Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt: Kimmy vs the Reverend (2020)

Two years after Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, we get to catch up with the characters in the interactive movie Kimmy vs. the Reverend. Pretty fun. In a way, it's of a piece with the Sliding Doors episode of the final season, though this time, there are multiple what ifs and you're in control. Getting the branching function to give you ALL the content isn't easy - took me about three hours - and it's possible I missed a few stray lines because there are call backs coded into certain sequences that might depend on early choices. An easy one to miss (thanks for the tip, internet) is this: Try to skip the intro music when Netflix invariably asks. I never do because I love the Kimmy theme, so I needed to be told. Though entire subplots can be changed, the main story leads you to an inevitable ending (just how perfect the ending is does depend on your choices though - I got the perfect one first by asking "what would Kimmy do"), with Daniel Radcliffe effortlessly added to the cast as Kimmy's fiance. A romp that doesn't really feel necessary, though if you're interested in the title's conflict, it does make for extra closure on that front. A lot of returning faces, but they don't really advance the way the star does. 2 years 2 months ago
