Palm Springs (2020 Max Barbakow & co-scr)

Andy Samberg (SNL) hooks up with Cristin Milioti (Modern Love, Fargo Season 2, The Wolf of Wall Street, The Sopranos). Turns out he's been stuck in a Groundhog Day time loop - now so's she. Kept getting a hint of Vanilla Sky's 'Abre los Ojos'. It's fun, and works, despite derivative nature of story (Andy Siara and Barbakow), thanks to enthusiastic performances from the leads and J.K. Simmons.

Loved all the beer cans he seems to have permanently in his hands. And when she's messing with the motorbike cop - "I touched your bike!" Very enjoyable.

With June Squibb, Peter Gallagher, Meredith Hagner, Camila Mendes, Tyler Hoechlin.
