If you miss Escape from the 21st Century‘s one-night-only theatrical release on June 9, you’ll be able to stream the Chinese genre-bender exclusively on Fandor beginning June 27.
The frenetic amalgam of sci-fi, action, adventure, suspense, coming of age, and comedy is written and directed by Yang Li.
It follows three friends who discover they have the power to travel back and forth 20 years into the future with a sneeze. However, the future is not as good as they hoped, and they need to take on the responsibility of saving the world.
Ruoyun Zhang, Chuxi Zhong, Yang Song, Chenhao Li, Xiaoliang Wu, Yanmanzi Zhu, and Zhengrong Wen star.
I wrote in my review out of BUFF, “Maximalist in every sense of the word, Escape from the 21st Century plays like a hyperactive blend of Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, Everything Everywhere All at Once, Kung Fury, and Stand by Me. It may take a while to get in sync with the Chinese film’s unique rhythms — from shifting aspect ratios to animated effects — but if you’re able to acclimate, a wild ride awaits.”
Here’s Fandor’s full June line-up:
June 6: Ever Since We Love, Body Odyssey, Yokohama BJ Blues, Bad Boy Bubby, Bone, Russ Meyer’s Up!
