The End Of Oak Street’s Rotten Tomatoes Review Score Is In
Critic Fred Topel says the film’s dinosaur attacks and suburban setting lean heavily on Jurassic Park and World, muting its inventive moments.
- Warner Bros. releases the dinosaur thriller "The End of Oak Street" in theaters this Thursday, Aug 13, starring Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor as the Platts, a 1982 suburban family transported to a prehistoric world.
- Writer-Director David Robert Mitchell crafts an "Amblin-style" blockbuster set in 1982, blending earnest family drama with CGI dinosaur chaos to evoke a "summer thrill ride" spirit. Running 99 minutes, the film marks his return to mainstream filmmaking.
- Hathaway and McGregor portray parents navigating marital friction while protecting teenagers Audrey and Brian from prehistoric beasts. Critics compare the film's derivative nature to the "Jurassic" franchise, suggesting it feels like the 28th entry.
- Reviews describe the film as "preposterous" but "unrespectable fun" with a "distinctive cheeseball flavor." The Motion Picture Association rated it PG-13 for violent content, while critics assigned it a 6/10 score.
- Unlike previous arthouse efforts like "It Follows," Mitchell's project represents a "blatant piece of corporate cinematic piggybacking" within the "last-gasp-of-summer" genre, known for trashy, obvious plotting.
