You know what's wrong with this whole aggregation ranking thing? Everybody's a critic and everyone thinks that their opinion matters. And it doesn't. Not one little bit. Mine included, so you can stop reading anytime you like...

People are pissed at this movie the way they are pissed at every movie that isn't directed by Christopher Nolan and have a plot you need a PhD to understand. These people appear to have lost the ability to just...enjoy.

What anybody who watched this movie - a movie about time travel starring Ryan Reynolds - was expecting when they threw a hissy fit is totally beyond me. Did they not know what was on offer? It kinda says that on the tin. Now, if that's not gonna appeal to you, move along. Nothing for you to see here. For the rest of us - you know, those of us who haven't forgotten how to enjoy stuff an don't require everything we see to be groundbreaking and profound - The Adam Project was a smart, touching and reasonably exciting Sci Fi romp that hit all the right notes and pushed all the right buttons. Recommended.

This isn't going to win any Oscars, and it is far from a perfect time travel movie, but it was a fun ride. Kept my interest all the way through and had a good cast.

Fun, entertaining nonsense.

Put your brain in neutral and enjoy a charismatic fun film. I'd rather watch this of an evening than the majority of boring and pretentious Oscar winners.

The performances are ideal for this type of film. It has a few surprisingly heartfelt moments and some cracking one liners. The pacing is reasonable throughout and as a refreshing change it's under two hours long!

Ok so now I'm just making up the required character length (who can't a review be precise and to the point?) with a conclusion that this film was fun and a proper old school enjoyable romp. No need to be the best film in the world just a need to be enjoyable!

I cried a little, I laughed a little, I had a good time. The storyline is well developed and while a complicated concept it's handled well. The characters are well cast and well acted. Some hokey CGI but it doesn't detract too much.

Although I'm quite a fan of Ryan Reynolds, I went into 'The Adam Project' not really expecting much, I figured it would be just another straight-to-streaming-service sci-fi flick (feel free to correct me if it was ever released in the cinema, but I certainly never saw it advertised there!). But I was pleasantly surprised to find myself charmed by its upbeat story and playful energy. From the outset, it was easy to assume this movie would lean heavily on familiar tropes, but Ryan Reynolds' ever-charming performance, paired with a heartfelt script, made it hard to dislike.

Mr Deadpool himself plays Adam Reed (or rather yet another version of the actor - yes, he may not have an awful lot of 'range,' but he's so watchable, do we really care?) who is a time-traveling fighter pilot who crash-lands in 2022 and teams up with his 12-year-old self (Walker Scobell) to save the future. The premise may sound like a typical time-travel adventure, but there's a genuine sense of fun and nostalgia that sets it apart. In many ways, 'The Adam Project' reminded me of those classic 80s films centered around kids' adventures, like 'The Goonies.' It captures that same spirit of youthful wonder, blending humor, family dynamics and heartfelt moments into a cohesive narrative that feels fresh enough to be enjoyable.

I don't know much about the film's production. Like I say... I never saw it advertised theatrically, so maybe it didn't have a 'mega-budget' behind it. Therefore, some of the special effects are a little underwhelming and the action is a tad generic. Yet, overall, 'The Adam Project' is a light, enjoyable film that doesn't aim to be more than it is. It's a nostalgic throwback to simpler cinematic times, with enough charm to win over even the most skeptical of viewers. It's a rare film these days that I reckon that pretty much the whole family can enjoy as the 'violence' and bad language is very played down and PG13-esque.

This is fun. I definitely had a good time even if some intellectuals will say it sucks. I must admit that I'm a bit tired of Ryan Reynold, but on this one he is not as extra as usual - well, at least, sometimes - and he even gives a good performance.

This film won't change the world, but the humour landed more than I was expecting and the familiar dynamic/drama worked pretty well for me. Yeah, the villains are unidimensional and the background story is kind of generic, but this delivers what it promises, being an inoffensive fun film, reminding a lot of what we had in the past decades.

PS: Great soundtrack!

