‘Instant Life’ Review: A24’s Sea Monkey Docuseries Is Instantly Forgettable [Sundance]

Most of us who grew up pouring over the pages of many a yellowed comic book of the mid-20th century will likely recall any number of unusual ads gracing the back cover of “Spider-Man” or “Detective Comics”; such ads touted the promise of pills that guaranteed heightened strength, home hypnosis kits and, perhaps most legendary, inexpensive toys ranging from the likes of the mighty X-Ray Specs to the admittedly ridiculous sea monkey phenomenon that somehow remain a tiny part of the pop culture lexicon to this day.

Director Mike Mills Talks ‘C’mon C’mon’ & Joaquin Phoenix Trying To Politely Turn Down The Role [Interview]

At the risk of being a little gauche and starting a piece quoting your own review, to paraphrase myself regardless, with A24’s lovely black and white comedic drama “C’mon C’mon,” filmmaker Mike Mills “solidifies his position as one of our greatest cinematic humanists, filmmaking empaths, and chroniclers of emotive struggle.” It’s that good, that probing of the human condition, and deeply soulful, melancholy, funny, and affecting in the way all Mills films are.
