It’s a remarkable achievement – a raw and potent piece of storytelling that grabs you by the heart and doesn’t let go.

Haigh is a tremendously lyrical filmmaker, and All of Us Strangers unfolds in a space that seems like a dream, or a hallucination, pulsing with the rippling soul rush of love turning a life from monochrome to full color.

Told with economy, and evading any easy genre classification - it’s part romance, part fantasy, part thriller, and more besides - it’s a very moving piece of work, and a testament to the power of love.

Emotional and lyrical, All of Us Strangers is a meditation on what it means to really be a human.

Even in its overwhelming melancholic power, Haigh has made something therapeutic—about longing and holding on and learning to let go.

Part psychological thriller, part moody thought piece, part romance, “All of Us Strangers” feels like a feature-length update of a classic “Twilight Zone” episode, and we mean that as a high compliment.

The film seems like it should be this deeply personal exploration of one's own struggle to connect with others because of an inability to fully accept themself, but in practice, "All of Us Strangers" plays more like a sentimental novel you'd find at an airport newsstand. It's made with far more skill and care than those typically are, but at its core, they contain about the same amount of emotional insight.

One of the best movies I ever saw. Emotional and resonant. Exception performance by Andrew Scott.

A couple of intimidating sex scenes. Good and, unfortunately, sad catch on **** people. A little bit of nostalgia, longing for the painful past. The movie's "world is changed, but scars are still there" viewpoint got me good. Adam's conversation with her mother is a well-written powerful scene.

(Mauro Lanari) "The [healing or even salvific] Power of Love"? Starting over from my last review, Rimbaud, at whom his lover Verlaine had fired two pistol shots wounding him in the left wrist, wrote at the age of 19: "L'amour est à réinventer". Unlike that young Frenchman of almost two centuries ago, Haigh has a much less mature and too melodramatic idea of lyricism, nor is he interested in abandoning lamentocracy to seek a new agapelogy even though the prerequisites for an unprecedented paradigm are available.

I don’t know why people are pretending to love it. Beyond Andrew Scott’s acting, the rest of it was predictable, caricature-y, boring, lacking in emotion.
