Review by Eddie on 27/11/2025
Apple’s latest collaboration with Ted Lasso and Shrinking star Brett Goldstein, William Bridges sci-fi founded romantic drama is a film with big ideas and lots of possibilities but after a relatively strong starting section, All of You fails to capitalise on its great concept and gives way to a tedious feeling pattern that fails to inspire.
Set in a near future where the world has embraced new technology that can identify one’s soulmate too ensure romances and relationships are destined for great success, You has a world of potential at its fingertips as this foundation is laid for Goldstein’s Simon and Imogen Poots Laura, two strongly tied university friends, to be a part of but this fantastic idea is left relatively unexplored as Simon and Laura’s will they or won’t they romance gets stuck in a repetitive loop.
A dialogue driven drama that asks a lot from Goldstein and Poots from an acting perspective, with both performers giving it their all, You struggles to allow its main characters to become truly likable figures and as the answer so clearly lays before them and they continue to make poor decision after poor decision, Bridge’s film starts to suffer from the fact both Simon and Laura aren’t exactly the most engaging of central characters and watching their back and forward becomes far less engaging as the films 90 minute runtime begins to drag.
It’s a shame for the film and the audience that Simon and Laura’s complicated relationship and emotional connection wasn’t able to establish itself to a higher degree as there are signs of something special laying within the grasp of this undeniably high-concept offering, early on there feels like a whole world waiting to be explored through these two intelligent leads navigating a whole new universe where the mystery of love has been unlocked.
These early day signs however begin to slowly but surely give way to a far more generic and cookie-cutter experience that feels akin to any day time soapy one may have had the fortune (misfortune?) to come across and one can’t help but escape the feeling Goldstein and Bridges collaboration had a chance to become something really special more so than something with mere glimmers of greatness.
Final Say –
All of you presents audiences with a fascinating concept that ends up feeling like more of a tease than anything else, making All of You an intriguing failed chance to become one of the year’s special streaming releases as well as one of the year’s top class romantic dramas.
