100A film that with quiet confidence creates a fragile magic.
-
100Totally original yet filled with familiar human frailties, "Everyone" leaps off the screen to become one of those rare movie-going experiences.
-
100Every so often, a movie blindsides you, leaving you feeling different, enlightened, possibly even improved. Me and You and Everyone We Know is such a movie.
-
100Definition eludes the delicate pleasures of this marvelous, idiosyncratic movie collage.
-
100By turns comic and tender, tragic and absurd. But throughout, it gives off what is surely one of the greatest of moviegoing pleasures -- the sense of an artist seeing the world from some private vantage that is as original as it is truthful.
-
90Optimistic and humanistic to the core, Me and You and Everyone We Know is a paean to perseverance and finding ways to cope.
-
90It seems quite possible that Me and You marks the arrival of an artist who may affect--disturbingly yet helpfully--films and audiences to come.
-
88Performance artist Miranda July hits a grand slam as the writer, director and star of her first film. It's a moonbeam romance laced with startling wit and gravity.
-
88It's a familiar dance, but something only July could invent, a vignette much like her characters: beautiful, flawed, organic--fine alone but better with the others.
-
88Although Me and You and Everyone We Know requires patience on the part of the viewer - to get past the faux naivete of its grown-up characters, to get past its deadpan arty tone - Miranda July's feature debut is worth the time.
-
88Remarkably, ''Me and You" doesn't shock so much as soothe.
-
88Disturbing, maddening, often confusing, but also charming, engaging and challenging in all the best ways.
-
83Refreshing and disorienting movie.
-
83A playfully offbeat, willfully wide-eyed tale of lonely, inarticulate people looking for connection in a disconnected world.
-
80A frank look at 21st century mores, this succeeds in saying new things about anxieties as old as the human race.
-
80A quirkily funny, startlingly assured comedy-drama.
-
80Though her movie has a clear narrative line, and might even be classified as romantic comedy, it is also a meticulously constructed visual artifact, diffidently introducing the playful, rebus-like qualities of installation art to the conventions of narrative cinema.
-
80Has a flavor all its own-sweet, whimsical, homegrown. A quirky romantic for the 21st century, July finds humor and magic in places where no one has looked before.
-
80Admirable and wondrously strange--as well as gorgeous, funny, dreamlike, mesmerizing, squirmy, and occasionally annoying.
-
80The distinction of this lovely, if slightly tentative, debut feature is its willingness to set forth mysteries of the human heart without solving them; everyone's fate stays unsealed.
-
80Hums with compassion for its outlandish, lonely but always sweet characters.
-
80A wise, funny film about the little leaps of faith it takes to just get through the day.
-
75A mixed package, but often fun to watch.
-
75Offbeat, daring, and the kind of offering Hollywood will never come close to embracing.
-
75Will make you glad to be living on the same planet as Miranda July.
-
70A real treasure in the guise of yet another Sundance dramedy.
-
70July's witty ode to only-connecting sustains a delicate tone of pensive whimsy.
-
70Brings a fresh perspective to age-old human dilemmas.
-
70These characters are touching and sympathetic to the extent that they're lonely, and that's what most of them are most of the time.
-
67July sees the world in a most unexpected way, and it's a shame that Me and You's preciousness sometimes overwhelms that uniqueness of vision.
-
63Me and You and Everyone We Know brings to mind the work of happily downbeat, bad-boy provocateur Todd Solondz (Happiness, Palindromes), but July is more kind to her oddballs, although she displays a disturbing aptitude for perversity that Solondz would applaud.
-
63There are some notable oddballs in the filmmaking debut of performance artist Miranda July, whose lead performance in this Sundance winner for "originality" is the most appealing thing about it.
-
60The result is discomfiting, funny and oddly touching.
-
50A hit-and-miss affair. It has moments of unexpected, offbeat comedy, but most of the time neither the characters nor the situations engage the viewer.
-
50A vanity project by a moderately talented artist that has moments of real brilliance in it.
-
50Me and You takes a couple of neat swipes at the pretentiousness of the art scene, but as a commentary on the difficulty of connecting in contemporary society, it's too precious by half.
-
50As an actress, she (July) is annoying as hell, with a quirkiness so labored, she seems to be begging for our affection. As a director she is much better.
-
50Just creepy and unsavory at moments, but pleased to be so.
