Movie Review: Does ’65’ Crash And Burn?
Here’s a little-known fact about me, I am a total dinosaur nerd, so I was super excited when I first saw the trailer for writer-directors Scott Beck and Bryan Woods’ movie 65. I finally got a chance to see it this weekend, and needless to say, I have some thoughts. Warning Spoilers Ahead! The trailer gave viewers the impression that it was nonstop action, which is false. We were lied to. Instead of an action film, we get a drama that happens to have a few dinosaurs in it. The major plot twist, which was a pretty good one, was that the planet they landed on was Earth 65 million years ago, only a few days before the asteroid hit Earth that wiped out the dinosaurs. There’s a character problem. Adam Driver’s character is disconnected and aloof in 99% of the movie, in which he plays the transport ship, Captain Mills. It makes it hard to connect with him. If
