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 tolerate slow-burn survival stories with occasional dinosaur action, this is a decent way to kill 90 minutes. If you're expecting the thrilling creature feature the premise promises, you'll be bored by long stretches of tedious wandering punctuated by underwhelming monster encounters.
