About This Movie

We're All Devo is an intriguing mix of music video compilation and narrative film that's kinda hard to pigeonhole. You've got Rod Rooter, played by Michael W Schwartz, sifting through Devo's music videos for Big Entertainment. The humor comes from his dismay that his daughter, Donut Rooter (Laraine Newman), is a die-hard Devo fan. The absurdity of the situation really reflects that Devo vibe—quirky, ironic, and just a bit off-kilter. The pacing can feel a bit erratic, but that fits the theme of cultural disconnection and artistic rebellion Devo is known for. It’s a DIY charm, with practical effects adding a nice touch to the surreal atmosphere that’s inherently Devo.
