    A Good Movie with Great Potential

    This Movie is really interesting and the story unfolds throughout. The ending is fantastic and everything a sci-fi fan would hope for. I just wish the rest of the movie was like that. The main character is complex and conflicted about his actions. I think this movie should have been rated R if they were going to have a "Girls Girls Girls" scene. Other than that, I like the cameo at the end and the cast is on point. This movie could be even better, but with what we have it is enjoyable and different from anything else out there.

    The ending was incredible

    Truthfully, half of the movie I was bored. The characters were good, the story was "eh". However! The ending W-O-W, I couldn't keep my eyes away, it was unexpected and I couldn't believe it was ending. Now I cannot wait until the next one comes out. Sincerely, the ending changed my whole view about the movie. I want to know more!

    Could be better, but interesting story..

    There is not much I can say about this movie,except that it felt more like the fist part of a book than a movie and I was looking for part 2 even before the credits were done. Not because the film was good or great, nor because the acting because it could have been better, the stenography was in part both understandable, working and dull at the same time. And it felt short, like a part was missing.

    The core of the story on the other hand was interesting and it has been a long time since a movie story has had a core story that was interesting to me. Don't take me wrong the story could have been better and it felt unfinished in an unsatisfying way.

    I'm an avid movie buff and have loved movies for over 30 years, I love fantasy, science fiction, books and above all I love stories that has not been TOLD before like most movies that comes out. This story felt untapped, like there were more to tell and I hadn't heard something quite like it in a looong time and they should have lots nice words for just that

    The story didn't feel derivative like most movies and tv-shows these days and it has gotten noticeably worse the last decade or so, so this was a nice way for me at least to spend 70 minutes or so, but maybe just maybe not everyone will see it the same way I do and at least some, if I go by the comments online, didn't get a major part of the story at all..

    Still I want the rest of the story told, read or seen..

    Not nearly as bad as some are making it out to be

    Will Kin win any awards? That's highly unlikely. Is it a sufficiently entertaining movie that many people will be able to watch it and be happy enough upon its conclusion that they chose to do so? Yes, it is.

    Like a lot of the 80s sci-fi flicks I really enjoyed as a kid.

    'KIN': Three and a Half Stars (Out of Five)

    A sci-fi action flick about an adopted teenage boy and his recently paroled brother who go on the run from violent vengeful criminals, as well as the law and aliens, with a secret otherworldly weapon. It was directed by debut feature filmmakers Jonathan and Josh Baker, and it was written by Daniel Casey (based on a short film by the Bakers). The movie stars newcomer Myles Truitt, Jack Reynor, Zoe Kravitz, James Franco and Dennis Quaid. It's received mostly negative reviews from critics, but I mostly enjoyed it. It's definitely uneven, and not a great film by any means, but it is fun and involving. The performances are all good in it, and it reminds me of a lot of the 80s sci-fi flicks I really enjoyed as a kid. I had a good time watching it.

    • Trivia
      The movie was based on a dream one of the directors had involving a young boy sitting in a run down mid-western hotel bathroom analyzing a futuristic weapon. This scene was later incorporated into the film.
    • Goofs
      Shoot out at the police station shows Eli walking through a lot of debris which includes many unfired cartridges with bullets still intact.
    • Crazy credits
      Michael B. Jordan's executive producer credit doesn't appear until the end of the film, presumably to keep the surprise of his cameo in the movie's climax.
