    Not content with making a modest comedy about stylish shoplifters, Boots Riley’s imaginatively outlandish fast-fashion satire I Love Boosters continues the director’s penchant for maximalist social statements. Riley’s visually loud, pro-union story concerns three…

    Stroke of genius to have all of this movie’s sci-fi exposition be delivered by a stoned Eiza González

    I’m a big fan of all this whimsical chaos—very Problemista. More movies critiquing luxury consumerism while still being fun and a little indulgent, please!!

I find it hard to wish Riley would rein himself in when the excess is so much a part of the film’s joy.
