Together Reviews Lead To Excellent Rotten Tomatoes Score for Horror Movie
Together gets stellar reviews from critics
Adam Graham (Detroit News) called the psychological layers of the script 'just as potent as the eventual literalizing of their fears.' Bill Goodykoontz (Arizona Republic) noted, 'If you can't laugh while you squirm, it's unbearable. Together is more than bearable. It's really fun.'
Rocco T. Thompson (Slant Magazine) highlighted that 'Together treats its body horror as just another wrinkle in the complexities of what it means to love someone else.' Tomris Laffly (RogerEbert.com) remarked, 'Finding out whether an on-screen couple have what it takes has rarely felt this cutting, and, ultimately, this rewarding.'
Kristen Lopez (The Film Maven) said, 'Together is a wild ride that, for all the squishing and melding, is also a powerful story of romantic complacency.' Bob Strauss (San Francisco Chronicle) described the film as cutting 'blood-curdling rawness with sensitivity,' praising the physical acting.
Brian Tallerico (RogerEbert.com) observed that the film turns long-term relationship questions into 'physical horror in a way that's unforgettable.' David Rooney (The Hollywood Reporter) stated, 'Director Shanks is in his devilishly playful element,' while Owen Gleiberman (Variety) wrote, 'It works as a totally unhinged yet far from mindless thriller built around a Big Idea.'
Together is certified fresh on Rotten Tomatoes
As of July 30, 2025, Together holds a certified fresh score of 99% on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 87 critic reviews. The near-unanimous praise marks it as one of the best-reviewed horror films of the year. An official audience score has yet to be posted, as the film currently has fewer than 50 verified ratings.
Directed by Michael Shanks, Together follows longtime couple Tim (Dave Franco) and Millie (Alison Brie) as a move to the countryside turns into a nightmare when a mysterious force physically fuses them. The film uses body horror to explore love, co-dependency, and the fear of losing oneself in a relationship.
The film hit in theaters on July 30, 2025.

These $80 Windows XP Crocs just made me desperate for Android footwear
Techradar TL;DR Microsoft has created Windows XP Crocs as part of its 50th anniversary celebrations. The custom footwear features a sky blue design with grassy green soles that mimic the conic Bliss wallpaper from the XP era. All I want is for Google to make Android Crocs a thing! Microsoft just did the unthinkable and made Windows XP cool again after almost 25 years. The software giant has released a pair of Windows XP-inspired Crocs, and now, all I can think of is how cool it would be if Google made some Android Crocs! You can buy Android Croc charms from the Google Store, but a fully custom-designed pair of Crocs would be so cool, just like these Windows XP ones. In celebration of its 50th anniversary, Microsoft has gone full nostalgia mode with a limited-edition pair of Windows XP-themed Crocs. The shoes feature a sky blue design with grassy green soles that mimic the iconic Bliss wallpaper from the XP era. If that's not enough, each pair of Windows XP Crocs also comes with a six-pack of Microsoft charms, including the MSN logo, Internet Explorer icon, Clippy, and a good old-fashioned mouse pointer. The Verge first reported on the nostalgic footwear, and TechRadar confirmed that the Crocs are very real. Looks like Microsoft employees are getting first dibs via preorder before the rest of the world can clog a pair. The Windows XP Crocs are $80 and even come with a matching Bliss drawstring backpack. I love Microsoft, but I can't help wanting my own Android pair for obvious reasons. I have a whole collection of Android pins collected painstakingly from Mobile World Congress over the years. I even use some of them as earrings once in a while. But now, all I want is Android Crocs. Picture a bright green shoe with little bugdroids across the strap, charms shaped like old Nexus phones, the original Android robot logo, and maybe even a scannable QR code. Make the Android Crocs happen, Google, for the nostalgia, for the pins, and for my feet. Article body continued Follow

Concert brings families together at Ronald McDonald House in West Philadelphia
Families staying at the Ronald McDonald House in West Philadelphia got a special treat on Tuesday evening: a summer concert from the Verdi Band of Norristown, Pennsylvania. The ensemble was founded in 1920 by an Italian immigrant who believed "music is the Gospel of the human heart." More than 100 years later, that message still guides the band, including longtime members like Monsignor John Marine, who's been playing for more than 50 years. "It's a unique audience here," Marine said. "To think that we're touching people who've come from so far. It's a unique opportunity." The performance brought smiles and a sense of peace to families who've traveled far while their children receive medical treatment at local hospitals. Michelle Farwell and her 14-year-old son, Alex, came from Syracuse, New York. After a long day of appointments, they said the concert was a welcome break. "It's like respite because so many of us are kind of going through being out of our normal routine and dealing with so many different things," Michelle Farwell said. "And this makes you feel more comfortable," Alex Farwell said. "Coming down, eating dinner with everyone, hanging out." Alex is a musician himself. "I know this sounds odd, but I can see the twinkle in (the band's) eyes. ... They love what they're doing, and I can just tell just by watching them play," he said. Music conductor Ken Laskey said he loves seeing how the music connects with people. "I like to look out into the audience and see people clapping, people enjoying, smiling, socializing with their family and friends," he said. "Especially when they hear the beginning of a song and say I know that one!" The one-hour concert included more than 15 songs, ending with a patriotic favorite, "Stars and Stripes Forever."

National Night Out puts family fun on full display in parts of Philadelphia, South Jersey
All across the country, police departments participated in National Night Out on Tuesday. Family fun was on full display in Falls Township, Bucks County, for National Night Out festivities inside Falls Township Community Park. Chief of Police Nelson Whitney said he looks forward to this event every year. "This is a chance for us to connect with them on a day where it's not an emergency, it's not a call for service," Whitney said. It was also all about community in South Philly, where National Night Out festivities included music, local resources and lots of free coffee. Meanwhile, the largest National Night Out celebration in South Jersey took over Washington Lake Park, complete with a Ferris wheel, hot air balloon rides, bouncy houses and a K-9 demonstration, all free for residents. "This is our Super Bowl of community policing, so this is our biggest event of the year," said Patrick Gurcsik, police chief for Washington Township. National Night Out happens every August on the first Tuesday of the month. The goal is to help build stronger relationships between law enforcement and the people they serve. "A huge portion of our mission is keep our residents safe, communicate with the residents, connect with the residents. We call it community care taking," Gurcsik said. Residents said the efforts matter. "Just the fact that they come out here and they're so friendly and they do this for all the kids and everyone, it's just a really nice night," said Kathy Amundsen. "Whatever brings community back together is always great," said Katie Kline from Deptford. "The best part is honestly just the community coming out," said Shai McLeod from Washington Township.
