Writer/director Maren Ade has a laid-back, almost lackadaisical style that feels breezy, lived-in, and rich.

Boxoffice Magazine by Amy Nicholson
Smart, empathetic and wholly believable.
The New Yorker by Anthony Lane
If there's one movie this spring that you shouldn't see with a date, it's Everyone Else, unless you are looking for a quick, low-budget way to break up. Not that Maren Ade's film is especially gloomy or cynical; merely that it functions as a fearsome seismograph, charting not just the major quakes in a relationship but also the barest tremors.
Simply fuzzy filmmaking of the worst sort.
An exercise in voyeurism, Maren Ade's provocatively titled, superbly performed, emotionally graphic Everyone Else is more fascinating than enjoyable.
The New York Times by Manohla Dargis
A sun-kissed German film about a young couple in love and in doubt, might not be perfect, but so much is right and true in this lovely, delicate work that it comes breathtakingly close.
The film is an impressive effort, yet often a trying one.
It isn't pretty to witness, but the pain of it smarts.
The well-acted, pleasantly lensed drama doesn't recall Hollywood's generic approach to fragile couples, and that's just fine with me.
reminiscent of Rohmer's vacation relationship dramas, but carves a different path and feels lived-in in a different way
