Review of Save Yourselves! (2020) by Tvjerry — 04 Oct 2020

John Reynolds and Sunita Mani play a hip Brooklyn couple who are typically attached to their devices. In an attempt to reconnect with each other, they disconnect from the world to spend a weekend in an isolated cabin.

While there, the planet endures an alien invasion that eventually involves them. The beginning of the movie effectively portrays the self-indulgent narcissism of this hipster culture along with their reliance on social media.

However, when it’s time for the extraterrestrial encounters, there’s little suspense and the comic moments are slight…a lot more distressed ranting than action. Overall, this is a low-budget indie with an promising concept and admirable intentions that aren’t always achieved.
