65 movie

Read our review of '65,' a science fiction action movie where Adam Driver fight dinosaurs on prehistoric Earth.

The main event of it all, Driver fighting a T-rex, is something the film teases for all its worth before it unfolds in the conclusion. What should have been a stripped-down story is made into an overwrought and ambling film where the staging of the action ensures that it only rarely carries any actual weight. The fact that this species with the capacity to travel through space is still one where healthcare is not accessible to all is a grim prospect, but there is no interest in exploring this as it is all about getting the story in motion. A narrative built around traveling from point A to point B could work to keep the emphasis on the action. The trouble is that it can’t overcome what proves to be an unimaginative experience that is further hampered by poor direction, writing, effects, and everything a film needs to hold together. This all begins with on-screen text informing us of the necessary information to understand that our humanoid protagonist Mills (Driver) is actually part of an entirely different species than our own.

If you were to travel back in time you'd find a mix of the familiar and strange on our planet.

Of course, the question hanging over all of 65 is whether the inhabitants of the Cretaceous world would chase down a human morsel just for the novelty of it. Almost certainly mysteries and dangers existed in the Late Cretaceous of North America that we don’t know yet. rex in 65 indicates that the story unfolds in what’s now western North America, one of the areas of the Cretaceous world we’ve come to know quite well. “If a time traveler should be lost in the latest Cretaceous of North America,” says Alfio Alessandro Chiarenza, a paleontologist with the University of Vigo in Spain, they would see “lush tropical forests covering the lowlands to an abundance of streams running through them from nearby mountains.” The range wouldn’t look like it does today, but would be lower and still be in the process of being pushed up. Despite the impression that the Late Cretaceous was the peak of the “Age of Dinosaurs,” the great reptiles wouldn’t necessarily be around every other tree. For that reason, many production companies often shoot their prehistoric films in places like British Columbia, where mossy forests of redwoods at least approximate the Cretaceous look. Before considering a stroll through the Late Cretaceous forest, or to the theater, you should know a few things. Earth was still very much a greenhouse world, with high levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere but relatively lower amounts of oxygen than today. The world was warmer than it is now, with an average summer temperature of about 82 degrees, but ice had once again begun to build at the poles. We still inhabit the same planet as our favorite saurians, after all, and the world of the dinosaurs was not quite like what we often see in the movies. [revised the end of the Cretaceous Period](https://stratigraphy.org/ICSchart/ChronostratChart2012.jpg) to be about 66 million years ago rather than the previous estimate of 65.5. From the trailers released so far, 65 follows the struggle of a pilot (Adam Driver) and a child (Ariana Greenblatt) as they stumble through Cretaceous forests and past ancient geysers as they’re chased by Tyrannosaurus, Velociraptor-like carnivores and other prehistoric terrors.

This film feels like a low-key independent feature and the aim here is to make every challenge feel personal and therefore extraordinary.

This film feels like a low-key independent feature and the aim here is to make every challenge feel personal and therefore extraordinary. The stinker though is in the plot itself. The challenge for him now is not only to battle the Dinosaurs but to search out the escape pod and make it back to his home before Earth gets hit.

65, starring Adam Driver and Ariana Greenblatt, is out now in cinemas, but the sci-fi dinosaur movie just never lives up to its premise.

Instead of keeping them to separate movies, they merged them together and didn't succeed with either. Although the less said about where this story actually ends up, the better, even if the awkward nature of the final montage is a perfect capper to the confused tone of the entire movie. Beck and Woods certainly want to hit on deeper themes of grief and death, yet their own concept is inherently ridiculous so it's a tonal misfire. Here, there are dark, adult moments (such as Mills considering suicide) and they mesh awkwardly with the family-friendly sci-fi action. The movie was shrouded in secrecy until that [first trailer](https://www.digitalspy.com/movies/trailers/a42230581/65-movie-trailer-adam-driver/) made the title clear: it's 65 million years ago and a stranded pilot finds himself facing down dinosaurs. There's no real depth or subtlety here with an obvious metaphor of Mills trying to protect Koa like he couldn't his own daughter, so the emotional beats never land as you see them coming a mile off.