This was a very confusing one. Is it made for kids? Because if so, I'm not sure they would understand this movie. Some of the concepts are a little complex. And if it was made for adults, then this type of humor was way too childish. It's clearly another quick cash grab from Netflix that's trying to appeal to everyone and yet doesn't quite appeal to anyone.

The production of this is quite good. The fact that they shot this during Covid is even more amazing. The acting is top notch, especially Ryan R. And Jennifer G. The scene at the bar is truly moving.

As others have noted, you really need to watch this movie with your brain shut off. Too many plot holes. At the same time, the storyline is somehow both super basic yet also very confusing and complicated. Not even sure how they managed to do that one.

Definitely a one time watch for when you're bored and there's nothing else to watch.

Deadpool, The Hulk, and Elektra.

The movie is actually signed by Shawn Levy, which I somehow love.

It doesn't promise much, but it's pretty good at delivering what it promises.

Ryan Reynolds is in front of us with the same character he has been playing for the last 15 years.

What really surprises me is the harmony of someone like Raynolds, who was in front of the camera with the world's greatest actors and actresses, with Walker Scobell, who had his first acting experience at the age of 12.

They made a great duo team.

The film is technically trouble-free, even near perfect.

CGI and Cinematography are very good.

Sound Engineering is excellent, 5.1.2 Atmos speakers are used very effectively. In some scenes, all the windows and doors in the house shook.

Long story short, 'The Adam Project' is a movie made to entertain the audience and it succeeds.

I am surprised the overall reviews are as low as they appear. I really enjoyed this film.

I laughed out loud. I was surprised. I had a tear in my eye. Great balance of action, humor, and emotion. This is my perfect entertainment movie.

Even though the plot and story is related to the moral issues of time travel, that is not the message.

The Adam Project has great visual effects & great performances by the cast, but the Movie has simply weak storyline. Watch this movie with least expectations, then you won't be disappointed.

This film is bad. There is no way around it. And I know that there are many other films with the same amount of logic holes (and perhaps the same plot!) that are considered at least average, but those are older movies. If you clone a barely average old film now and all you have to add to it is Ryan Reynolds' jokes as an improvement, then you fail.

Forget that time travel films are notoriously hard to have making sense: even in that very specific subgenre, this film is at the bottom of anything resembling reason. What you are left with are (very!) cheap video game like special effects, Reynolds' and the kid (he did a good work, BTW) spouting jokes and puns and guest star appearances from Mark Ruffalo, Jennifer Garner and Zoe Saldana (they all have like a few minutes of screen time each, just to get a paycheck). Even the "endearing" part that people talk about is mostly nostalgia for better films from 30 years ago and nothing to do with the script.

Bottom line: I like Ryan Reynolds, he is fun, but all of his movies have become the same thing with different backgrounds. They don't even make the effort to make it seem like they tried. With this in mind, I doubt even Deadpool 3 will be any different, which would be a terrible shame. Films like The Adam Project are a disgrace, a show of bad faith and lack of respect to viewers. At least Reynolds should know better.

Honestly, this movie feels how movies used to be when they were better. Some of these negative reviews on here really make me sad, because obviously the people writing don't want to have fun or are "too cool" for a feel good movie. It's a great family movie, drawing inspiration from a handful of classics before it such as Flight of the Navigator and Back to the Future but also keeping it fresh with great special effects and cinematography. It's also a tear jerker... and reminded me of how a lot of movies used to be made to trigger a positive emotional response, something that is missing completely from most modern cinema.

A movie hasn't made me feel this way in a long time. I felt like a kid again watching it. I'm not "too cool" for this movie. It rocks. Great cinematography, acting, script, comedy and drama. It's a great all ages movie. It's a rare thing to get one like this during "dark times". In my opinion, we need more like this more than ever right now.

Well, based on the cast ensemble alone then I figured that this 2022 sci-fi action adventure would be a movie worth-while watching. And thus, I needed no persuasion to sit down and watch what writers Jonathan Tropper, T. S. Nowlin, Jennifer Flackett and Mark Levin had in store with this movie.

