What makes 'Alice, Darling' so engaging is the central theme of women supporting women, and just how powerful friendship and community can be.

Full Review | Original Score: 8/10 | Mar 15, 2023

... At times merely functional — a public-service broadcast on how to recognise nonphysical abuse. But Alice's bond with her two best friends is well drawn, and the trio's showdown with the boyfriend has just the right touch of melodrama.

Anna Kendrick gives one of her very best performances in Mary Nighy's cautious thriller about the control we allow ourselves to be put under in the name of misbegotten comfort and routine.

Take out all the red herrings in this 89-minute navel gaze, and you’re left with a 90s teen soap subplot featuring wholly unlikeable characters from stem to stern.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 10, 2023

“Alice, Darling” sets out to shine an honest and earnest light on the issue of psychological and emotional abuse....Mary Nighy takes this undeniable potent subject matter and examines it from a distance, yet with remarkable clarity.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 9, 2023

Alice, Darling is a decent enough debut, sincere and heartfelt, shot competently, with an important message that isn’t quite matched by its quality.

Full Review | Feb 6, 2023

The multi-talented Kendrick can't save this well-intended project from being a stultifying bore.

Full Review | Original Score: B | Feb 3, 2023

Alice, Darling isn’t fun, but it is intensely interesting. And the reason is Anna Kendrick.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 3, 2023

Mary Nighy ramps up the intensity, revealing the paradox of an abused woman who is smart, educated and financially independent but gives in to her abuser. Women in such relationships will relate to Alice, and Kendrick’s unhinged performance nails it.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Feb 3, 2023

The film wraps things up a bit too tidily at the end, but the power of Alice’s story remains undiminished.

There may be a monster on the loose in Alice, Darling, but it’s not that kind of cabin in the woods movie.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 25, 2023

This movie would be a lot more relevant if it were a better film.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 24, 2023

Alice, Darling feels like an authentic depiction of domestic abuse. It’s not always physical fights and women cowering with bruises, it’s sometimes a person telling their partner they should diet, that they are not good enough, that they are a bad person.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 24, 2023

Zeroing in on internal thoughts and feelings rather than outward plotting or melodrama, this film finds its intensity in the emotions it sparks for the viewer.
