Its strength really lies in its ability to recognize grief, in all of its raggedness and messiness, and not shy away from it.

[A] tender indie tearjerker built from the blueprint of a wrenching true story...
A.V. Club
3 stars out of 4 -- OUR FRIEND is very good where it really counts and that's on the small details, the everyday life aspect of doing errands, cooking dinner, while your family is going through this harrowing ordeal.

Rating: B- --
Our Friend spares us the gory details at almost every turn, cleaning up a story whose power stemmed, heavily, from its willingness to be gruelingly truthful about what cancer can do to the body.

Some things remain a mystery. If we were a little bit better as people, this decent, clear-eyed movie hints, they might not.

It's not often we see grief from this point of view, but Segel's work makes it all too real and painful -- giving Our Friend the emotional center it needs to make it both an effective tearjerker and uplifting story of friendship.

Rating: 3/5 --
While "Our Friend" is effective as drama - the acting is uniformly excellent - and is beautifully shot, the film pulls its punches to its, and the audience's, detriment.

Product Description:
Directed by Gabriela Cowperthwaite, this comedy-drama is loosely based on the real-life events narrated in the Esquire Magazine article "The Friend: Love Is Not a Big Enough Word" by Matthew Teague. Nicole (Dakota Johnson) is diagnosed with cancer, and her husband, Matthew (Casey Affleck), is devastated. They adjust for the inevitable preparations of what this disease will entail in their lives. Their longtime friend Dane (Jason Segel) visits to help the couple cope. When he stays far longer than necessary, his life starts to upend as his girlfriend feels abandoned and he leaves his job.
