Adam Driver’s remarkable star power is revitalizing one of the actor’s most significant failures through the medium of streaming. Despite being the worst-reviewed film in Driver’s entire career, the sci-fi actioner 65 has managed to captivate audiences and make a substantial impact with its Netflix release.
65 currently holds the second position on Netflix’s Top 10 movies this week. This represents an impressive comeback for a movie that received mediocre reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, barely earning enough to cover its production budget and failing to generate profits at the global box office, as indicated by The Numbers.
We can attribute the dramatic redemption of 65 to a large extent to Driver, who has delivered several critically acclaimed and commercially successful films on the streaming platform, namely Noah Baumbach’s Marriage Story and his subsequent work, White Noise. Although not universally lauded like the Oscar-winning Marriage Story of 2019, this satirical adaptation of Don DeLillo’s post-modern novel garnered considerable praise from critics upon its release last year, particularly for Driver’s performance.
Let’s face it, Driver, a two-time Oscar nominee, is in no danger of jeopardizing his career due to one misstep like 65, especially now that the film is experiencing a renaissance on streaming. While this survival adventure movie depicting humanoid space travelers battling dinosaurs on ancient Earth may not reach the same iconic status as Driver’s portrayal of Kylo Ren in the modern Star Wars films, it unquestionably resonates with the casual Netflix audience seeking random explosions and dinosaur roars to lull them to sleep.
