Alice (Keke Palmer) yearns for freedom as an enslaved person on a rural Georgia plantation under its brutal and disturbed owner Paul (Jonny Lee Miller). After a violent clash with Paul, she flees through the neighboring woods and stumbles onto the unfamiliar sight of a highway, soon discovering the year is actually 1973. Rescued on the roadside by a disillusioned political activist named Frank (Common), Alice quickly comprehends the lies that have kept her in bondage and the promise of Black liberation. Inspired by true accounts, Alice is a modern empowerment fable tracing Alice's journey through the post-Civil Rights Era American South.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Alice's well-intentioned attempt to reckon with racism sadly misses the mark on multiple levels, although Keke Palmer's performance remains a consistent bright spot.

It's kick-ass and kind of funny, but real serious. Go to Full Review Odie Henderson RogerEbert.com Mar 18, 2022
0/4
Alice is so skittishly afraid to offend that it borders on parody. Go to Full Review Noel Murray Los Angeles Times Mar 18, 2022
While Ver Linden’s ideas never quite coalesce, “Alice” is at least consistently challenging. Go to Full Review Damon Wise Deadline Hollywood Daily Sep 16, 2023
For all its flaws, though, Alice is consistently interesting, and Palmer has a lot to do with that, carrying the film with grace and simplicity in a part that could conceivably finished another actor altogether. Go to Full Review Zoë Rose Bryant Loud and Clear Reviews Sep 1, 2022
2.5/5
Alice‘s scattershot screenplay causes storytelling stumbles here or there, but Keke Palmer’s persistently persuasive lead performance (somewhat) steadies the ship. Go to Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies Aug 16, 2022
1.5/5
A movie chock-full of squandered potential. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
