Portrait of a thirty-something couple with a pair of very naturalistic performances. The differences between the couples' characters, and men and women's different insecurities, are deftly handled. Engaging, but a tad too long.

in the words of djross: "sucked"

Surprisingly gripping in its relative simplicity, it provides a subtle look into insecurity and the failure of a relationship. Almost too realistic and a bit slight but that makes it easier to relate to it - it really does capture a lot of nuance in the interaction between people.

Close to "Scenes from a marriage". Great performances by Minichmayr and Eidinger.

With no real story I guess this would be called a character study, though what conclusions we are supposed to draw from this highly idiosyncratic pair of lovers is anyone's guess. Their bickering and mood swings are mildly entertaining at times, thought-provoking at others, and just as often, a complete turn off. The director doesn't help by deliberately leaving us in the dark sometimes. The lasting impression however is of an extremely realistic portrayal of life.

Two excruciatingly unlikable thirty-something yuppies bicker for two hours. That's it. Definitely well-observed and insightful though it lacks the (successful) humor of recent Baumbach (to name one somewhat like-minded reference point), or the visual flair and witty dialogue of Cassavetes or Rohmer at ther best (who are pretty much the kings of this type of thing), let alone someone like Antonioni (who's L'Eclisse remains easily the peerless, definitive film of this type).

One of the better modern love stories I've seen recently, and I say that even though I generally despised both leads. I kind of wanted them both to end up miserable.

"Not only is Everyone Else an instant contender for the pantheon of breakup movies, its manifold splendors evoke entire periods of great cinema." - Kevin B. Lee

The early scenes promise a subtle, complex and lively dissection of a relationship, but the film too quickly has its protagonists settle into a pattern of behaviour: the architect who is ambitious and insecure, and consequently standoffish and non-committal; his girlfriend who is increasingly frustrated and annoyed. The rigidity and eventual predictability of this pattern drains much of the life and interest from the film, leaving the viewer feeling it was something of a wasted opportunity.

The way it depicts a heterosexual relationship you'll feel like as if you're watching a thriller/horror movie (well at the end it almost becomes one). Some really uncanny confrontations but not much character depth if you ask me, still overall a good movie.

It earns points for avoiding the cinematic approach to portraying a relationship and instead aiming for realism, but the realistic approach to pacing and plotting, despite my efforts to the contrary, bored me out of my wits. Couldn't wait for this one to end. All the humour that should've balanced the serious subject matter was used up in the first 10 minutes. 1/3 Did not like

Everyone Else's conspicuous attention to the complex nature of romantic entanglement bleeds all the passion, compromise and difficulty of an adult relationship while upholding the standards of principled cinema, thus becoming one of the most delicately balanced, aesthetically satisfying love stories of its kind. Maren Ade has crafted an intimate, beautiful, existential picture; a film you just want to shove in the face of supporters of hacks like Marc Webb, screaming "this is how it's done!"
