SAVE YOURSELVES! is a funny commentary on our dependence on technology in the face of an alien invasion. Sunita Mani & John Reynolds have sweet chemistry as a modern New York couple who lack the primal masculine skills to survive. Turns out all they need is each other.

Always enjoy these clever, indie, small scale sci-fi films about two people. With an alien invasion going on in the backdrop. But it's really a metaphor about life and relationships. It's fun. Good laughs. The cutest aliens you'll ever see. I like the concept, though it isn't the most original, it's done in an amusing and entertaining way.

Seen at Sundance 2020

The most comedy movie I’ve seen at Sundance. A really funny script that’s escalated by the even funnier central performances from John Reynolds and Sunita Mani. Their chemistry in the film was unparalleled and even at the Q & A you could tell they worked very well with each other. Thought the low-budget, practical effects really worked for the story and I appreciated how creative the alien stuff was. Overall, one of the funniest movies I’ve seen in a while! This film goes to show that all you need is a great script and great performances and you have a great film. Would love to watch this again!

#SaveYourselves is quite unique, VERY DIFFERENT than what I thought it was gonna be, but ended up having a good time with it! Go in blind, and get ready for a message that our society needs.

seventh sundance film!

this one knocked it out of the fucking park. while i feel like often times we're primed to be skeptical of sci-fi indies, this film was so creative and innovative in the way it approached special effects that it pulls it off so well. it takes a huge sci-fi event and makes it the perfect size to manage i a film of this nature. the fantastic script is only made better by fantastic performances. it so hits the mark of creating realistic characters that lean into their identities as millennials in a way that isn't cringey or belittling. this is one to look out for, it's got major cult classic potential. cannot wait to get a chance to see it again.

In our mobile device centric lives, Save Yourselves! arrives just in time as relevant satire about the implications of phone devotion. Focusing on the two leads, played by Mani and Reynolds, the couple play off one another with relational, comedic moments that will have you turn to your partner in affirming acknowledgement of “we’ve SO done that”. As first-time writers / directors, Fischer and Wilson demonstrate a film well beyond their years that is both relatable, relevant and most of all, fun.

Save Yourselves! could have easily run its primary joke to the ground as a hipster Brooklyn couple unplugs for a week to reconnect with one another only to miss the memo on aliens invading Earth. But thanks to the script and warm performances from John Reynolds and Sunita Mani, it never feels like they’re the primary butt of the joke. And sure, these characters are nowhere equipped to confront—let alone survive—an alien invasion, but frankly, most of us would be in the exact same boat.

Not really something I was that into, humor-wise. Still very entertaining and fun to watch with friends for sure. Ending felt lazy

Felt a bit too much like it was made by someone living in the silverlake reservoir

SAVE YOURSELVES is great creature feature and sci-fi wonder that puts human beings on onus for being stupid humans. Super funny and very resourceful.

It’s the end of the world as the characters of “Save Yourselves!” know it, as this roughhewn comedy gleefully skewers urbanites’ over-reliance on technology.

Su (Sunita Mani) and Jack (John Reynolds) are a Brooklyn couple in a rut, and locked onto their screens. Su freaks out when Jack uses her laptop and messes with her browser tabs, which she keeps organized for her job as an assistant to an exceedingly demanding boss. Even a furtive makeup session gets sabotaged by the text-message alert.
