65
The brief
Adam Driver crashes on prehistoric Earth with a kid and has to fight dinosaurs while racing an extinction-level asteroid, which sounds way cooler than it actually is. The 92-minute runtime feels padded despite being lean, with stretches of tedious survival mechanics punctuated by brief bursts of creature feature mayhem that never quite deliver the B-movie thrills you're craving. Driver does his best brooding space dad routine, but the language barrier gimmick with his young co-star mostly just creates dead air where tension should be. Perfect for anyone who thought "A Quiet Place" needed more generic sci-fi nonsense and fewer actual scares.
The verdict
If you're a die-hard Adam Driver fan who can sit through slow-burn survival stories for a few decent dinosaur action sequences, this is a passable Saturday afternoon watch. If you're expecting genuine thrills or meaningful sci-fi storytelling, skip this tedious slog that wastes its promising premise on generic execution and awkward pacing.
