Alex Huston Fischer and Eleanor Wilson haven't imagined the apocalypse with the fullness of imagination it requires - much less the weight - perhaps because, like most comedies with a side of romance, 'Save Yourselves!' is supposed to go down easy. But there's real wisdom and honesty to the way this relationship plays out, as both characters struggle to get out of the literal and proverbial woods with some perspective. Despite the doom and gloom, 'Save Yourselves!' packs in a lot of laughs - and even a little hopefulness (depending on how you interpret its wonderfully thought-provoking ending). - Jake Watt Read Jake's full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-save-yourselves-millennials-versus-apathy-and-a-fuzzy-alien-apocalypse

Really great watch, would watch again, and can recommend. This is an amazing approach to the alien invasion trope masked with a existential revelation style trope. Honestly, I think its big mistake was using (or at least going out of its way to concentrate humor on) Brooklyn hipsters, it is really distracting. Using the "relationship repair" out of town establishing act feels clever and the actors do a good job, but it is the tribble like creatures that really make the movie stand out. I've been dying for a non-humanoid alien movie for a while now, and this was a great answer.
