All I See Is You
Directed by Marc Forster, the psychological drama ALL I SEE IS YOU, defies genre to tell this obsessive love story. Gina (Blake Lively) & husband James (Jason Clarke) have an almost perfect marriage. After being blinded as a child in a nearly fatal car crash, Gina exclusively depends on James to feel and 'see' the world around her, and it appears only to solidify their extremely passionate relationship. She envisions the world in her own vivid imagination with help from James' descriptions. While the two enjoy a colorful existence living in Bangkok, their life and relationship are upended after Gina receives a corneal transplant & regains her sight. With her restored vision, Gina experiences the world with a new sense of wonder & independence which James finds threatening. It is only when Gina suddenly begins to lose her sight again that she finally realizes the disturbing reality of their marriage and their lives.

There is an appreciated sense of unconventionally to the film. However, the story quickly takes an overemotional and theatrical turn which diminish the many topics the story could have explored.November 02, 2017
This tepid psychodrama suffers from a weak script with an absurd conclusion.October 29, 2017
Some nice visual perspective from (a sightless) point of view. Lots of pretentious BS, too.November 15, 2017
There are some issues in this erotic thriller that director Marc Forster wants to address, but the execution is wanting.October 27, 2017
Somewhere in this interestingly shot mystery there's an exploration of identity, masculinity and marital discord, but those themes are obscured by the sublime, strange Blake Liveliness of it all.December 18, 2017
The film is baffling, seemingly setting up every giant clue about something terrible happening, while only creating a lot of confusion.October 26, 2017
for all of Forster's experimentation, and his willingness to prod at the strange, jagged edges of this relationship, he ultimately rejects darkness.October 27, 2017
You might be laughing at the movie by the time you reach its go-for-broke final shot, but the look on Lively's face is enough to fulfill the idea that loving someone is not the same as needing someone.November 15, 2017
While this has interesting moments, Foster seems unable to follow the story into as deep or dark a place as it should go and the ambiguity in the storytelling is unwarranted and frustrating to witness.October 27, 2017
All I See Is You seems extra-uniquely bad somehow.October 26, 2017
Marc Forster's superficially trippy Thailand-set movie never plays like something that had to be made about the human condition. Think instead a short faux-experimental film unnecessarily stretched to the yawning point.October 27, 2017
Despite an interesting premise and a promising first act, All I See Is You ultimately fails to deliver much beyond a gradual descent into disinterest and watch-checking.
