Palm Springs Review: Andy Samberg's Time-Loop Comedy Is a Must-Watch Rom-Com
Palm Springs before.Palm Springs, starring Brooklyn Nine-Nine's Andy Samberg, directed by Max Barbakow, written by Andy Siara, and co-produced by Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone, thus making this a "Lonely Island Classics" film, is, as Samberg's character pronounces early on, "one of those infinite time-loop situations you might have heard about." Like Groundhog Day, like Edge of Tomorrow, like Russian Doll, where the hero is reliving the same day over and over again and consequences don't matter much. Palm Springs is going to assume you've seen one of those already, or at least are familiar with the general principle.
