Featured reviews
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.

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.

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.
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 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.

- TriviaWhen Louis Reed (Mark Ruffalo) says that he 'gets' a student's T-shirt during a lecture, the shirt has a picture of Nicolas Cage, but the name John Travolta under it. This is a reference to the John Woo film Volte/face (1997) in which the two actors played each other's characters. Cage and Ruffalo also had collaborated on Woo's Windtalkers : Les Messagers du vent (2002).
- GoofsAt 1:27:09 Louis mentions the gun fires rounds that contain a magnetic steel core; so, the weapon itself should have been pulled towards the reactor at the start of the breach, considering it pulls all things magnetic towards it. This would include its contents.
