Critics Consensus

James Sweeney's sophomore outing reveals a twisty, grief-ridden journey of the unexpected -- buoyed by a perfectly sensitive Dylan O'Brien.

Twinless isn’t what you might expect it to be. It’s much more normal, and therefore much more haunting, than that.

Though O’Brien is flexing his emotional range here, his hunky sincerity lands in part because Sweeney remains steady in the opposite registry.

3.5/4

Just trust me when I say that it’s extremely clever and full of surprises, and reinforces that writer, director, and co-star James Sweeney is a bold and refreshing filmmaker to watch.

Such an effective black comedy. It melds so many different themes: grief, longing, loss, the need to connect, against a really well-developed character arc.

8/10

A sharp, darkly funny exploration of grief and identity. Sweeney blends perspectives, humor and emotional tension with precision, while O’Brien delivers one of his most affecting performances. A clever, disarming film about the fragile need to feel whole.