And honestly, then the movie was every bit as entertaining and enjoyable as anticipated. Which means that director Shawn Levy managed to do a great job at bringing the script and storyline to life on the screen in an enjoyable and entertaining manner.

Sure, "The Adam Project" is the type of movie where you essentially just lean back, munch on the snacks and watch the movie. Yeah, it wasn't particularly a very cerebral movie, despite of it revolving around something as complex as time travel. But hey, it is a movie meant for entertainment after all, this wasn't exactly an exact science.

Visually then "The Adam Project" is rather impressive. But of course, with a movie project such as this, the funding is large and very capable of sustaining great visuals. And a movie such as "The Adam Project" does need proper CGI effects to fully function as intended on the screen. And trust me, the effects served their purpose.

"The Adam Project" has a good cast ensemble, which funnily enough brought together four members of the Marvel CMU, a funny little detail. Especially since "The Adam Project" does poke fun at aforementioned MCU. The movie has the likes of Ryan Reynolds, Mark Ruffalo, Zoe Saldana and Jennifer Garner on the cast list to carry the movie, which they did quite well. In addition, the young actor Walker Scobell really managed to stand tall among such established performers.

While "The Adam Project" certainly is a watchable and enjoyable movie, it hardly strikes me as a movie that I will be returning to watch a second time, as the storyline just didn't have all that much solid contents to it.

My rating of "The Adam Project" lands on a six out of ten stars.

Pffff...so boring...have seen this a billion times before and done better.

You might enjoy it if you are under 14 years of age. Otherwise hard pass. If you want a movie to watch with your 10 -14 year old kid, sure, otherwise: hard pass.

But worst of all is Ryan Reynolds who apparently now doesn't know how to do anything other than variations on his deadpool character. Here we have Deadpool rated G. In the original Deadpool we had Deadpool rated R bordering on NC-17. Every movie he's done since he is just a version of Deadpool. That other horrible netflix movie he was in with the Rock, was Deadpool rated PG-13. It now is so boring, unimaginative, repetitive and flavorless (deadpool is only good at charicatural rated-R level bordering on NC-17 ) + the scripts and stories he chooses feel like recycled stories: let's take 20% this movie, 30% that movie and 50% this other movie, add the worst cheesiest dialogue ever, a soundtrack of "hip" retro songs à la "Guardians of the Galaxy" and voila!

It's like Chris Pratt and Ryan Reynolds are now competing to see who can be the most repetitive snarky character in every movie. So so soooo boring. Seems since the Avengers franchise Hollywood now only does one tone if it's not a drama: cheesy snark.

Pass.

The Adam Project is an adventurous film in the mould of Spielberg and other '80's and 90's pics, meaning confused conversations, quick quips, great close ups and seeing the world from a child's point of view as well.

The plot is a time travel story where our main character meets his younger self, trying to fix the damage a villain inflicted, and that's all the narrative I'll share beforehand. It's well shot, well directed, well written, and well played, especially by young Adam.

It leaves us with an entertaining film that plotwise isn't surprising enough to elevate it to greatness, but a good watch nonetheless.

I'm a huge Ryan Reynolds fan, and have been told I sound like him, both in voice and in humor.

Ryan Reynolds plays a man from the future who travels back in time and meets the 12-year-old version of himself. The similar mannerisms between the older and younger Adam is well rehearsed, as is their sarcastic comebacks.

Both characters have recent darkness in their lives, and even though the plot has nothing to do with them helping each other to get through their personal hardships, just being around each other helps them to a small degree of recovery. Meanwhile, bad guys from the future are trying to find the older Adam, while school bullies enjoy beating up the younger Adam.

A good balance of comedy and fight/flight scenes. There's some sci-fi knowledge about time travel required to understand a few later parts, and the futuristic weapons are very cool (especially the lightsaber that "isn't a lightsaber.").

But, the second half of the movie (when the older and younger Adam travel together to yet another point in time) doesn't make much sense. There's no logical reason for why the younger Adam has to travel through time, nor why he is even still in the movie (his lines of dialog likewise become nonessential, which is a shame.).

