On paper, this looks like an exciting proposition. last of us It proved to be a tried and tested template. But the movie falters because of its inability to replicate the character development and the bond between the leads that develops over time, which is why we cared about Joel and Ellie. 65’s The biggest drawback is its unconventionality. The film kicks off with the ‘oh wait, I know what movie it’s from’ during its short run. except last of us and visible similarity Jurassic Park Movies, shooting monsters, defending an unarmed child at the last moment and even a crowd of people dying in cryo-sleep remind us of countless monster and space movies.
what can be described as one of the very few positives of 65 is jumpcare and seeing how directors Scott Beck and Bryan Woods have written a brilliant a quiet place, this should come as no surprise. Despite the film offering very little for its lead actors to work with, the ever-reliable Adam Driver does his best to save this film. 65 does a decent job of establishing Mills’ past and the traumas he’s endured, but the film fails to show why he’s worth the lengths he’d go to save a stranger like Koa. The technology, weapons and gadgets are cool but they also remind you of video games halo, Thanks to all these missteps, what is supposed to be a slick action-thriller involving cool monster action on the surface and bottled-up emotions at its core and despite its 90-minute runtime turns out to be a plight, 65 It seems to last for 65 million years.
