The season finale of "The Last of Us" left me utterly confused. Why were the roles of Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey suddenly recast with Adam Driver and Ariana Greenblatt? Why does Ellie suddenly not speak English anymore? And why is Joel's daughter suddenly named Nevine and not Sarah? I didn't see the time travel plot to the age of the dinosaurs coming either.
Getting back to seriousness, "65" is a pretty boring movie that would have been a perfect fit for Netflix. Nothing is really all that bad, nothing is particularly good. Everything is extremely mediocre. You've probably forgotten most of the plot by the time the credits roll. Adam Driver is a fantastic actor and Ariana Greenblatt has been good elsewhere (for example in "Love and Monsters"), but neither get any material to work with here. From a technical standpoint, there's not much to complain about with "65." The special effects are solid, and the film is competently shot. However, the plot is very repetitive, so despite a runtime of only 90 minutes, I kept looking at my watch. If you are eager to see the film, you should wait until it is available on a streaming service.
If it was renamed "Dinos & Guns" it'd have done and would do a lot better at the box office. A minimalist mostly two character SciFi thriller. It was decent. Nothing groundbreaking but worthy of a rainy Sunday afternoon at the movie theater. 6.3 for me.
Well this was a boring movie. This is basically Jurrasic Park meets Lost in Space with a pinch of the Last of Us. Almost nothing happens after the start and dialogue isn't happening because they speak different languages. Instead of putting a hint in the title or opening with it, they should have made the fact that this is earth a reveal like in After Earth (2013). In short a quality production with a quality actor with a snooze fest of a story. If you like the concept and want to see it better, at 10% of the budget, go look up the flick Prospect (2018) with Pedro Pascal.
Alright but story definitely could have been fleshed out further
good Sci-Fi thriller. Don't expect a pure horror movie. I'd say it goes along the line of Prey (2022).

Jurassic Park ran so this Land of the Lost rip-off could walk to Netflix on Saturday morning.
