"Everything Put Together" is the story of the American Dream unraveling. It's a chilling tale that examines the choices people make when faced with tragedy. In a quiet suburban community where every driveway has a minivan, every backyard has a swing set and every neighbor feels safe, something no one is prepared for happens. Angie and Russ are a young married couple at the pinnacle of their dreams and expectations. Their perfect world becomes a nightmare when a day after their baby is born, he dies inexplicably. Rather than rallying to support Angie and Russ, their friends (most of who are pregnant or have small children) block them out of their lives to avoid the discomfort of dealing with the couple's loss. Without her friends and with her marriage disintegrating, Angie is set adrift to deal with her grief alone, sending her on a strange and terrifying journey into madness. Only after a near-fatal collision is Angie able to return her life to some semblance of normalcy and rejoin the social circle. Like Roman Polanski's masterpieces Repulsion and Rosemary's Baby, Marc Forster's Everything Put Together is contemporary horror story following a young woman on her journey through maddening circumstances that turn from bad to downright sinister. It is a searing parable about human frailty, one that resonates powerfully because of disturbing implications about us all. -- © 2001 Vitagraph Films [Less]

A riveting haunting chronicle of a young mother who's lost her baby (a splendid Radha Mitchell), the film lacks sharp narrative but has emotional immediacy and intensity and displays the voice of a gifted director, Marc Forster, a major talent to watch

Suspenseful and satirical, it approaches a modern day suburban nightmare.

While pockmarked by some flaws and blemishes, it remains an intriguing effort, marking the debut of a young director worth keeping an eye on.

Everything Put Together takes a couple of curious turns that you will either applaud or hiss at, depending on the type of film you are looking for.

It may be a decent reflection of the shallowness of our society, and the unwillingness of many to get involved when they're most needed, but it didn't evoke any emotional reaction from me...just the feeling that I'd been robbed of my time.

Moving down the list: Suburban dread? Check. Social statement about medical incompetence? Check. Shot on hand-held digital video? Check.

With Mitchell's stunning performances at the center...a small picture that packs a major wallop.

Aims for genuine discomfort, and it hits the mark with intelligence and style.
