Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Hannah Sutcliffe I went into this movie with absolutely no expectations, so I ended up being very pleasantly surprised with the overall movie after I had watched it. Twisted, dark and gritty; Alyce tells the story of a young woman whose life takes a downwards spiral after her friend falls off the roof of her apartment and is left seriously injured. This movie only used blood and gore towards the end to create that kind of "shock factor" that horror fans just love. Apart from the last thirty minutes, the movie is mostly atmospheric and moody, which makes Alyce's descent into madness all the more terrifying. This is a must see for fans of the horror genre and anyone who is looking for a strange and original twist on Lewis Carroll's "Alice in Wonderland."

ArdentViewer I would count this among the worst if not the worst movie I've ever seen. The first 20 minutes were tolerable but the rest was a gratuitous display of sex, drugs, violence, and gore. The last 20 minutes in particular were so graphic that I'm amazed this film managed an R rating rather than NC 17. And through it all, there was no point - nothing gained, nothing to take away. There was no real plot, no character development, and no reason to depict all of this nastiness. I deeply regret watching the movie all the way through - in fact, I only did so that I would be able to write an accurate review. I can't fathom what other people may have been thinking to rate this film as any higher than 2 or 3 stars out of 10 - and that would only be if you really like to see drugs, sex, and gore.

punishmentpark 'Beware hipsters', it says somewhere on a wall, very early on in the film. I'm guessing that these two youngsters are hipsters, because I don't know much about the phenomenon. It appears there are hipsters in Miranda July's 'The Future' (2011), but other than that I had to look it up elsewhere on the net; they were already around in the '40s of the previous century. The fact that there is a group of friends that is, ahem, falling apart in this film, make it believable that those words formed a true writing on the wall...Beyond that, there's lots of other associations that came up during 'Alyce'. Adam Wingard's 'A Horrible Way to Die', Stuart Gordon's 'King of the Ants', 'Edmond' and 'Stuck' and Lucky McKee's 'May' and 'Sick Girl' for instance, and during the scenes with the drug dealer I couldn't help but think of (De Palma's) 'Scarface' and 'True Romance'. And even the comedy series 'The Office' came up when the two girlfriends were out on the town, getting wasted after work - I'm out on a limb there, I know...That first half hour was a lot of fun: Jade Dornfeld and Tamara Feldman are radiant, act well, there are fun dialogues and there's the right amount of tension and chemistry going on. On top of that it was very nicely filmed. But after that, it's a bit of a bumpy ride. Luckily, every time things are starting to drag on, there's something funny or interesting to make up for it. The speech of the drug dealer wasn't all that interesting though, and the masturbation scene felt very staged, but I shouldn't complain about that last one, really...The fun and gory finale was a good choice: all pretensions hacked to pieces, and... 'What?' That's right; what?A big 7 out of 10.

marthastewartsmelons Alyce was an amazing treat for someone who has seen many films and is not easily surprised and I am very picky about movies especially horror films. What drew me to this movie in the first place was James Duvall because I absolutely love everything he is in from Donnie Darko to Greg Araki films Doom Generation and Nowhere. But who really shines in this film aside from James is Jade Dornfled as Alyce. She seamlessly goes from a sympathetic sweet friend to absolutely batshit nuts. The acting in this movie is very well done and the atmosphere is very dark and heavy but very enjoyable on a bizarre and at times disturbing level. This movie goes there where others are afraid to go and that is rare. The weaving of the Alice in wonderland story to the tale of this girl and her own journey "down the rabbit hole " is very clever at times and is always there while telling a new story with very disturbing sometimes even funny (Like American psycho funny) moments. I Absolutely loved this film and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys an amazing independent movie that could easily beat out what is in theaters these days.
