Ryan Reynolds has a new movie coming to Netflix and so far, all the signs point to it being a hit.
The Adam Project is a time travel adventure also starring Mark Ruffalo and Zoe Saldana, and after screenings for critics last night, the first reactions are now online. As you can see below, it looks like we’re in for an emotional, inventive and fun ride, and suffice it to say, this pic will definitely be making some moves on the Netflix Top 10 list when it debuts next month.
For now, though, you can see what the critics are saying below:
Blown away by #TheAdamProject
Whimsical, imaginative, and original Sci-fi with the edge of @VancityReynolds’ razor-sharp sarcasm. Walker Scobell is a tremendous find as younger Ryan. It’s BTTF mixed with Star Wars OG trilogy and the Amblin tone. Amazing, @ShawnLevyDirect! pic.twitter.com/JjvNmu96Rr— Sean O'Connell (@Sean_OConnell) February 10, 2022
The Adam Project is so much FUN! Love the 80s sci-fi feel. Was blown away from start to finish. Walker Scobell is incredible. Ryan Reynolds & Mark Ruffalo are amazing on screen together and wow, I was not expecting to be shedding some tears. This is a MUST WATCH! #TheAdamProject pic.twitter.com/cqSbi7uv7S

A masterpiece on the challenges of fatherhood, grief and the preciousness of time. Thank you @VancityReynolds @ShawnLevyDirect @MarkRuffalo @NetflixFilm #TheAdamProject pic.twitter.com/ELzZHzdyIS

There’s an element to #TheAdamProject I didn’t expect, and it hurt the most.
My dad died when I was 23. I’d give anything to have a conversation with him now, when I had more life under my belt, and could understand us better. @NetflixFilm @ShawnLevyDirect @VancityReynolds

The Adam Project is a sci-fi adventure, comedy, & heartwarming drama all rolled into 1. Walker Scobell is perfect as a young @VancityReynolds. Ryan Reynolds & @MarkRuffalo just made me laugh & cry. Loved it
As Adam would say: Holy sh*t this movie is a must see#TheAdamProject pic.twitter.com/tQAab0u2Hw

#TheAdamProject is a tremendously fun throwback to 80’s sci-fi adventures, with a sneaky emotional element. I did not expect to cry. Ryan Reynolds and Mark Ruffalo are great in a Shaw Levy film that would make Spielberg proud.@ShawnLevyDirect @VancityReynolds @MarkRuffalo pic.twitter.com/ggdKQaNAvC

As part of the 1st audience to see #TheAdamProject, I can say that it's a blast! Pure blockbuster thrills, some beautiful family drama & A TON of fast paced snark. The Levy/Reynolds train continues to chug along, and Walker Scobell is one to keep your eye on.

I’m a sobbing, weepy, ugly-cry mess right now.
I just finished #TheAdamProject.
The moment it was over, I called my parents and told them that I love them.
Thank you @VancityReynolds and @ShawnLevyDirect.
That was absolutely beautiful.
