Critics Reviews

John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter 02/20/2020
Hossain's feature debut is more direct than some of its peers on the scrappy sci-fi scene, eschewing trippy concepts and focusing on easily digested relationship issues. Go to Full Review
Anton Bitel Sight & Sound 05/25/2019
His ultimate dilemma... is deftly handled and moving, ensuring that Hossain's 'one last job' scenario, for all its futurist gizmos (temple phones, paralytic implants, etc), stays down to earth. Go to Full Review

After We Leave does manage to elicit reactions, but not often enough, and this inconsistency is glaring. Go to Full Review
Peg Aloi Arts Fuse 02/15/2020
I was blown away by how good After We Leave looks, its subtlety and plausibility and confident simplicity. Go to Full Review
Bradley Gibson Film Threat 12/02/2019
9/10
Once in a while, a budget indie film comes along that makes us glad this art form is still around. After We Leave is a shining example of indie filmmaking at its finest. Go to Full Review
Matt Rodgers Flickering Myth 06/05/2019
Although it does get a little bumpy along the way, Aleem Hossain's feature film debut remains a promising genre entry. Go to Full Review

Brian M Jun 17 Talk about false advertising. Not really much in the way of sci-fi here. Basically, every character is a sadistic asshole screwing over the other characters. Throw in some unnecessary, “edgy” torture porn and revenge porn and you have a massive waste of time. I cannot put into words how much I despise this movie. See more James B 08/23/2024 Dont watch this, its so slow and boring and nothing happens, acting dire, dialogue non existing, fight scenes so bad they are nearly entertaining... See more Aaron G 01/31/2023 Don't remember much but rated it low internally See more arnaldo s 07/31/2022 I waist my time watching this. See more 08/02/2021 82 minutes of hide and seek with no objective except to "tag ya". See more bryan b @heybryan 06/15/2020 Low tech and and understated. What would you do to get off a dying world.
