Critics Consensus

Director Katie Holmes takes an appealingly low-key approach to her story, but it isn't enough to offset Alone Together's bland characters and overall predictability.

Richard Roeper

Chicago Sun-Times

Writer-director-star Katie Holmes perfectly captures those early pandemic days in the occasionally heartbreaking and mostly sweet and lovely romantic drama.

Rated: 3/4

Variety

The film’s low-key charms, such as they are, aren’t restrained by adherence to formula so much as its myopic worldview.

The film does not trust its audience enough to draw our own conclusions about the people and their circumstances.

Rated: 2/4

Culture Mix

Alone Together is a trite and misguided dramedy about a would-be couple stuck quarantining in the same house during the COVID-19 pandemic. The only social distancing needed is for viewers to avoid this boring flop that fails to have any romantic sizzle.

Predictable story beats occur, right in line with some of the tragic difficulties many of us faced while in lockdown, and it feels more contrived than authentic.

Easy, enjoyable watch for a weeknight or rainy Sunday movie. Predictable? Maybe, but in a comforting way and very reminiscent of early pandemic times. Endearing and simple in the best way.

Badly written, badly directed, one sentence plot, vanity project with 90% of the movie being close-ups of Katie Holmes making cute faces. I will say that Suri Cruise has a beautiful voice. Her version of Blue Moon is the one good thing about the movie but she's done in the first 2 minutes.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

I loved it so much. Felt very real and romantic. Katie Holmes and Jim Sturgess made these characters so authentic. And they had great chemistry. Loved it.

It was like a boring day in one's own life with a mild excitement that was portrayed horribly bad. Neither characters were interesting nor was it conveyed. I was so bored I couldn't finish it. Even their first kiss was poorly lit and not led up to in an exciting way. The only good character in this film was in fact the air bnb home. Why was this film made? Come on Katie.
