Every emotion you could possibly think of plays out on Plaza’s face as she recounts the horrifying story. You want to look away, because it's just such a vulnerable moment. But she is so magnetic, you have to see where she takes the scene next...

A small but precise little picture that’s very efficient with what it has.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 25, 2022

A complete emotional journey... [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 27, 2022

Safety Not Guaranteed might be a high-concept low-budget indie but the three leading performances are one of the reasons why this film holds up beautifully ten years after its release.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Jun 10, 2022

Safety Not Guaranteed is a veritable cinematic Xanadu in a vast desert of crushing sameness. It'll make you laugh, it might make you cry, and it will certainly make you believe anything is indeed possible.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Apr 5, 2022

The kind of film where you leave the theater simply having to tell your friends about it.

| Original Score: 4.0/4.0 | Sep 21, 2020

A quiet, inventive, heartfelt approach to science fiction.

| Original Score: B | Jul 19, 2020

Trevorrow narrates the story devised by Connolly with a simplicity that is what ultimately makes us love almost immediately any of the four characters. [Full Review in Spanish]

| May 7, 2020

What follows is a remarkably touching and hilarious tale.

| Mar 31, 2020

The proverbial pitch that we would laugh off becomes the jumping-off point for a unique and original comedy.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 4, 2019

Witty, quirky and different in the best sense.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 26, 2019

While safety may not be guaranteed, there is one thing that is a guarantee - one of my top picks of 2012, Safety Not Guaranteed is a guaranteed great movie-going experience.

| Nov 26, 2019

If you can get past the flaws, Safety Not Guaranteed will make for a short but pleasant time.

| Original Score: 6.9/10 | Jun 29, 2019

Safety Not Guaranteed is good enough to withstand spoilers, but why risk ruining anyone's enjoyment? See it - it's both uncommon and charming.

| Original Score: B+ | Feb 1, 2019

If you enjoy films like Little Miss Sunshine or (500) Days of Summer, this will be right up your alley.

| Original Score: 9.5/10 | Nov 1, 2018

The unusual story is complemented by quirky characters that are strengthened by excellent performances. A somewhat dark and sometimes cynical comedy.

| Sep 8, 2018

This is a heartfelt and smart-tongued micro sci-fi with a tone and voice entirely its own, faltering only in its half-hearted attempts to become an ensemble piece.

| Original Score: 4/5 | May 21, 2018

Plaza and Duplass do great, believable work, and it's a debut that both writer (Connolly) and director (Trevorrow) can proudly hang their hats on.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 17, 2016

What garbage cinematography! I'd gladly donate $10 to buy them an [expletive] tripod.

Full Review | May 3, 2015

It's just about everything you'd want in a summer movie, combining elements of romance, science fiction and comedy juiced with an element of frat-boy attitude.

| Original Score: A- | May 24, 2013
