Leave your thoughts about Goodbye to All That.
| Cinemalogue.comTodd JorgensonAlthough its premise feels artificial, there's plenty of genuine poignancy beneath the surface of this bittersweet low-budget comedy. |
| The Film StageJohn FinkIt's frustrating when Goodbye to All That runs up against the guardrail, but I'm glad to report it never derails. |
| RogerEbert.comGlenn KennyThere’s a lot of good awkward fun to be had as the viewer simultaneously laughs at Otto’s expense and hopefully commiserates a bit with him. |
| New York Magazine (Vulture)Bilge EbiriRomantic comedies involving people moving on after divorce are a dime a dozen, but rarely are they as generous, sharply observed, and humane as Angus MacLachlan’s Goodbye to All That. |
| McClatchy-Tribune News ServiceRoger MooreIt’s the directing debut of Angus MacLachlan, who wrote “Junebug” and thus gave Amy Adams the perfect introduction to the world. “Goodbye” displays the same canny ear for human interactions, both comical and confessional. |
| New York TimesStephen HoldenGoodbye to All That is very evenhanded in assessing its characters’ flaws, and it never sentimentalizes. |
| The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForePaul Schneider shines in the role, stumbling through a dating world that has changed since his character got hitched, thanks mostly to social media. |
| Entertainment WeeklyLeah GreenblattWriter-director Angus MacLachlan also penned the acclaimed 2005 indie "Junebug," and he aims for the same kind of gentle absurdity here. |
| The PlaylistRodrigo PerezGoodbye To All That is not going to impress the visual, form or style cinephiles of the world, but it really shouldn’t matter. The content is tops. And as an astute and empathetic portrait of human crisis, resolve and survival, it’s a wonderfully authentic and perfectly touching one. |
| Film Journal InternationalRebecca PahleAs such a character-driven piece, Goodbye to All That lives or dies on the talent of its lead actor, and Schneider thankfully delivers. |
