Before We Go

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Chris Evans' directorial debut is modest to a fault, with a threadbare story and minimal style leaving his and Alice Eve's likable performances adrift in New York City with nowhere to go.

3/4
While this kind of tale is a fantasy for the movies, with an emphasis on realism in style and deliberately paced story, "Before We Go" suggests that it really can happen, even just for a fleeting moment. Go to Full Review Ella Taylor NPR 09/04/2015
Slight and familiar but sweet enough for Saturday night, Before We Go is the umpteenth re-up of Brief Encounter, not that there's anything wrong with that. Go to Full Review Christy Lemire RogerEbert.com 09/04/2015

Very little here is special, despite the individual charms of Evans and co-star Alice Eve. Go to Full Review Don Shanahan Every Movie Has a Lesson 02/16/2024

For the new independent film Before We Go, it's Chris Evans's turn to be be a first-timer. The promise is there, but he has a long way to go. Go to Full Review Ruth Maramis FlixChatter Film Blog 06/14/2022
3.5/5
Chris Evans is wise to pick a script that deals with a small cast that takes place over the course of a single night for his directorial debut. Evans and Eve have a pretty sweet chemistry and the tentative romance between them feels earnest. Go to Full Review Mae Abdulbaki Movies with Mae 05/02/2019
3/5
Before We Go is mediocre at best and ultimately a forgettable film. Still, it's also somehow decently entertaining despite its shortcomings and occasionally drawn-out melodrama. A film best seen from the comfort of your own home. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Rob G @Robtomato Dec 31 Well written, subtle, intelligent and easy style to watch. Characters that all can relate to in authentic manner of real life See more Lindi C @LinCar10 Dec 7 This was the longest 2 hour movie with no real plot line. Boring and slow with a forbidden romance that didn't really make sense. The only thing the movie had going for it was that Chris Evans was in it. The movie didn't make sense and had no build up for the supposed romance, until the last 14 minutes of the movie. Waste of 2 hours of time. See more Noel L Nov 4 It's unlike any rom com I've seen with the way it was shot and the story itself See more thiago s @Thiagostone Oct 16 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Lucy D Oct 8 Very cute and feel good movie! Back when rom coms were good and simple minded. There’s obviously some faults in the plot line, but other than that, a great tearjerker if you’re sensitive like me. See more Nigel S Jun 30 The two leads were compelling, the plot was very slow and the ending a little unsatisfactory.... but worth a watch for a gentle evening's viewing. See more Read all reviews
