The movie is 101 minutes, so not long, but the camera never moves. Hanks and Wright are de-aged with AI.

 

[*Nightwing]

90 seconds is too much watching a single static camera angle in 2024…


…add a second screen with someone playing a fast paced action game at same time or it will fail

 

[SJRB]

Oscar-bait wankfest.

 

[Hrk69]

Looks very good to me. I'm always in for more Hanks

This is going to be a tearjerker from the looks of it

 

[kruis]

This crazy idea could be either incredible or a total bust. I hope it's the former because Hollywood needs new ideas to get out of its remakes and sequels rut.

Oh, the music was based on Yes - I've Seen All Good People.

 

[AJUMP23]

Single camera in one location. Could be fascinating.

I hope there is a sequence where squatters move in and they have to fight to get them to leave and eventually they wait for them to leave and change the locks.

 

[jason10mm]

Basically a one room play then, not too outlandish.

I wonder if the time stream will be linear or if it will jump back and forth, I'm guessing the latter to keep it more interesting.

[Red Crayon Aristocrat]

They're ripping off The Tree of Life by having a family drama start with the age of the dinosaurs, but it's still a cool idea.

 

[poppabk]

Why does deaged Tom Hanks look like Topher Grace. I had to actually check IMDB to confirm he wasn't in it.

 

[trikster40]

I'm intrigued to see if a movie like this can be successful in today's market. It's going to go right over the mass market's head as far as the cinematic techniques go. As for me, looks awesome, and as I get older, these sorts of movies get to me.

 

[Hawking Radiation]

Im all in for something diffirent, something new. This trailer just did it for me. I'll go see this.

 

[Lord Panda]

Was hoping to see a shot of their descendants in the dystopian cyberpunk future / robot wars apocalypse. Oh well.

 

[Dirk Benedict]

Looks alright, but the trailer uses all the usual shit sound effects and what have you, to entice emotion, rather than intrigue on substance.

 

[StueyDuck]

I appreciate that zemeckis always tries to do something different, or unique. But his last few attempts have been kind of wank.

But the guy directed back to the future so he'll always be a gem in my books

 

[RavenSan]

I'll probably wait until I can stream it -- but yeah, I'm interested.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

When it hits streaming like every movie now days count me in. Looks interesting as hell.

 

[Darko]

I’ll catch it on streaming . Looks good though. I’m in.

 

[John Bilbo]

CGI was a mistake.

 

[NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt]

CGI was a mistake.

Should have gotten a real life time machine

 

[Mr Reasonable]

Another film that looks interesting, I've said it repeatedly, but I think (hope) that cinema is starting to move on from relentless superhero movies.

If this reviews well, I'll go to the cinema to see it, things that are different are worth supporting, imo.

I also went and saw Ghostbusters and Planet of the Apes, just in case anyone thinks I'm coming off with some kind of snobby tone.

 

[jufonuk]

Looks good. I’m in

 

[Toots]

I'll probably catch it one way or another, like Jenny's aids.

 

[Amey]

1st shot looks like Deepfake

 

[ManaByte]

1st shot looks like Deepfake

It is. Using an AI program.

 

[Big Baller]

 

[kingwingin]

I love movies that take place in a single room. I’m 100% in

 

[sankt-Antonio]

CGI looks weak, feels like Oscar bait.

 

[nush]

Should have gotten a real life time machine

It's just a remake.

 

[SlimySnake]

I hate these gimmick movies. Blair Witch Project, Cloverfield and other FOV movies were complete trash. Just make what works. I dont want to see a movie with a fixed POV. its a fucking movie, not a theater production.

Hes one of my favorite directors but i agree. The last good movie i saw from him was Allied which was mostly just ok. And before that Beowulf all those years ago which also had its own issues. He's fallen off big time. I didnt even like Forrest Gump, but Contact, What Lies Beneath, and Cast Away are amazing movies mostly because of his direction.

I feel he tries too hard to incorporate the latest technologies, which is admirable but it feels the tech has kind of gotten away from him, the witches movie definitely felt like that.

I'll still give this movie a watch obviously. Like you say he has made literal all time classics so the man knows how to direct

 

[IDKFA]

It's original concepts like this that pull me back into the cinema. Looking forward to this one.
