Even in a rote story, with prosaic direction from Holmes, the lead performances ring true.

With her well-meaning desire to create an inspirational story of survival and redemption, Holmes has kept the entire film extremely low-stakes.

Rated: 2/4

New York Times

A well-meaning but formulaic movie with not enough time to transcend predictable clichés.

Holmes should be commended for wanting to spotlight the condition of the homeless and indigent, but her distance from this population is too great and her artistic skill too limited at this point to save her film from its amateurishness.

All We Had is an ambitious and conscientious feature debut for Holmes.

Touching, well-intentioned, fairly realistic movie that deals with how to survive when one is down to a car and some belongings and has nowhere to go and ends up meeting solidary people on the road. It doesn't totally stand up from the crowd, but is a work of quality by actress-director-producer Katie Holmes, trying to tie her name to more serious work.

All we had starts off decently but unfortunately as the movie goes on the clichés pile up. The performances are well done but the bond between mother and daughter could’ve been better. Some of the characters could have been flushed out better. As a drama it’s an OK watch nothing horrible but nothing very memorable either.

This movie is beautiful in it's simplicity. It's honest and real and I don't get the sense that it was meant to serve anything beyond this, which refreshing. The actors are well-casted in their roles...

This movie nailed the mother and daughter dichotomy. Katie Holmes nailed her role, and the fact that she directed this is a testament to the depth of her talent. My daughter and I watched this movie and could connect with Rita and Ruthie, thankfully not because we've ever been so unfortunate, but because we've had each other through hard times.
