65 : La Terre d'avant

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.

TIL chatGPT cannot write a 'negative' review because it would be harmful against a group of people lol.

"Wow, what a cinematic masterpiece we have here! A stunning performance by a stupid little girl who manages to trip over her own feet for the majority of the film. And let's not forget the highlight of the movie - Adam Driver firing his gun with such precision and accuracy while going 'pew pew' - a truly groundbreaking moment in cinema history! It's not every day that you get to witness such innovative and profound acting. Bravo! The storyline is so riveting that it will leave you questioning your own sanity by the time the credits roll. I mean, who needs plot coherence or character development when you have Adam Driver shouting 'pew pew' at the top of his lungs? In conclusion, if you're looking for a movie that will leave you with nothing but regret and a feeling of wasted time, then look no further!"

I'm the exact target audience for this movie. I'm a sci-fi junkie, I love thrillers, Adam Driver is awesome, and I'll watch basically anything with large scary creatures. This should have been a layup for me to like. Yet I found myself unengaged and somewhat bored. I started feeling sleepy even after a Red Bull.

I don't really know how or why it happened, but this is just a forgettable movie. Some dumb things happen but I am able to turn my brain off. Although after watching the Angry Joes review, I didn't realize how many dumb things I ignored. I guess I just didn't care enough to notice them.

I hope a movie like this doesn't discourage studios from going for more of these mid-budget movies. I like the idea of an isolated story somewhere random in space/time. I just hope they do a better job next time. (1 viewing, opening Sunday 3/12/2023)

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 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.
