Critics Consensus

A remarkable feature debut for director/co-writer Filippo Meneghetti, Two of Us tells a deceptively complex love story while presenting a rich acting showcase for its three leads.

Surprisingly, much of the film feels like a thriller, and Meneghetti revels in the genre. Go to Full Review

Tracy H Apr 7 Subtle, powerful love story. Beautifully written. See more Mario C 04/13/2024 Just another terrible script and story. Total waste of time and the worst acting. Dump it. See more Kyle M 03/14/2024 Despite having an irrational presence within, it's a satisfyingly sweet love story that sparks romantic resilience, layered kindly, through exceptionally committed performances. (B+) See more PridePosterStudios 09/20/2023 Supernova lying dead in a ditch See more 08/12/2022 This film is wonderful. Due by Filippo Meneghetti is a successful debut. See more dave d 07/31/2021 When focused on the relationship of Barbara Sukowa (Nina) and Martine Chevallier (Madeleine) the film tells an elegant love story that is subtle and complex and speaks to a different generation. When the movie goes into a bizarre subplot involving a care giver you wonder how something so delicate could be throw so off kilter. It's a film about relationships and taking care of each other and it's charming. The French really can speak to romance! Final Score: 7.7/10 See more Read all reviews
