      Wink D It starts a little slow, but the writing is pretty darn good. The journey is interesting and whether you like the movie or not the writer did an excellent job of pulling it all together for you. I’m not going to ruin anything for you, but it’s worth watching once Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/28/24 Full Review Nunya B Significant Other has an amazing first half which expertly builds tension and subverts expectations with one of the best plot twists I've seen in some time. Unfortunately, soon after the twist the movie takes a massive nosedive due to an abrupt and jarring tonal shift. Just watch up until the 54 minute mark, and pretend it's a short film. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/11/24 Full Review Russell H Started out fine and then got overly ridiculous. It went from potentially scary to a bad comedy. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/29/24 Full Review Terry H I really liked the way this was filmed. The cinematography excellent. Very scenic setting and the cameras captured it in many different ways. I knew nothing of the plot going in and found the first half engaging, but as more and more revelations were made I lost interest. More of a not my cup of tea thing though. Worth watching. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/19/24 Full Review Dave C The relationship and interactions between the two main characters quickly bring you on board, and really help establish a connection early on. There is a suggestion of what's to come at the start of the movie, but for the majority of the time you're wondering and anticipating, whilst following the story. It presents as a lost-in-the-wilderness suspense movie, and that's definitely its bedrock. Whilst the elements of Sci-Fi and inherent comedy are enjoyable, they feel out of sync. Overall, an enjoyable enough movie Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/11/24 Full Review Andres G Pretty good movie with a good twist! Unexpectedly good!

      Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News Never overstays its welcome and builds up to its shocks by having us get to know Harry and Ruth before it turns the tables on the audience Rated: 3/4 Oct 19, 2022 Full Review Jordan Hoffman AV Club If for some reason you haven’t pulled the trigger on Shudder and want to get more out of a Paramount+ subscription, this is better than just staring at a blank wall. Oct 19, 2022 Full Review Natalia Winkelman New York Times The film’s modest facade proves a smoke screen for a rich and eventful ride; one plot development in particular hits with such surprise that it catches the audience far more unawares than the characters. Oct 7, 2022 Full Review Jordy Sirkin Jordy Reviews It A surprising science fiction thriller that serves original twists you won’t see coming. Oct 14, 2023 Full Review Matt Pais MattPais.com Simply not enough in nearly every category. Rated: C Jun 20, 2023 Full Review Dave Golder Radio Times Those who make it through the interminable first 45 minutes are unlikely to care who kills whom in the climactic face-off.
