Palm Springs

Time-travel parables usually portend to be about learning to be a better person, growing or improving in some way, or righting a wrong in the past. But in this funny rom-com, the best bits bask in the characters wasting time, fucking with people, and abusing their time-travel powers. Forget becoming a better person, let’s ruin this wedding for the umpteenth time! But like the best of these time-loops, the learning and growing becomes a priority, and it unfolds in the silliest ways possible. This could almost be classified as a stoner rom-com, but it’s got fine performances and a huge heart at the end. Kudos to Hulu, Lonely Island Classics, et al.
