Movie Info
In this supernatural thriller, three college friends go to the biggest party of the year, each looking for something different: love, sex and a simple human connection. When a mysterious phenomenon disrupts the party, it lights a fuse on what will become the strangest night anyone has ever seen. As the three friends struggle to find what they're looking for, the party quickly descends into a chaos that challenges if they can stay friends or if they can even stay alive. (c) IFC MIdnight

All Critics (10) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (6) | Rotten (4)
A fleet and frenzied sci-fi tale with more on its mind than alien gate-crashers.
Top CriticIn trying to say everything, "Plus One" reveals it doesn't have much to say at all.
Director Dennis Iliadis doesn't overdwell on the existentialism of the concept; he lets emotional beats strobe against the WTF experience of the temporal doubles, peppering the action with distinct images and events to make the repetition stand out.
This bizarre attempt to mix elements of a teen sex comedy with a supernatural thriller really doesn't succeed at either one, despite some amusing moments.
Part Project X, part existential sci-fi head-scratcher with echoes of Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Dennis Iliadis' +1 is a unique and endlessly entertaining addition to the teen comedy genre
...the film is so po-faced that you wonder what the point of all this is, let alone what we should be hoping is the outcome.
Imagine Project X taking place in the world of Another Earth and you get +1. While there are interesting aspects within the film's sci-fi elements, it seems repressed thanks to so much emphasis being put on raunchy college behavior.
One of those movies whose only chance of enduring is based on the word of mouth of those who have seen it, "+1" is a freaky jaunt through time travel that is well worth taking.
+1 will have you seeing double, but as time passes at such a quick pace, you'll have a blast trying to figure out why.
It ambitiously parodies and mourns the implications of the one coherent message that mass media manages to convey to all of its consumers in all its endlessly proliferating, ever-shifting permutations.
