Reviews for Alone With Her
| Tomatometer | Critic | Review | Category |
|---|---|---|---|
 |
What sets the film a notch above standard genre fare is its ability to ask bigger questions about a stalker like Doug. Full Review |
||
|
3.5/5 |
A neatly insinuating idea, flawlessly executed, Alone With Her marks out its stars and director as ones to watch. Full Review |
||
|
|
A smart, unsettling drama that finds new uses for tatics devised by movies like The Stepfather and The Blair Witch Project. Full Review |
||
|
3.5/5 |
Alone With Her is a pretty engaging tale, and it's refreshing to see a well-acted, suspenseful drama made without a bloated budget or a lot of bloodletting. Full Review |
||
|
4/5 |
A novel spin on an oft-told tale, Alone with Her is a fine little indie indeed. What could have been just another gimmick flick turns out to be a pretty intense ride. Full Review |
||
|
|
The moral of the story: If you meet someone whose tastes mirror your own to a scary degree, then by all means, be scared. Full Review |
||
 |
Despite its cleverness, however, nearly everything is predictable; in a sense, this is a higher-tech version of The Collector, and it doesn't really take us anywhere we haven't been many times before. Full Review |
||
|
|
This isn't a psychological horror film so much as a slice-of-life twentysomething tale, in which one party happens to be quietly very not-normal. Full Review |
||
|
|
An unsettling tale of modern espionage horror. Full Review |
||
|
3.5/5 |
Alone with Her has a dog and a rampant sense of dread, the kind you don't recover from for at least a few days. I'm on the first day. Full Review |
||
|
|
Alone With Her plays like an extended voyeur video with nothing new to say about hidden cameras or stalkers or anything. Full Review |
||
|
4/6 |
Even a conventional, albeit cynical, ending can’t ruin such effective mood-making. Full Review |
||
|
|
... this low-budget horror flick builds some claustrophobic tension out of modern anxieties, but it won't scare the bejesus out of you. Full Review |
||
|
|
Leadenly scripted and blandly overliteral and therefore never capitalizes on the provocativeness of its premise. Full Review |
||
|
3/5 |
exudes the overall uncomfortable air of watching a depraved home movie Full Review |
||
|
3/4 |
Alone With Her is a tense, well-shot little thriller in the vein of 'fatal attraction' youth flicks like Fear, The Crush, and Swimfan. Full Review |
||
|
2.5/4 |
Through Hanks' and Talancon's subtle, naturalistic performance [writer-director Eric Nicholas] cultivates a human dimension often missing from thrillers. Full Review |
||
|
3/4 |
Alone With Her has the kind of high ick factor that leaves you squirming -- not because Doug is so diabolical a creation, but because what he does to satisfy his pathology is so practical. Full Review |
||
|
|
For all its technological ingenuity, however, the film is ultimately a fairly routine stalker thriller that soon becomes repetitive in its contrivances. And the footage, necessarily shot on digital video, is not particularly easy to watch. Full Review |
||
|
2.5/4 |
A B-picture waiting to cut loose in its final 15 minutes, when it devolves into generic stalker-thriller theatrics of the Julia-Roberts-in-distress kind. Full Review |
