It did it for me.
I watched it on the heels of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, which I thoroughly enjoyed; and this - in several senses, a very similar flick - blew it out of the water.
It's certainly sentimental, but I think it earns its right to be. The hotdog fingers multiverse and the buttplug kung fu battle are so bizarre that a little cheap plotting seems like a fair price to pay. Michelle Yeoh is great. "We all have flaws, and mine is being wicked."
James Thurber, The Thirteen Clocks 1951
