I really expected to like this.. But I just could not connect with the story. I even fell asleep for a little bit.. Found it insanely dull.

Maybe I have watched just too many other 'queer' films.
The cinematography was beautiful, but it just was not enough to hook me into the story that felt a little over told.

I think if you've not watched many queer films, it may speak to you, but if you've maybe watched far too many, this may feel rather generic.

8/10 great

Now this isn’t everyone’s cup of tea and this will be for a number of reasons, be it the sexuality or the holding on to the past and love ones that have gone.
But this is a very clever and intriguing movie that plays out at its own speed and you just have to go along with it and wait to see where it’s going to end up.
I have to say I didn’t see the ending coming and I’m normally very good at this, plus to have the table turned on you twice in the last few moments is ingenious.
The very ending, we’re the song tells you the meaning of the whole storyline is again very clever.
It’s not a highbrow movie, but you have to be able to think out of the box and to be able to interpret what your seeing and read into what’s being shown to you.
As I said this won’t be for everyone, especially those that have to have it spelt out to them.
I definitely will revisit this movie in the future and probably will get even more from it the next time round.

Another depressing gay [spoiler]ending[/spoiler]. Ground breaking. :disappointed:

I am not sure what to say. The trailer and synopsis kind of spoilers some things but generally it was a really good movie. Cinematography was really great. The story was immensely sad though, and so much drama and so dark. It was almost too much for me.

Not really my cup of tea.

oh this was boring as hell i'm so so sorry

I'm confused and sad. Great acting!

All of Us Strangers feels like a spiritual follow-up to last year's Aftersun. Not only because it features Paul Mescal dancing in a club, but also because it tries to bridge that unknowable bridge between child and parent. However, whereas Aftersun feels like it almost puts a mirror up to the viewer, asking them to paint in the emotional crevasses of the movie themselves, All of Us Strangers seems to be a much more specific experience centered around queerness and loneliness revolving around Andrew Scott's character. Personally speaking, this experience is one that does not resonate as strongly with me, so the pathos and punches in the movie don't always land as strongly for me. Regardless, there is a strong intimacy to this movie, developed through phenomenal acting from our main 4 cast members, and what will probably stick with me are some of the beautiful scene transitions, even if I think overall the movie is not as compelling for me as I think it will be for those whose life experiences parallel the character's more closely.

Beautiful story, good soundtrack and amazing acting. I still have trouble figuring out the timeline between events though.

A very raw, freeflow and tender film. I was hit by Harry's lamentation that he has drifted to the edge of the family, and coming out as gay only put a name to this situation that’s meant to be. So sad a situation, and confronted by many LGBT person at the early stages of their lives.

Another gay tragedy -_-
I'm gay and tired of this

The most interesting thing about All of Us Strangers is actually the way it’s billed in the fantasy genre, because there’s a very obvious second interpretation that has nothing to do with the supernatural, and if I hadn’t seen the “fantasy” label then I genuinely wouldn’t have known that it’s intended to be watched as such.
That makes it a very interesting film to watch because you’re constantly confronting yourself throughout that you’re trying to watch it through a scientific lens, and maybe you shouldn’t be. At the end of the day I still can’t say for sure which way the pendulum swings, but I don’t really have a problem with that.

The story itself feels like it leans more into psychology than fantasy; All of Us Strangers visualizes a manifestation of grief and processing, and whatever the brain needs to do to get through that. For all intents and purposes, it is incredibly human.

Andrew Scott and Paul Mescal portrayed their characters beautifully and with such vulnerability, I have nothing but praise for them.

Like lemon peels in a bin behind the bar: All of Us Strangers is recycled muck with a twist.

A gay screenwriter and director writes and directs a movie about a gay screenwriter's youth and sex life. It's skillfully filmed and beautifully acted S.E.P. (Someone Else's Psychotherapy).

Directing & writing so intimate yet universally relevant to the human experience, four outstanding performances, beautiful crafts, an ending that’ll leave people to discuss & dissect, and countless tearjerking moments. A great film. Bravo to everyone involved.