I also didn't care much for the primary villain: whom is a warm, close family friend in the past, but -- in just three years -- inexplicitly becomes a homicidal introvert fueled by personal greed? (Huh?! Why?) Plus, the breaking into a scientific research facility which apparently has zero employees: no minimum-wage security guards, maintenance or landscapers anywhere to be seen ... it must have been a nonworking Saturday (even though they just left a crowded college campus with active classes going on?!).

I don't want to give anything more away than this because it's worth watching. (7 out of 10)

I gotta admit, I underestimated it because it's a Ryan Reynolds movie made by Netflix - two big red flags that it's gonna suck, but I'm happy to be wrong for once.

Cause at first I'm like "yeah, he's playing the typical beta male comic relief punching bag for StRoNg uGlY wYmEn characters" - and yes, he is, as always.

But there's a beautiful relationship in here, well executed comedy, great pacing and action... It's a good time. Probably this guy's best movie so far.

Great acting from "Adam", "little Adam", and Adam's wife too. Emotional and touching when it needs to be, comical when it needs to be.

A -{ Netflix }- MINI Review ; Film Seen around March 27, 2022. It is -{ Not }- very likely to be released in Cinemas.

If you're someone who's presently in the mood to take a -Welcome- Break from all the doom and gloom on the news right now and watch a movie that comes "FULL-CIRCLE" in the most Enthralling, Engaging, and indeed -{ Heartwarming }- of ways . . . Then I wish to -Wholeheartedly- recommend "The Adam Project", ( TAP for short ), to you. The only -Other- cinematic experience I've had where a film came Full-Circle in -Such- beautiful fashion, in -Recent- memory at least, would be the simply Fabulous "SpiderMan: No Way Home" ( "SM-NWH" ). It is a picture that literally ( And -Very- Cleverly ) ties up loose ends within the -{ Entire }- Spiderman CANON of films, from as far back as 2002. It also just happens to be the -Last- Massive Blockbuster that I reviewed ; before going on an -Entirely- unplanned, ( but -Incredibly- refreshing ) 'Extended 101-day hiatus from reviewing'.

Ok, so if you thought that the 13 yr. Old "Newcomer" of said film, pint-sized thespian Walker Scobell was a tremendous -Dramatic- actor, well, then you'd only be -Half- right. The fact of the mater is... he's also a terrific -COMEDIC- talent, with seriously "Impeccable" timing, especially given that this is, get this ...his -{ First Ever }- movie or TV ( 'Feature' ) appearance. Factor Walker's "Super-Fun" performance in alongside a 'full spectrum' of absolute -{ "POWERHOUSE!" }- deliveries from the film's unequivocal ensemble principal cast of Protagonists ( Zoe Saldaña, Ryan Reynolds, Mark Ruffalo, Jennifer Garner, ) . . . Then add in some absolutely -Fantastic- ( & truly state of the art ) CGI, a genuinely -Mindblowing- grand finale set piece ...and the kind of fight choreography that you really have to -See- ...to believe . . . & you have a seriously, seriously exciting picture, indeed.

Not to mention FUNNY AS HELL!!! I really hadn't laughed so hard in a long time ; -since- ( about the 3rd time ) I watched SM-NWH, to be precise. On the downside, though . . . & if I'm to be 'painfully' honest . . . -Both- the Villain ( ...don't get me wrong, the person who plays the main 'baddie' is a Veteran performer ; I just felt like the Writing there could have been just that "Little Bit Stronger"... ) -And- her 'ever loyal' henchman are a 'tad weak', as is the very title of the film, itself. Even something as ( relatively ) simple as "FLASH-BACK-FORWARD", would have been -{ Far }- catchier than its existing name, ( although I do think I sorta understand -Why- they called it what they did, for what it's worth ). It's for these two reasons -Alone- that I -Didn't- give it my trademark "25/10" ; reserved especially for movies That Move Me -{ VERY }- Deeply, as TAP ( ...quite obviously... ) -Did-.

