Charli XCX: Alone Together is an interesting documentary. I’m a big Charli XCX fan. I think she’s arguably the best pop artist working today. So it makes a lot of sense that I enjoyed this. The film works best when it gets into the creative process of her album How I’m Feeling Now. I loved the album, so it was interesting seeing how it was made. I also liked how the film explored her relationship with her fans. I do have some issues. At only 67 minutes the film does feel rushed. I would’ve liked to see more details about the album creation and more songs than the film shows. Overall, I liked this. While I do think you’ll enjoy it more as a fan I still think it’s worth watching even if you don’t know anything about her. It’s a quick watch but it works pretty well.

Jake Wilson

The Age (Australia)

Whatever you make of Alone Together as a portrait, as a document of the early 2020s, it’s authentic enough. The main question is whether you find it depressing or empowering to watch a pop star slogging away wearily just like anybody else.

Rated: 2/5

Charli XCX’s drive and heart are infectious, even for non-Angels.

Austin Chronicle

The documentary's sugar rush display of healthy fandom is a rarity, giving the film legs outside its pandemic novelty.

The AU Review

Unlikely as it is that Alone Together will prove massively appealing to audiences outside of Charli XCX, her infectious personality and relatability, however, mean it’s incredibly easy to see why she has amassed as many adoring fans as she has.

Rated: 3/5

A celebration of voice when you feel like no one’s listening.

Critic's Notebook

The current relationship between performer and audience, as shown in this movie, is draining and damaging for everyone; and its depressing that no one seems to imagine a better way forward.
