Review of Together

Together (VI) (2021)
6/10
Unique, but disappointing
15 December 2023
I'm not sure what I was expecting here, so it's hard to say I was disappointed, but that's the word that fits best. This unusual deep dive into Covid isolation in the UK was intriguing on the surface, and the acting was great, but the funny wasn't funny enough, the sad was realistic but depressing, and the political (which I mostly agree with) was a bit overdone. I think they had something cool here, but failed nonetheless.

Knocking down the fourth wall, and inviting viewers into their quarantine drama was unique, but despite the solid acting, I couldn't relate to Horgan and McAvoy as a "couple" enough to care about them. They were just too horribly mismatched and parentally inept to like and find believable. Again, a cool idea and presentation, but I feel they missed the mark, and this could have been better.
