"The trend that was hot for all of five minutes in the wake of Michel Gondry's underrated Be Kind Rewind found folks doing lovely, lo-fi remakes and sequels to their favorite movies, and that spirit also informs his upcoming, mysterious sci-fi movie (of sorts) The We and the I. But Gondry has found time in his schedule to knock out another sweded movie, and it's pretty great."
