There is a “Good Will Hunting” vibe to the film, a gifted young person sliding toward obscurity who is helped by the intervention of friends and colleagues. And the film may end with all the lose ends tied up into fancy bows, but its heart is pure. Read full review

The story is simple but what makes the film remarkable is how Haley effortlessly, earnestly marshals performance, tone and style. Read full review

Have plenty of tissues nearby when you watch the top-notch Netflix film All Together Now, a teary tale of fellowship. Read full review

It’s the rare teen movie that doesn’t seem like it’s mostly a fantasy, that gets beyond the big, artificial beats of series like Glee and Riverdale. Read full review

All Together Now has enough of Haley’s signature humanism to elevate it above the average teen melodrama, but only just. Read full review

Movie Nation Roger Moore

Aug 31, 2020

It’s an uneven affair that begins with a flourish, works to develop homeless street cred, wanders into the maudlin wilderness for the middle acts and rallies for a predictable, over-the-top, break-out-your-Kleenex finale. Read full review

An awkward misfire at best and an uneasy and irresponsible one at worst. Read full review

Not your average Netflix teen movie. This was a very moving and honest film about hope and learning to accept help. Have a box of tissues ready as this is an emotional journey - but it's one that wraps up nicely and made me feel really good in the end. Would highly recommend!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. HOPE, FAITH, KEEP PUSHING, this is all I was needed. August 31, 2020 at 2:50am, I finished watching this movie, which open my mind beyond what I could even think of. If I can get what I was looking for From it, I guess everyone can or already get it too. I will keep pushing, keep hoping and the most important believe that's I can make it. Not on my own, with help of my friend, my family, my community, we can do anything we desire. This a great movie, with a lot of great motives, I Tedly recommend this movie to anyone out there. Just get a little of what I just get from it. … Expand

Es muy sentimental en ocasiones, sin embargo, termina siendo una muy buena película.

Relatively basic entertainment. Not much to salvage considering the predictable elements it offers.

Sadly, its greatest achievement is not being a fiasco considering Netflix standards.
