Critics Consensus

It's well-acted, and the true story that inspired it offers plenty of drama -- which is why it's so frustrating that All Good Things is so clichéd and frustratingly ambiguous.

Candice Frederick Reel Talk Online The result just falls flat. Rated: C+ Sep 9, 2017 Full Review Nicolas Rapold Film Comment Magazine The Duel drops us into a pool of languid provincial life ( ... ) Kosashvili gets the delicate falling ending of short fiction that is so hard to achieve on screen. Nov 13, 2013 Full Review Laura Kern Film Comment Magazine David (Gosling) finds potential salvation in Katie (Kirsten Dunst), a free spirit so saintlike that she verges on caricature. Jun 20, 2013 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review The vague way in which Jarecki and his screenwriters, Marcus Hinchey and Marc Smerling, reach their hypotheses about what “really happened” feels less engaging than a documentary on the same subject might’ve been. Rated: 2/4 Aug 3, 2023 Full Review Debbie Lynn Elias Behind The Lens A chilling psychological portrait of a man, a marriage and a family. Nov 16, 2019 Full Review C.H.

Leo F I enjoyed Gosling's and Dunst's perforrmances. Knowing nothing about true story, I was constantly shocked and surprised by the events that took place in the movie. The directing was smooth. Dialogue was tight. However, I did feel the time around the one hour mark. Also, I didn't care about any of the deaths/murders that took place; when you spend so much time with characters, you'd expect to feel some heartbreak when they die. Others have noted that the one-dimensionality of the characters may contribute to our lack of empathy for any of them. One could also say, that not really caring about any of the deaths may be the director's and writer's way of bringing us into the mind/body of the killer. If you know the story or have watched the Jinx first, this movie might not satisfy you. Going in blind led to an enjoyable thrillride. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/31/24 Full Review Audience Member It’s good, not horrible…nothing remarkable about it. Except that Ryan Gosling always hits it out of the park. Think this is the first Kirsten Dunst movie I’ve seen and she was good too. Give it a try. Let me with more questions than answers. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/27/24 Full Review Dani G Starting in a drama, it develops into a hitchockesque thriller, changing the complexion of the film in every way, from the music to the cinematography Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/22/24 Full Review Alain E No idea why this movie is uniformly panned. I have seen my share of terrible films, some of which I simply stopped watching, say late Spielberg for example. This is a very solid 4/5 stars. Think of this this way: both Gossling and Dunst are very good actors who know how to choose where to appear. I am sure they were not tempted by millions of dollars to play in a rotten show. The theme is obviously disturbing. For people who want a saccharine version of reality, there is always the Hallmark channel. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/15/24 Full Review Jeff M Thriller starts promisingly, by last quarter becomes confusing and often laughably bad. Performances range from fine to embarrassing. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/24 Full Review Liquid A I thought this was pretty good. It's very dark, but its also well done all around. To me, it does exactly what it's suppose to do. Not sure why this gets so many negative reviews. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews
