But in a way that movies once were described as “Die Hard on a fill in the blank,” certain films now fall under the umbrella of “It’s Groundhog Day in a fill in the blank.” It’s not a dismissal by any means. It’s a way to better categorize a film’s intent. Palm Springs, then, is a raunchy, unfiltered Groundhog Day set at a California wedding. Or, even better, it’s “The Lonely Island tries to make Groundhog Day.” Yes, that sums it up.
