Synopsis
The apocalypse doesn’t appear to be the end of the world to Del (Peter Dinklage), a reclusive survivor who seems to be coping with the extinction of the human race just fine. In fact, he might even be enjoying his newfound solitude. Or at least he was, until a mysterious young interloper named Grace (Elle Fanning) disturbs his calm, quiet, empty existence. And she won’t leave him alone. The film earned director Reed Morano (The Handmaid’s Tale) the U.S. Dramatic Special Jury Award for Excellence in Filmmaking at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival.

Metacritic
With the indie two-hander I Think We’re Alone Now, starring Peter Dinklage and Elle Fanning, this talented director is stuck in neutral with the illogical, unremarkable concerns in Mike Makowsky’s ham-fisted screenplay.
A haunting first half can’t offset the absurd ending of I Think We’re Alone Now, a post-apocalyptic tale with a late plot twist that feels as if it comes out of left field. And right field. And center field, the stands and the dugout, too.
I Think We’re Alone Now is a tone poem of a movie, telling its story with lush, vivid imagery, and quiet, nuanced performances. Its slow, methodical pacing may not appeal to all moviegoers, and the film’s final act doesn’t entirely work. But it’s nevertheless a beautiful meditation on loneliness and the walls we put up to deal with grief and loss.
