Effortlessly entertaining with more than a hint of Spielberg-esque sci-fi flair, The Adam Project proves to be another surprise triumph for director Shawn Levy! A big part of the film’s appeal lands with the A+ cast. And while Ryan Reynold’s is his usual loveable wisecracking self, it’s Walker Scobel, his 12-year-old co-star (who plays a younger version of Reynold’s character) that steals the show. With his natural charisma and spot on expressions, I think we’ll be seeing a lot of Walker in the future! On the story front, let’s just say it is not gonna blow you away. In fact, it’s pretty “basic” stuff when it comes to cinematic time-traveling adventures. But, what it lacks in originality, it more than makes up for in heart. Yes, the emotion hits harder than the actual fisticuffs here – and that’s not bad thing! With plenty of themes around love and loss, let’s just say you may find a tear or two making their way down your cheek by the time the credits role. Again, we can thank the actors involved for all this by delivering the material so well. It really could have gotten overly melodramatic in less capable hands. Not here though - nope, the film finds its footing at every unlikely turn. So, here’s the thing, The Adam Project doesn’t change the sci-fi movie game, but it’s a silky-smooth addition you’ll love experiencing!
