If you're looking for another dinosaur film that will wow you with a great story, action and special effects, unfortunately, ‘65’, is not it. While not the worst sci-fi/dinosaur-themed movie, it definitely isn't the best.
In this boring, mess of a film, Adam Driver plays pilot Mills, who crash lands on what he will find out is Earth - 65 million years ago. He learns there is one other passenger on the ship he was flying, a young girl, Koa, who reminds him of his own daughter. Unfortunately, she speaks a different language and his translator was destroyed in the crash but somehow they are able to communicate anyway. I have never seen someone pick up being able to repeat foreign words and understand someone so quickly. As they begin the trek to get to the rescue ship that also crash landed, they encounter numerous dangerous creatures along the way and have to fight to survive.
The emotions, actions and acting on display leave a lot to be desired. Driver has definitely done much better and is out of his element in this movie. Definitely one you should wait and stream if you're bored one evening and want to watch something to pass the time.
