The Alternate Ratings & Reviews
Film Threat
Rob Rector
The sci-fi thriller flexes its muscle in its storytelling simplicity rather than piling on the special effects.
North Shore Movies
Daniel M. Kimmel
The "what if?" idea of discovering another version of yourself is an intriguing one that will no doubt be used again. One can only hope is that we're in the universe where the next movie that tries it is more engaging than "The Alternate."
Crooked Marquee
Josh Bell
An intriguing exploration of a familiar sci-fi concept.
The Film Yap
Christopher Lloyd
This imaginative and impressive sci-fi/psychological thriller haunts us with forbidding questions about whether we're truly being the best version of ourselves.
Alt Film Guide
Tim Cogshell
"It's wicked good and smart and in the current milieu of multi-meta-verse fever feels ever so slightly - possible."
Midwest Film Journal
Evan Dossey
There's nothing quite like a thriller that plays its premise to the fullest.
Screen Rant
Rachel LaBonte
Though The Alternate could've been better served by a deeper exploration of its themes and characters, it offers a unique take on a familiar idea.
