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.

It's too bad that this movie got categorized under romance, comedy, and sci-fi. Because those are just categories of what the characters experience. It is just a really great film about people. And how they deal with life and the stuff behind them and how itheir choices impact the stuff in front of them. You could take out the "sci-fi" event that they experience and substitute it for some present day tragedy like a plane crash or a mass shouting and it would still be about how people deal with life. There are so great themes interwoven that I won't spoil, but they're lovely. The lead male actor could've been stronger with his performance but I can ignore that. It's a great watch if you have time to just sit back and enjoy a good story.

I rarely watch anything outside of mystery/horror and true SciFi. I only watched this because I was intrigued by the idea of a teleporting alien spike. So for me to come write a review of this movie means this movie had a impact. It honestly really is just a drama, with a little comedy, a little romance, and even less SciFi. But the ending point of it was sooo good. The leads are okay, not fantastic, and there was an awkwardness that I don't feel was intentional, it kinda felt like young acting jitters. Nothing spectacular about the scenery other than the spike. The music was appropriate but nothing great. There was not ONE particular thing that stood out, but when it all came together at the end, I felt content and glad that I watched this movie.

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!

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.
