65

Outlander meets Jurassic Park. But without the cool alien dragon and other bits that made Outlander so great. Rated this high because it was entertaining if not 100% predictable. Plus the effects were good and it was nice to see the raptors like the over sized turkeys they were. Good for a rainy day. But don't expect much from this.

Surprisingly very good. Plenty of action and cool special effects. Story is good too.

9/10

Not quite sure how I did not find out about this one.

It’s short and to the point but with great acting and heart.

I really dont know why the bad comments. I liked it and thats that. 😏

65 is dumb sci-fi but it hits that guilty pleasure spot. Adam Driver crash-lands on prehistoric Earth, dinosaurs are everywhere, and survival is the whole game. The story is predictable, the science makes no sense, and the script is thin, but it’s still entertaining as a survival flick. What really works is the chemistry between Adam Driver and Ariana Greenblatt. They sell the growing trust and the parental figure bond in a way that gives the movie heart. It’s not smart or original but it’s a fun ride when you just want popcorn thrills.

Don't know what people are talking about. The movie was pretty great with some humorous moments strewn around.

Don't know what everyone is complaining about,I enjoyed every minute of this film.It is what it is.7 out of 10.

I’ll be one of the few voices in comments that will say this was a decent movie. It’s not perfect, by any means, but it is actually decent.

Adam Driver, whom I’m not a huge fan of, did a pretty good job in this movie. Why am I not a fan of his? Well, he’s not the greatest actor but, and this is more important, he killed Han Solo. That wrong can never be righted like an [spoiler]upside down escape pod[/spoiler].

I think the premise of this movie is fascinating to watch and ponder. It does leave a few holes to be filled, but you can use your imagination for this.

In all, this is actually good Science Fiction because while his presence is all fiction (or is it, could this have really happened?), some of the rest of the presence is fact and all good science fiction has some basis in science fact.
[spoiler]
The idea that humans were on the earth 65 million years ago is an interesting one. One hole that’s left to the imagination is, “ok, then, was it the DNA brought by these people that seeded and then allowed evolution to eventually created earths human population?” It’s interesting to think about. It’s pretty far out there, but interesting anyway. In no way would I believe that Earth would have spawned human civilization identical in nearly every way as it’s other worldly travelers, so DNA contamination is the only logical conclusion.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]I like the fact that there was a language barrier and I think they overcame it well. Greenblatt did a good enough job as the girl, no complaints there really.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]The only part I find convenient, really, is that the upside down life pod was righted by the very Dino that he fought with earlier in the movie. A bit too convenient really. Let’s face it, once the pod got torn off the main ship, if the damage didn’t prevent it from ever running again I would be surprised - let alone magically getting righted just perfectly by Mr. Dino.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]If I’m picking nits, then I’ll pick one with the fact that he was brought down to earth by the very asteroid that would soon - VERY soon - change it forever. A bit trite, but I get why it is an important part of the story.

The Dino’s were well done, in fact all the special effects, particularly the opening credits where they show this mind blowing view of the cosmos is breathtakingly stunning.

If you are a fan of science fiction I think this is worth the pretty light 90 minute run time (compared to many 2 or 3 hour movies that are far worse). I still find myself pondering some of the aspects of the movie and “what-if” scenarios and I’m still thinking about the movie, it made a mark and that’s enough for me to say it’s worth the watch.

If science fiction isn’t your thing, this may not be either.

I enjoyed this movie. Not too long, good effects and good pace all the way. :thumbsup_tone1: Well worth a watch :thumbsup_tone1:

Don’t know what all the critic fuss is about, cuz this was a decent sci-flick imho!
