What if the Y2K conspiracy theories ending up being true? That's essentially what A24's Y2Kasks and answers in its nostalgic teen disaster comedy.

If you're craving some Chumbawumba "Tubthumping" and killer Tamagotchis, you've come to the right place. The wild millennium stoner comedy is officially available to stream at home this spring — here's everything you need to know to watch.

What is Y2Kabout?

Directed by Saturday Night Livealum Kyle Mooney and written by Mooney and Evan Winter, Y2Kfollows two high school besties — Danny (Julian Dennison) and Eli (Jaeden Martell) who aren't exactly in the cool clique. They decide to crash a New Year's Eve house party on the last night of 1999. Unfortunately, Eli's attempts to get his crush Laura's (Rachel Zegler) attention are stifled when the Y2K bug hits at midnight and the technology turns against them. Computers, ceiling fans, microwaves, and even Tamagotchis become weapons, which leads to a midnight massacre.

Is Y2Kworth watching?

"As a first watch, Y2K is a lot of fun. Its teen cast overall has terrific energy, and a supporting cast that includes Alicia Silverstone, Tim Heidecker, and Mooney — as a burnout video store clerk — brings welcomed microdoses of weirdness," Mashable Film Editor Kristy Puchko writes. "The celebration of all things '00s is undeniably charming, even if used superficially. Jokes come fast and frantic, so even if some don't land, there's plenty of laughs to be had."

While the Rotten Tomatoes critic and audience ratings are pretty bleak — just 42 percent and 52 percent, respectively —  our reviewer writes that it's a good time, despite falling short of greatness.
