65 Movie Review

Apart from the smattering of original screenplays, the rest are rehashed from older plots. Quite a few movies are just almost carbon copy remakes, others add some current affairs or new technology but essentially the plot remains the same.
Some perform as well as the older, others bomb and yet others make far more.

So will smith took his real son and made a movie about crashing landing on earth and taking a perilous journey to escape a few years back and we'll say it wasn't exactly a success..

So Adam driver decides to make a movie about him crashlanding on earth 65 million years ago and finding another survivor, then they must journey across a landscape strewn with dangerous dinosaurs to find the escape craft.

Sounds familiar ?

There's a paternal child angle here too and apart from the action scenes which are decently executed, the director tries to add this extra emotional dimension to give the movie some depth and latitude.

It is interesting that they make the girl only speak misqit or something so there's a language barrier but not that much is made of this angle.

With the dinosaurs providing the action, The poor tyrannosaurus is asked to play the carnivorous main antagonist again but we also see some unidentifiable monsters that substitute for the one dimensional obligatory villains that such an adventure requires.

So there's action, thrills and spills plus the bonding that actually makes the two hour movie not too tedious to follow, something I can't say the same of in Will Smith's effort. Maybe it's is because the child in this movie is less annoying..

The sound is decent and should be a treat in a good home theater system.

Should you rent, buy or avoid then?

It was a good distraction so I'll say rent it and see if you like it.
