Critics Consensus

Together is a little too effective at recreating the lockdown experience, although Sharon Horgan and James McAvoy are an appealing duo.

Jesse Hassenger

AV Club

When Together confronts the helpless living nightmare of a pandemic's ongoing irresolution, it taps into a scary rawness.

Observer

The writing is strong and the two actors have a surfeit of both chemistry and charisma.

Rated: 3.5/4

Mark Feeney

Boston Globe

"Together" should feel stagey: two dominant characters, a single shared space, near-constant dialogue. It doesn't, thanks in part to how Daldry and Martin keep the camera in frequent motion.

Rated: 3/4

The real coup here, though, is the two actors that have been cast as She and Him... Sharon Horgan and James McAvoy make the most of the opportunity to showcase both their basic acting chops and their undeniable screen presence and serious chemistry.

Rated: 3/5

Together is a monotonous affair with little to add to either the pandemic or relationship genre.

That it all works is down Dennis Kelly’s smart script, which throws in some surprising and unexpected twists, Stephen Daldry’s taut direction and the braveness of McAvoy and Horgan to just lay their emotions bare.

If you can sit through more than a minute of a Transformer or Vin Diesel shoot 'em up, don't waste your time here. If you like brilliant writing and acting, this is the one for you. I loved it!

I go to movies to escape the pandemic. This was no escape at all. It was worse then watching the news. Depressing...

You know that awkward feeling you get when an unhappy couple unloads their dirty laundry on you during dinner? If you enjoy that awkward feeling then this is the movie for you. Does it improve? I don’t know as my wife and I left the theater early

It's hilarious, heart wrenching and sweet. Pretty much sums up 2020, and you get to stare deeply into James McAvoy's eyes for an hour, while he uses his real accent.

If you loved Horgan in ‘Catastrophe’ you’ll love this movie! And McAvoy is fabulous as always oscillating between the evil characters he’s played & laugh out loud comedy! Thanks to both for doing this movie & letting us laugh, cry & release some tension about this awful pandemic. Bravo!!!

I never grew interested in whatever these two were reminiscing about or arguing about. I left before it ended because their chatter was exhausting
