THE ADAM PROJECT movie review

There are many reasons to like Netflix's new sci-fi movie The Adam Project starring Ryan Reynolds, Jennifer Garner, Mark Ruffalo, Zoe Saldana, Walker Scobell and Catherine Keener. You're looking at familiar MCU actors and a story that's more than just sci-fi effects.

The MCU-lifted cast means you're going to love how it trolls MCU movies, especially the latest ones in that "multiverse" reference. It's not a spoiler, it's already mentioned in the trailer. In true Ryan Reynolds fashion, you'll be expecting more of this throughout the movie.

It's also a time-travel movie that you're going love. Its family theme really gets in the feels especially if you're one of those people who would like to turn back time and amend the wrong things you've done in the past. Your family relationship, how you dealt with other people, the old (Reynolds) and the young Adam (Scobell) have some provisions up to the end of the movie. It will also help you to think about your decisions in the future and eventually make yourself proud if you've made the right one.

Netflix releases THE ADAM PROJECT trailer

A week before it's premiere on Netflix, The Adam Project debuts its trailer and official poster that hypes up the Ryan Reynolds movie. The poster features Reynolds, Mark Ruffalo, Jennifer Garner, Walker Scobell and Zoe Saldana with a futuristic aircraft in the movie.

If you're getting an Avengers: Endgame, Star Wars or Indiana Jones vibes in the poster, same here. Funny but somehow expected of a trolling stint with Ryan Reynolds who is top-billing the movie. The trailer also promises an intense adventure of a pilot that teams up with his younger self and his father to come to terms with his past while saving the future. Watch it below.

The Adam Project is directed by Shawn Levi, the creator of Free Guy and arrives on Netflix, March 11.

Lin-Manuel Miranda voices a kinkajou in Netflix's Vivo

Lin-Manuel Miranda must be very busy with all the projects this year. From the successes of Hamilton, Mary Poppins Returns, In The Heights, and the upcoming Encanto and Tick, Tick.. Boom!, his soonest film is with Netflix and Sony Pictures Animation this August.

The Tony, Grammy and Pulitzer-award winner voices a kinkajou aka honey bear in Vivo where he voices the titular role. The musical animated film features the songs of Lin-Manuel. Hear a snippet of a song in the background of the release announcement below.

This Netflix film Vivo follows a one-of-kind kinkajou (aka a rainforest “honey bear,” voiced by Miranda), who spends his days playing music to the crowds in a lively square with his beloved owner Andrés (Buena Vista Social Club’s Juan de Marcos). Though they may not speak the same language, Vivo and Andrés are the perfect duo through their common love of music. But when tragedy strikes shortly after Andrés receives a letter from the famous Marta Sandoval (three-time Grammy-winning Latin pop legend Gloria Estefan), inviting her old partner to her farewell concert with the hope of reconnecting, it’s up to Vivo to deliver a message that Andrés never could: A love letter to Marta, written long ago, in the form of a song. Yet in order to get to Marta, who lives a world apart, Vivo will need the help of Gabi (newcomer Ynairaly Simo) – an energetic tween who bounces to the beat of her own offbeat drum to fulfill his owner’s wishes.

Also featuring the voices of Zoe Saldaña (Guardians of the Galaxy) as Gabi’s mother, Rosa; Michael Rooker as a villainous Everglades python, Lutador; Brian Tyree Henry and Nicole Byer as a pair of star-crossed spoonbills; and Katie Lowes, Olivia Trujillo, and Lidya Jewett as a trio of well-meaning but overzealous scout troops, VIVO is an exhilarating story about gathering your courage, finding family in unlikely friends, and the belief that music can open you to new worlds.

The film is directed by Oscar nominee Kirk DeMicco (The Croods), co-directed by Brandon Jeffords (Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2), written by Quiara Alegria Hudes (In the Heights), produced by Lisa Stewart (Monsters vs. Aliens), Michelle Wong (Hotel Transylvania 2) and Oscar winner Rich Moore (Zootopia), with visual consultation by Oscar winning cinematographer Roger Deakins (Blade Runner 2049). Serving as the film’s composer and executive music producer is Tony and Grammy award-winner Alex Lacamoire (The Greatest Showman), and the film is executive produced by Miranda, Golden Globe winner Laurence Mark (Dreamgirls), and Louis Koo Tin Lok (The Mitchells vs. The Machines).
