Arizona RepublicRandy CordovaOct 26, 2017
Strange, surreal and compelling, All I See Is You is a dreamy exploration of a marriage, and what happens when all of its imbalances and insecure quirks are suddenly thrust out in the open. It’s also something of a thriller, and the two worlds don’t mesh in a way that is completely satisfying. Still, it’s riveting to watch everything unfold. Read full review

IndieWireDavid EhrlichOct 26, 2017
All I See Is You continues to be fun and involving even when things get truly ridiculous in the third act and Forster starts relying on the sheer momentum the plot in order to speed over its potholes. Read full review

New York Magazine (Vulture)Emily YoshidaOct 24, 2017
As a psychological not-quite thriller, it’s consistently entertaining; as a visual exercise, it’s more adventurous than most would be. Read full review

Village VoiceApril WolfeOct 24, 2017
It defeats expectations, but it’s far more arresting and captivating a romance because Forster infuses it with suspenseful urgency. I have to admire the guts of a director who portrays the dissolution of a mismatched marriage with the dread of a murder mystery. Read full review

Even as All I See Is You descends into soapy nonsense, it remains visually engaging. Read full review

The A.V. ClubJesse HassengerOct 24, 2017
Lively has become an expert at creating the impression that at some point, the movie behind her will come together. All I See Is You comes closer than "Adaline," but its adult intentions don’t go far enough. Read full review

ReelViewsJames BerardinelliOct 30, 2017
All I See Is You ultimately fails to deliver much beyond a gradual descent into disinterest and watch-checking. Read full review

The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisOct 26, 2017
The director, Marc Forster (who wrote the script with Sean Conway), fashions such a languid, tipsy aesthetic around the seemingly happy marriage of Gina and James (Blake Lively and Jason Clarke) that it’s easy to keep watching. Read full review

The Seattle TimesSoren AndersenOct 26, 2017
Forster gets decent performances from Lively and Clarke, but the overall impression “All I See” leaves is of a picture that fails to live up to its filmmaker’s ambitions. Read full review

Boston GlobePeter KeoughOct 25, 2017
What emerges from this pretentious if diverting mishmash is a story that is equally predictable and contrived, but nonetheless offers some worthwhile insights into the notion of the male gaze and the subjugation of women. Read full review

The PlaylistKenji FujishimaSep 12, 2016
Take away Forster’s hard-working visual style, and what All I See Is You essentially presents is a standard relationship drama, with two generic, privileged people at its heart who don’t become any more striking even as the tensions between the two gradually reach a breaking point. Read full review

Screen DailyAllan HunterSep 12, 2016
Marc Forster’s meandering, slow-burning tale has elements that might have attracted Polanski or Almodovar but eventually settles for a psychological thriller that is a little too enigmatic for its own good. Read full review

VarietyPeter DebrugeSep 12, 2016
Look past the gimmick, and all that remains is an overly arty study of a lopsided marriage in which super-attentive husband James (Jason Clarke) actually seems to prefer when his wife Gina (Blake Lively) can’t see — and another opportunity for Lively to prove that she’s more than just a pretty face.

Austin ChronicleDanielle WhiteOct 25, 2017
A few scenes are inexplicably bizarre (why is Gina’s brother-in-law covering his naked body in red paint while staring at a sculpture of a bull?). It’s as though someone came along and said, “Just make it artsy as f*ck.” Read full review

New York Daily NewsStephen Whitty Oct 25, 2017
Inside the endlessly dull, oh-so-serious All I See Is You there’s a short, fun, trashy movie dying to get out. And dying. And dying. Read full review

Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperOct 26, 2017
This is a visually arresting film with two attractive and charismatic lead actors, but it’s doomed by the melodramatic twists and turns, and the ridiculous behavior by nearly every major character. Read full review

Philadelphia Daily NewsGary ThompsonOct 26, 2017
Forster does some interesting visual work here to suggest the perspective of a person who is (legally) blind, but in general, when your thriller requires the heroic intervention of an ophthalmologist, you’re in trouble. Read full review

Slant MagazineDerek SmithOct 22, 2017
The longer things drag out, All I See Is You becomes every bit as amorphous as its protagonist's vision. Read full review

Washington PostMichael O'SullivanOct 26, 2017
The secrets that are revealed, to the extent that a viewer is able to make out what they are, remain murky, even to the end of the movie. Read full review

TheWrapRobert AbeleOct 26, 2017
The movie’s ambitions are misguided, which makes it all too fuzzy of an experience. Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterDavid RooneySep 12, 2016
The movie morphs from sluggishness to confused ludicrousness, as it turns into a thrill-deprived thriller. Read full review

Of course, all films, good or bad, are good or bad in their own way. I don’t know, though. All I See Is You seems extra-uniquely bad somehow. Read full review

San Francisco ChronicleDavid LewisOct 25, 2017
The best thing about All I See Is You is that it’s not afraid to experiment. But it’s an experiment that went wrong, a film in which ambiguity trumps complexity. Read full review

New Orleans Times-PicayuneMike ScottOct 26, 2017
By the time All I See Is You works its way toward what should be an emotionally charged conclusion, most reasonable audiences will have likely already checked out. All they'll see is their wristwatches, as they count down to when the whole misjudged exercise is over. Read full review
