taken trough a series of strange situations and developments.
There is no pre-development or little to be told about the main characters history. The movie is a moment-to-moment tag-along story of romance and its ups and downs. However i enjoyed the little humour moments in it and i had to giggle at times.
Catches the 70´s vibe mighty good and i personally enjoyed every moment of it.
Of course the woke community had to react to this movie but there is nothing to be offended about anything.
Enjoy the film.

There’s a lackadaisical feeling that runs throughout writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson’s _Licorice Pizza_. It feels like summer, where there’s nothing in the world but time and friends to spend it with. With a loose narrative and a long run time, Licorice Pizza has moments of magic. It’s a perfect snapshot of wasting lazy, hazy, eternal summer days with your best friends and the crazy ideas you cook up together. Getting to see it on 70mm really adds to this dreamy ambiance.
