65 - Ameaça Pré-Histórica

I was very curious about this film since it seemed very simple in concept to those of some of the best movies in the past decades. Not to mention having phenomenal actor Adam Driver fighting dinosaurs, who wouldn't watch it? After finishing the movie, I can at least say the movie was a competent and engaging watch, but wasn't as exciting as the trailers made it out to be.

First of all, Adam Driver is fantastic in this movie. Despite the simplistic and somewhat predictable narrative, he's still engaging to watch as a desperate man trying to survive and rescue the only other survivor, a young foreign girl. And Props to Ariana Greenblatt for pulling off a helpless girl with a language opposite of the lead and still having good chemistry.

Other than that, the movie doesn't really utilize it's concept that well with the battle of scientific technology and prehistoric creatures. There are only a few instances where we can see him use strategy and the use of various gadgets to take them down. While those scenes are fun, it's very little throughout the movie.

I was worried that this movie could have been awful since it gave me very similar vibes to After Earth, and I'm sure you don't need me to explain why. But I can at least say that writer and directors Scott Beck and Bryan Woods didn't drop the ball that badly. I can also respect that they want to bring Hollywood back to basics with concepts that are simple, yet effective. While slow paced, and at times underwhelming, I can at least say I enjoyed myself while watching.

I really think this film would be doing much better at the box office with a better title and clearer marketing. This is a more than serviceable action thriller starring a legitimate star that is mostly entertaining for its 90 minute runtime.

The CGI is surprisingly good given the small budget and it's cool seeing dinos in a non-Jurassic Park film. The story is probably the weakest element given its cliched beats and real Last of Us vibe. Some wooden dialogue and lack of exposition round out my critiques. I liked the futuristic tech in the film and Driver delivers an expected solid showing. 65 won't light the genre on fire, but it's better than it's getting credit for.

The plot is updated and integrated themes from various older ones, but it works. The CGI is well done and feels right. The interaction between the two primary characters is well done and they connect .

Adam Driver plays the role very well as the clinical , angry pilot. Yet warm and caring as time goes on.

Ariana Greenblatt plays the role of a scared child , who is confused about what is going on. She also brings some humor to the movie. Her acting is superb . One minute she is a scared little girl , the next she is making fun of Adam .

I enjoyed it, then I love survival movies. So this is a perfect movie for me.

Easily had more potential than what was served up. I was really looking forward to this when I seen the trailer but this had next to 0 marketing..one thing that did attract me was Sam Raimi was producing so instantly it got my attention. The CGI is so mixed one minute at the beginning it's like watching the BBC walking with Dinosaurs program that was released around 20 years ago but the CGI middle to end is good? It's like they kept the budget for the big finale but there isn't a lot of Dinosaurs in this, so if you're going with tye expectations of seeing a lot of Dinosaurs you won't get it. There's a period in the middle of the film were it just sort of trudges on with not much happening. I personally would watch it again but I won't be in a rush to and I'm highly disappointed they didn't do better in every department..story action and CGI.

The movie was alright. Graphics were good and acting was fine as well, but somehow I felt it didn't make the connection it supposed to. Too bland. The thrilling moment didn't make me sit in anticipation that what will happen. I usually like these kinds if movie, but this was just okay. It wasn't bad and most will enjoy it. Good movie for theatre. Whole family can go, but I felt something missing.

Acting was good by all.

Story was simple and simply told Action was good Not that gripping.

Duration was fine of the movie.

I do recommended watching in the cinema. It is better enjoyed there. I guess I had more expectation from Sam Raimi film.
