REVIEW: 65 (2023) - Starring Adam Driver & Ariana Greenblatt
"65" is an American science fiction action-thriller film written and directed by Scott Beck and Bryan Woods.
On the distant, technologically advanced planet Somaris, pilot Mills (Adam Driver) convinces his wife (Nika King) that he should take on a two-year space expedition to earn money needed to treat their daughter Nevine's (Chloe Coleman) illness. However, on the journey back to Somaris, their spaceship is hit by a mass of asteroids and crash-lands on an uncharted planet. With his ship damaged and split in half, he finds that his passengers have been killed and contemplates suicide until he finds a lone survivor, a young girl named Koa (Ariana Greenblatt). Mills decides to take care of Koa. However, the two have difficulty communicating due to differing languages and a broken translator. The unknown planet is then revealed to be Earth 65 million years ago during the Cretaceous period.
At just 86 minutes, minus credits, this film has already ticked a huge box for me regarding runtime. But is the film any good?
Let's first take a look at the plot.
