Leave your thoughts about Significant Other.
| The New York TimesNatalia WinkelmanSignificant Other does not reinvent the genre, but its narrative flourishes make for an exciting outing. |
| ColliderChase HutchinsonWhen it embraces an eerie and enigmatic tone that subsequently gets turned on its head, Significant Other still boldly proves to be a film worth getting lost in. |
| Paste MagazineNatalia KeoganBerk and Olsen take a big swing by overtly hailing far-flung influences—Spielberg, Aster, Kaufman—without overstuffing their film with incessant references. But they don’t quite follow through on their initial ambition, and the movie feels frustratingly restrained. |
| The A.V. ClubJordan HoffmanAt the halfway mark, a little spice gets shaken into the otherwise thin soup. It’s still far from a must-see, but there are rewards for those who stick to the end. |
| We Got This CoveredMartin CarrSignificant Other is a substandard supernatural hybrid, which wastes the talent of all those involved. Maika Monroe and Jake Lacy may work hard to breathe life into this ponderous fireside fable, but often fall short through no fault of their own. |
| Movie NationRoger MooreA clever (and foreshadowed) touch or two notwithstanding, in the end, the filmmakers’ attempts at misdirecting the viewer’s expectations fail and the movie’s endless “on the nose” characters, moments and lines of dialogue overwhelm it. |
| User Reviewmatthias17Honestly, I did not expect anything but cheap generic scares, but oh boy was i very wrong. This has incredibly clever writing for a short movie and I can't spoil it, but there are many twists that made me drop my jaw and I'll tell you it's worth the time and even money to watch this and be left satisfied. 9/10 exceptional film even if it's not that long. |
| User ReviewBroker2022Solid and well-made science fiction horror, which convinces with a good acting performance of the two main protagonists (Maika Monroe and Jake Lacy) and with a calm camera work. Especially the wide landscape shots are impressive. CGI's are in the upper range and don't disappoint. Furthermore, the surprising twists carry the story and keep the suspense high. |
| User ReviewjzathajeniusFirst half drags a bit but there's a neat twist about halfway through and then you're in for a hell of a ride until the final credits. Better than i expected for sure. |
| User ReviewJLuis_001There were clues, but I still liked how it turned the tables on me. It certainly doesn't do much with its plot, but it's perfectly understandable why and those are points in favor of the film as a whole, because it doesn't needlessly drag out its stay. Significant Other delivers 80 tense and entertaining minutes, direct and to the point. |
