Reviews for Everything Put Together
A great example with which to counter the prevailing argument that 'indie cinema' is dead.
01/11/02
"Everything Put Together" does put everything back together in the end, and manages to horrify us in the process.
11/24/01
The good artistic qualities of “Everything Put Together” far outweigh the poor technical aspects of the film.
11/27/01
A deeply unsettling portrait of an awful tragedy and its terrible aftermath.
11/08/01
Despite an evocatively dark-toned DV atmosphere, is too responsible to erupt into the kind of operatic maternal horror it keeps threatening the audience with.

Top CriticThe subject matter is queasy, but Radha Mitchell ... is pitch perfect as Angie.

Top CriticA finely acted expressionistic critique of the suburban baby culture and its joys, fears and fetishes.
11/09/01
Top CriticWhile pockmarked by some flaws and blemishes, it remains an intriguing effort, marking the debut of a young director worth keeping an eye on.

Moving down the list: Suburban dread? Check. Social statement about medical incompetence? Check. Shot on hand-held digital video? Check.
05/15/02
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
12/27/06
Top CriticThough morbidly attuned to the petty cruelties of social embarrassment, the script never transcends its stick figures and creaky mechanics.
11/06/01
Top Critic[Foster] shoots this rather grim film like a pretentious horror flick.
11/09/01
Top CriticNone of the actors are given a chance to break through the slow-moving, manipulative script.
11/09/01
Suspenseful and satirical, it approaches a modern day suburban nightmare.
11/12/04
With Mitchell's stunning performances at the center...a small picture that packs a major wallop.
03/19/02
One of the those low-budget pictures with high impact that seem to pop up out of nowhere to take audiences by surprise.

Top Critic
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.
06/28/02
Aims for genuine discomfort, and it hits the mark with intelligence and style.
