Summary

  • Relax, I'm from the Future explores the battle between nihilism and optimism through its characters, offering thought-provoking discussions on the nature of activism and purpose.
  • The comedy in the film benefits from its slower pace, allowing jokes to breathe and build, but the meandering structure and lack of bite in the humor prevent it from fully landing.
  • The film's visual style is well-crafted, using split screens and stylized design to convey playfulness and provide insights into the characters' lives, but the editing style feels underutilized, missing the opportunity for more creativity. It's sweet but lacks substance.
