Surface Level "People We Meet on Vacation" is Still a Fun Time
Unfortunately, People We Meet on Vacation didn’t hold up quite as well as I’d hoped.

Wen Jin-sheng loved being active from a young age. A motorbike accident during his junior year of high school left him with a comminuted fracture to the cervical spine, paralysis of four limbs, and only his head left to communicate with others. Jin-sheng has since spent 25 years lying in bed. Not only has his family suffered under the financial burden of his condition, but his life has also lost all direction and he has begun to contemplate euthanasia.

Yeah, sure, the movie’s about Carnage. But it’s really about love. A love that defies all odds: the love between a man and his man-eating alien symbiote.
The film exhibits a respect for the craft and an empathy for human tribulations that have historically been ignored.

The Roses is a wickedly sharp marital warfare comedy that transforms domestic dysfunction into high art. Olivia Colman and Benedict Cumberbatch deliver powerhouse performances as a couple whose fairy-tale romance implodes when his architectural career collapses just as her culinary empire takes off. What makes Jay Roach's remake so devastatingly effective is its refusal to pick sides—both spouses are equally sympathetic and monstrous, wielding Tony McNamara's razor-sharp dialogue like weapons forged from shared intimacies. It's a film that dares you to laugh at relationship wreckage while forcing you to confront the uncomfortable truth that the line between passionate love and mutual destruction is terrifyingly thin.
