I was eager to watch this movie based on the glowing reviews I read and heard. However, I was disappointed. 'All of Us Strangers' reminds me of the general reception/reviews of the 2011 movie 'Weekend' that everyone raved about, but left me feeling..... underwhelmed. I like Andrew Scott, and was pleasantly surprised to see Jaime Bell as the father but I couldn't get into the movie due to the various holes in the storyline. The main character has revealing conversations with his dead parents, but how he got to that point was never explained. Was it visions? Or some like 'The Sixth Sense's? Did he have to go into his childhood home for them, and was it occupied/vacant? Were there owners? I just couldn't get past that. His relationship with his neighbor was interesting and handled/acted superbly. The initial love scene was tastefully done, and should be a blueprint for future LGBT movies. Overall - good acting, but the storyline was lacking.

The trailer for this film, although accurate, does not prepare you for the love story of this movie. A dancer's finds herself stranded on a beach, and calls her partner to arrange her brother to pick them up so they could make it to a contest being held that morning.

The movie focuses that chance meeting of both men, the easy yet personal banter they have, and the events that follow.

The chemistry between the main actors is the draw to the film. You can feel the growing attraction between the two. That's what's moves this film, making it stand out against others with nudity and "intimate" moments.

I love this film, and rank it right there with another awesome movie - 'God's Own Country'.

The movies was too dark. Literally. Couldn't see the sets half of the time. The plot was complicated. They were trying too hard for realism. The appeal of Batman were the toys and gadgets, the Batmobile, etc. Things that made an ordinary person more than human. That was what made Batman popular and enduring. THIS played like a murder mystery with a hardened private investigator chasing clues....in costume. If I was a bystander at one the crime scenes and saw this Batman I'd think "what a weirdo!". Lost interest a third in and use it as background noise. I still have no idea what the plot was abour. Those that say it's the best Batman movie needs to leave their mothers basement more often. I'd rather watch Law & Order.
