That looks like it could either be fun or a complete piece of shit. I’m hoping Adam Driver’s presence means it’s more than just a gussied up Uwe Bill or Paul W.S. Anderson movie.

I’ve never heard of the directors. Looking up their filmography doesn’t instill me with a ton of hope.

I’m not sure why every action/adventure movie has to shoehorn in a kid. I groan every time I see it.

Not a big Driver fan but might be fun.

A dinosaur movie that's not part of the god-awful Jurassic Park/World franchise? Count me in!

Dominate that raptor, you pensive bison.
Crush that king of lizards, you rudely large man.
Utilize those futuristic weapons against those prehistoric beasts, you load-bearing behemoth.

I'm in for Adam Driver and dinosaurs.

I enjoyed Director/Writer Scott Beck & Bryan Woods' previous outing Haunt (2019) but thought their 2015 film Nightlight was absolute horse shit.

The title still sounds like a baseball movie to me for some reason.

It's the 5th movie in the 61* series.

Looks fun, I'm there.

To me it sounds like a film where a bunch of senior citizens decide to band together and attack a social security office in anger over their paltry social security checks.

This is out this week. No reviews yet. I had seen rumors going around that they were testing two endings only a few weeks ago.

The release strategy for this seems pretty haphazard, IMO.

This simultaneously looks well made and bad? I feel like I'm shitting on a lot of stuff lately.

I want to check this out, but I only have time for Scream VI this weekend and that’s going to dominate.

I think 65 will likely finish 3rd this weekend. Ant-Man is sinking fast and Cocaine Bear’s Schtick seems to have worn off.

My theatre listings have this at 87 minutes. I thought that can't be right, but wikipedia and imdb list it as 93 minutes. So, I guess it's 87 minutes excluding the end credits?

Kristian Harloff just saw it. He wasn’t a fan. If you don’t know who he is, he’s formerly of Collider video and The Schmoedown.




It’s currently sitting at a whopping 38% after 8 reviews on RT.

The only way I would have enjoyed this movie is if at the end
Spoiler:
Adam Driver and the 10 year old girl survived the asteroid, and you realize they're going to be the "Adam and Eve" that beget the entire human race we know today


Movie really didn't do anything imaginative or exciting with its premise. There's no set-pieces, not cool figuring-things-out-moments. I can't say the movie is bad, it's well-made, but I didn't give me anything the movies it 's derived from already did, plus they were fresher.

I assume the premise is made clear in the trailer, but just in case it isn't
Spoiler:
So Adam Drive comes from a planet that was established millions of years ago, and crash lands on Earth during the dinosaur era. It seems lazy that he just happens to come from a planet that is exactly like Earth, with all the same cultural norms of the nuclear family, and capitalism, and for-profit-health care... If there's life on other planets, it can't possible be identical to the average middle class 2023 citizen of the United States.
