Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter 03/06/2020
There's something wrong when you're watching a post-apocalyptic thriller and all you can think about is how much the central characters would benefit from couples therapy. Go to Full Review
Lisa Kennedy Variety 03/06/2020
A dramatic quietude lifts this indie above the tumult of many exploitative, apocalyptic thrillers. Go to Full Review
Teo Bugbee New York Times 03/05/2020
The saving grace of this often enervating thriller is that Doscher grants time for his actors to build character and intimacy, and both Pinto and Odom offer warm, affectingly natural performances as two people facing the end of their world. Go to Full Review
Fred Topel Showbiz Cheat Sheet 07/12/2020
People are having trouble in 2020 quarantine without government raids taking their women. Imagine if the risk factors were exponentially worse. Go to Full Review
Carla Hay Culture Mix 07/12/2020
Does the world need another bleak post-apocalyptic movie? Not if it's as disappointing as this one. Go to Full Review
Cynthia Vinney CBR 04/06/2020
Yet the film is reminiscent of too many other, better movies and TV shows to be truly immersive, and its themes are too muddled to be truly provocative. While there are intriguing elements here, the whole is less than the sum of its parts. Go to Full Review

Rebecca S. @Becca01 Oct 1 The true strength of Only lies in how it subverts the concept of "protection." Will's desperation to keep Eva safe, by isolating her from the dangerous outside world, subtly transforms into control and imprisonment. This raises the profound question of the film: in a world without women, is a man's "protection" an act of love or one of possession? The movie is a somber and intriguing meditation on sacrifice, freedom, and the nature of a relationship when gender itself becomes a death sentence. See more Christie W Aug 13 Watched this in 2025!! First thought is Covid early 2020 then I looked up this movie was from 2019…seems more realistic than these bad reviews “preCovid” reviews. Worst case scenario, any female survivors would have to hide from the men left on the planet. Freida and Leslie characters gave hope for the next epidemic 😷 and any couples who must do what’s best to survive. Also, Leslie Odom character showed what a good man is supposed to do to keep his loved one alive as long as he did. See more Jennifer H Jun 16 I have never taken the time to write a review in my life, but this movie was SO TERRIBLE I felt I had to. I picked 1 star only because there was no 0 or -100 option. Pretty much every character is the stupidest person on the face of the earth, and I would like to kill them all. However, you can't blame the poor actors, so to whoever wrote this script, please quit your job immediately and look for work bagging groceries. Or washing cars, or bioengineering, anything except writing. I sincerely empathize with others who have unwittingly had their eyes assaulted by this "film." See more Tammy S 10/19/2024 This was one of the worst movies I ever saw. Top ten, wish I could have ninety eight minutes back from my life. To start out, there were so many circumstances where common sense would have given them more of a chance of surviving. Secondly, there was nothing hopeful or happy remotely in this movie. Uou have to at least give your audience something to hope for. Screw you Takashi Doscher- go push your depressing plot somewhere else. See more 04/10/2024 It was a good dystopian movie and for those complaining about the ending… how else could it have ended? I feel the time shifts in the movie made it more interesting. See more 49 L 02/18/2024 The absolute worst movie I've watched in years! I literally created a profile just to rate this movie as low as possible!! This was the most pathetic ending to a movie ever!!! See more Read all reviews
