The scrappy film from Curry Barker, a breakthrough director from the YouTube space, seems to have everything it takes to make it in the current Hollywood landscape: originality (something severely lacking these days), dynamite performances (shoutout Inde Navarrette for that haunting smile), meme-able moments (for cultural impact), and word of mouth (hence why we can\u2019t stop talking about it).

John Magaro stars as &#8220;Dad,&#8221; the exasperated single father of Ella (Molly Belle Wright) and Charlie (Wyatt Solis), who finds himself backed into an inescapable corner \u2014 still reeling from the loss of his wife and now being evicted from their home. Dad sets off on a road trip with his two kids (and their adorable dog), trying to outrun the sad reality of their life, which he tries his hardest to mask. As we tag along, you immediately empathize with Dad; in the hands of Magaro, who viewers also fell in love with in <em>Past Lives<\/em>, you can&#8217;t help but root for him, hoping he finds a way to not just provide for his kids but turn all of their lives around. He does have a plan, though we don&#8217;t know it until the final moments of this heartbreaking tale of desperation, sacrifice, and love. <em>\u2014G.H.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\"><em>Project Hail Mary<\/em><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Ryan Gosling in 'Project Hail Mary'Credit: Jonathan Olley\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/M1IpxPIuH_UOjSDBhe4TwA--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTY0MDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/entertainment_weekly_785\/399dceb3a554b9a0e174f204f796d034\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-0 size-full\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-3 right-3 rounded-full bg-primary p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-primary\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"flex-none size-4 -scale-x-100 text-primary lg:size-6 [&amp;_path]:fill-current\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M3.1 3.1V11h1.8V6.314l5.392 5.393 1.415-1.414L6.313 4.9H11V3.1zm17.8 17.8V13h-1.8v4.686l-5.393-5.393-1.415 1.414 5.393 5.393H13v1.8z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal dialogue\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed bottom-0 left-0 right-0 top-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-primary hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p><i>Ryan Gosling in &#8216;Project Hail Mary&#8217;<br \/>Credit: Jonathan Olley<\/i><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/person\/ryan-gosling\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Ryan Gosling;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Ryan Gosling&quot;}\" class=\"link \">Ryan Gosling<\/a> brings some of his Kenergy to this sci-fi comedy epic, based on the novel by Andy Weir.
