Leave your thoughts about Before We Go.
| Tribune News ServiceKatie WalshWhile this kind of tale is a fantasy for the movies, with an emphasis on realism in style and deliberately paced story, "Before We Go" suggests that it really can happen, even just for a fleeting moment. |
| Dear Cast and CrewDi GoldingEvans and Eve are well-paired here, and handle the dialogue-driven film with natural ease and subtlety. Both characters are given equal weight and depth, with neither falling into rom-commy conventions. |
| The New York TimesBen KenigsbergThe chemistry makes the movie’s pleasures easy to surrender to, albeit fleetingly. |
| The PlaylistKevin JagernauthWhen the script isn't working, Evans turns towards the soundtrack and leans on indie rock when he can (and when the low-budget picture can afford it) to attempt to do some of the emotional lifting. |
| Blu-ray.comBrian Orndorf"Before We Go" contracts a case of the cutes one too many times, hunting for a way to be likeable and romantic when the material demands restraint, trusting in the nature of basic human decency. |
| NOW TorontoNorman WilnerUnfortunately, Before We Go is not worthy of its director/star. |
| New York PostSara StewartSunk by too much schmaltz (even for the Lower East Side). |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid Nusair...a flat, poorly-conceived idealized romance between two less-than-captivating protagonists. |
| Paste MagazineNick Schager[The film] confirms that Chris Evans, aka Marvel's patriotic do-gooder Captain America, is cut out not only for amenable superheroism, but for romantic-comedy stardom as well. Unfortunately, his second go-round in that genre is an uneven vehicle at best. |
| Toronto StarLinda BarnardA lightweight, aimless romance where Evans makes his directing debut and also stars. |
