Kristy Puchko CinemaBlend Courteney Cox Owes The World An Apology For Her Directorial Debut Just Before I Go May 12, 2021 Full Review Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times Anchored by a nicely understated performance by Seann William Scott, "Just Before I Go" effectively juggles a wealth of genuine, at times profound, emotion with quite a bit of nutty-raunchy humor. Apr 23, 2015 Full Review Stephen Holden New York Times Lurches along a wobbly line between salacious comic nastiness and nauseating sentimentality. Apr 23, 2015 Full Review John Noonan FILMINK (Australia) At times, it's hilarious, but the tone changes so much that it becomes hard to keep up. Nov 12, 2015 Full Review Ethan Alter Film Journal International Cox must have seen something in this screenplay that encouraged her to film it, but whatever that critical element was, it's not apparent in the finished product. May 6, 2015 Full Review Daniel Eagan Film Journal International Cox must have seen something in this screenplay that encouraged her to film it, but whatever that critical element was, it's not apparent in the finished product.

Michelle N Thoroughly enjoyed this movie, Sean William Scott played his character perfectly. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/28/25 Full Review Dan G When is having a little fun with the thought of suicide. Obviously my expectations were low so maybe I rated higher than deserved, but a good watch all together. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/26/25 Full Review kristin b Just Before I Go broke my heart and soothed it. If you don't embrace this film, you haven't been there. Watch it. Cry a little. Be grateful for every reason you find to stick around. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/25 Full Review Rock W The acting and story are good. The delivery wasn't the best, but everybody trashing it, come on, how can you not relate to it? Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/15/24 Full Review Liam D It doesn’t know if it wants to be a heartbreaking drama or goofy comedy and comes off as a bit lopsided Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/27/24 Full Review Derek D This movie is very underrated. It was a wonderful look at all the different ways lives can be complicated, screwed up and complex beneath veneers of normalcy. It gave lots of lighthearted examples of how life is never as straight forward as it looks. And finally, it showed how that's okay. It was just the right touch of comedy in a genuinely heartfelt movie. Sean William Scott is a better actor than people give him credit for. It was great getting to see him in a non-typecast role. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/16/24 Full Review Read all reviews