Summary: This is a picture that, ( among -several- other things ), pointedly asks the question: If you could -{ Somehow }- go back in time, & talk to your Younger-Self... "WHAT'D YOU SAY?" ...and in the most -Intriguing- of ways, at that. Furthermore, having lost my Dearly Beloved Father when I was -Just- 13, in a horrible, brutal car crash, TAP resonated with me PROFOUNDLY. It has some Genuinely "TENDER" Moments, & does a -Phenomenal- job of addressing the issue of 'Estranged Father-Son Relationships' the world over, but most especially in the USA ; ( where the film is also -Set- ) ; and where the issue is quite possibly now almost at epidemic levels, what with the country's sky-high divorce rate, separation rate, & just plain old 'Absentee Father-ism', in general. All said & done, the "EVER-DYNAMIC! Duo" of Actor Ryan Reynolds & Director Shawn Levy have well & truly "Done it Again". Although this -ISN'T- a Marvel movie, It -does- star a "Handful Of Marvel's Best & Brightest" and -is- ultimately, " A ( not so ) little cinematic streaming MARVEL 🌠 ", in its 'Very Own Right'. Sadly, I'm not able to give TAP my 'Absoluuut-High-Score' ( as I explained a bit earlier ), but it -Still- earns a "Majestic, Rock Solid 13 Marks Out Of 10 Marks" from me . . . Nonetheless!!!

"Teenage boys are horrible. It's like living with a urinal cake that yells at you"

Shawn Levy's "The Adam Project" turned out exactly as I had imagined. It's fun, full of energy and has a rather powerful ground of emotions that hit you like a truck. Believe it or not, this specific aspect would have a greater say over everything else. It will depend upon how much you value the 'Humane' stuff; based on that, it will either make or break your experience and could modify the final takeaway as well.

Speaking for myself, I'm a sensitive person; and these kinds of stuff make me emotional, and here is no exception. I just loved the dynamic shown here. The father & son alliance hasn't been explored enough in recent times, I'm delighted they did that in here and that too in the most adorable fashion possible. And yeah, the actors did their parts too.

Say what you want, Ryan Reynolds has nailed it yet again. I know some part of the audience won't agree with my above statement. "Ryan Reynolds getting repetitive", "He's playing himself", "He's doing the same thing over and over again"; now, I won't deem them as lies, as most of these statements do reflect the reality or at least some parts of it. But then again, as long as he's getting the job done, doing well on his part, I see nothing wrong in there.

Besides, nobody would argue against the talent this man seems to possess. From his stellar dialogue deliveries to his perfect comic timings, No other actor could do those things in the way he does, he's one of a kind, he's unparalleled in this space. And I truly admire him for that, and you know what? I'm not at all apologetic while acknowledging the same.

So, It seems we've finally concluded, this is the part where I'm supposed to tell you whether you should go to the film or not. Look, I loved Levy's previous work i.e. Free Guy; although that doesn't necessarily suggest I had higher expectations this time, on the contrary, I did know this would not be the same sort of experience, because of various reasons. All I can say is that, if you are here for nothing but the sole value of entertainment, congratulations, you have come to the right place. Or else, get yourself prepared for a tiny dose of disappointment!

If you like Ryan Reynolds, you'll probably enjoy The Adam Project. This sci-fi action movie features his usual quick-witted schtick you've come to expect, but it also has an interesting premise, exciting action scenes, and even some real emotion. I do wish they would have toned down the profanity, but overall I found The Adam Project to be an enjoyable adventure.

This film is splendid. Yes! The plot isn't that complicated still the overall film is amazing. From the cinematography to the action, all eye candy. The dialogs are legit good! After a while I watched a movie with decent dialogs and humour. Overall loved it!

It's amazing to me how low the bar is set and how easily people are entertained these days. There is absolutely zero that's new or interesting in this movie. The cast is great but the dialogue is in a loop over and over again. It's the same scene that's rehashed again and again. The premise is tired. We've seen Reynolds's schtick a few times by now. It was a bit of a chore to not turn it off.
