We're All Gonna Die

I really don't understand the poor ratings and comments on this film. I think people get a certain idea of the film by reading the synopsis and then are disappointed that the subject doesn't deal explicitly with aliens and the supernatural. I made the same mistake, but I have to admit that this film is a little gem ! I was transported and captivated by the actors, who play their roles to perfection. It's funny, touching and intriguing all at once. In short, my film of the year without hesitation ! And I sincerely hope this film wins some awards.

This was probably the biggest waste of time ever. It didn't make much sense the dialogue was as bland as possible and there is no explanation of what is going on. It feels like there could possibly be an interesting concept here but this is the worst execution they could have done. I get that it is an indie film but it is still God awful by that standard. With other indie films at least there is some value and interesting dialogue occasionally but this has none of it and clearly they had a somewhat good budget because the effects are decent and the props were somewhat decent, but clearly the director doesn't know how to direct, I hope they learn because again it is an interesting concept.

An ambitious blend of slice-of-life, road trip, and science fiction, infused with some genuine intents at its core, which I wholeheartedly admire.

While it might not be the most sophisticated or high-concept feature, the messaging resonates well. The chemistry between the lead characters, Thalia and Kai, portrayed by Ashly Burch and Jordan Rodrigues, is commendable as they effectively strikes the right emotional chords.

If only the comedic moments had landed more effectively and the balance between the contrasting tones been nicer, I would have been more generous with my rating.

Nevertheless, I liked it for what it wanted to convey and would definitely recommend it to anyone in search of a 'comfort' feature, this might soothe your mind.

We're All Gonna Die is one of those rare films that doesn't just pass the time - it grabs you and doesn't let go. I went in expecting something good, but what I got was a masterclass in emotional storytelling: funny, sad, serious, and somehow still uplifting.

It's raw, real, and incredibly well-balanced - the kind of film that makes most recent releases feel like filler by comparison. Every scene landed, the pacing was perfect, and the team behind this absolutely smashed it.

Genuinely one of the best things I've watched in ages, and more people need to see this.

Bravo, and huge props to Freddie, Matt and the whole team!

In full honesty, one hour in, and I wasn't sure if this movie was going to really "pay off"; a burden I put on the film, not something promised to me. The characters didn't click with me immediately, no matter how hard I tried. Not to say the performances were bad, Ashley Burch is a stand out for sure, but the tone felt a little disjointed/inconsistence to me. My mind was changed during the climax of the film. The last 20 minutes of succinct story telling, beautiful cinematography and clever use of special FX ties everything together beautifully. I was crying, smiling and laughing by the end of the journey. As the credits rolled I felt like I had watch two people grow, change, and mature together; An absolute joy of a film! I want more Sci-Fi RomComs from Matt and Freddy; please and thank you!

P. S. Composer Maxton Waller's music throughout the film was absolutely incredible; very reminiscent of Shane Curruth's work in Upstream Color. Not similar in tone per se, but in his ability to match each "short" musical piece and interlude with the scene presented on screen. The backing track was always so expressive and perfectly emblematic of the emotions depicted. A+!
