AD/BC: A Rock Opera is a quirky take on the Nativity story, filtered through the lens of 1972. Richard Ayoade’s direction brings a unique vibe to this musical, creating a blend of absurd humor and poignant moments. The innkeeper’s existential crisis is both relatable and absurd, giving the film a distinct tone that’s hard to forget. The performances are energetic, with catchy tunes and vibrant choreography that feel like a throwback to the era. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it adds to the charm, making the whole experience feel like a wild ride through a familiar tale turned inside out. It’s definitely a film that stands apart from typical holiday fare, with its off-kilter spirit and unexpected depth.