65 is an action adventure with dinosaurs and Adam Driver. From the writers of A QUIET PLACE and producer Sam Raimi. Movie Review >

[Adam Driver](https://www.heavenofhorror.com/reviews/star-wars-the-rise-of-skywalker-2019/) and [Ariana Greenblat](https://www.heavenofhorror.com/reviews/awake-netflix-gina-rodriguez/) work really well together, which does help the story. Also, the biggest mystery for me, is how a movie that has a runtime of just around 90 minutes, can be anything less than a whirlwind of dinosaur action scenes. [Love and Monsters](https://www.heavenofhorror.com/movie/love-and-monsters-2020/)) plays the role of Koa and does a wonderful job. The only reason 65 is set on our planet 65 million years ago, is so that we can watch dinosaurs. A movie they co-wrote and co-directed. When the movie opens, we see him with his wife and daughter on a foreign planet. This results in 65 having little dialogue as the characters revert to drawing and a form of charades. It works well enough for Mills to explain to Koa that they need to get to the one viable rescue pod 15 kilometers away. All you really need to say to make many people curious is that in 65, you’ll see Adam Driver fighting dinosaurs. The concept itself is simple, but the story still feels forced in too many ways. 65 is an action-adventure with dinosaurs and Adam Driver, which is enough to make many curious. From the writers of A QUIET PLACE and with horror master Sam Raimi producing.

Adam Driver grounds this sci-fi epic into a moving tale of human survival, underlining the film's central theme of adapting to the environment, ...

He’s just an evolved human who uses every possible weapon in the arsenal of a man up against a wall. They derive the thrill out of the Jurassic but also don’t bombard the viewers with uninterrupted action. Ishioka recreates this prehistoric Earth with as much precision as he designs the futuristic objects Miles brings with his spaceship. It’s like a tiny island of future in a sea of prehistoric past, without relying on the tired crutch of time travel. They’re the apex predators here and their evolution is arguably at the highest at this point. Totino uses a curious low angle to study the lone figure of Adam Driver, stealthily moving against tree branches that look menacingly stunning.

Adam Driver stars in '65' as a spaceship pilot stranded on Earth 65 million years ago. But is he supposed to be an alien? A time-traveler?

In a movie that didn’t start off by telling us it was taking place on Earth, this might be the final reveal, an aha moment that makes the context of the title clear — but it isn’t. And when I posed the same question to a studio representative as I had to friends, I was told something along the lines of “the answer is in your heart,” making me feel a warm sense of connection as I considered the possibility that the people involved in making, distributing, and marketing this motion picture shared my confusion. At no point during 65, which is the work of A Quiet Place writers Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, do Mills and Koa show the slightest recognition that the dinosaurs repeatedly trying to murder them are dinosaurs, which would be a point in the “aliens” column, or a sign that paleontology will fall drastically out of fashion in the millennia to come. What I’m getting at here is that I was running a little late to my screening of 65, and when I finally clambered into my seat in the dark, the movie had already started and I’d missed the first few minutes. One said yes, with the caveat that she’d seen it early enough that that might have changed — the movie has clearly been edited into oblivion, and there were rumors of multiple versions being A/B tested for audiences as late as last month. Film criticism is more an art than a science — a deeply human endeavor to which we bring our own personal histories, our insights, our limits, and our baggage in what is, more than anything, an act of sublimated autobiography.

It's Adam Driver vs. dinosaurs in 65, but somehow this movie doesn't realize how awesome its premise is.

It was interesting to see so few actors in a film, as it really put the onus on Driver to carry the film. Instead, you're treated to something that would have been just fine if you watched it at home on a streaming service. Along the way, Koa has to learn to trust Mills; Mills has to learn to open his heart to Koa; and the pair must dodge dinosaurs and treacherous terrain. It's enough to make you wonder if writer/director partners Scott Beck and Bryan Woods’ script was meddled with by the studio to get a little bit of something for everyone into the precise 90-minute runtime. Mills (Adam Driver) is a father who leaves his wife and daughter for two years to take on a special project that will pay him extra--money that will go to his ailing daughter's hospital bills. Based solely on the trailers, I went into 65 thinking it was going to be an epic time travel tale with dinosaurs as the main antagonists.

Yes, 65 will eventually be on Netflix as a result of a deal inked between the streaming platform and the movie’s distributor, Sony Pictures. Unsurprisingly, this is where the known cast list ends, and we don't even have the names of the characters yet. Through his talented character work, Driver has gained a superb reputation in Hollywood that makes his addition to this ensemble at the very least reassuring.
