Before We Go

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Chris Evans' directorial debut is modest to a fault, with a threadbare story and minimal style leaving his and Alice Eve's likable performances adrift in New York City with nowhere to go.

Katie Walsh Tribune News Service Sep 14, 2015
3/4
While 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. Go to Full Review
Ella Taylor NPR Sep 4, 2015
Slight and familiar but sweet enough for Saturday night, Before We Go is the umpteenth re-up of Brief Encounter, not that there's anything wrong with that. Go to Full Review

1.5/4
Very little here is special, despite the individual charms of Evans and co-star Alice Eve. Go to Full Review

2/5
For the new independent film Before We Go, it's Chris Evans's turn to be be a first-timer. The promise is there, but he has a long way to go. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
Chris Evans is wise to pick a script that deals with a small cast that takes place over the course of a single night for his directorial debut. Evans and Eve have a pretty sweet chemistry and the tentative romance between them feels earnest. Go to Full Review

3/5
Before We Go is mediocre at best and ultimately a forgettable film. Still, it's also somehow decently entertaining despite its shortcomings and occasionally drawn-out melodrama. A film best seen from the comfort of your own home. Go to Full Review

Luke M Apr 27, 2019 Not bad.. a Sunday evening movie.
Apr 13, 2019 okay, so I'm not a seasoned critic on cinema but I'm sure everyone went a little harsh on it. I also think that it is a great film and deserves much more credit, it is a must see movie cause you know that no one would be crazy enough to write this-a-long para for a film. go watch it See more
Poe R Apr 3, 2019 A meandering film that lives up to its title by ending just as the films seems to FINALLY be going somewhere.
George G Mar 31, 2019 The leads are engaging. Story moves along through reveals. I liked it.
Kylo G Feb 26, 2019 This movie is big-hearted and made me wrap my head around a larger kind of love than I've seen in other films. In the lack of a central, obnoxious theme, this movie makes you realize something simple but big: love, happens. See more
George W Feb 24, 2019 Chris Evans' shot at directing starts out usually small in the grounded approach on the streets of nighttime New York with socially platonic guidance, filled with bolstering charisma from the chemistry he shares with Alice Eve while in a process of cementing a direction to deflect start-up pitfalls.
