What to Know

Critics Consensus

You've seen Ryan Reynolds do this sort of thing before, but The Adam Project offers slickly entertaining -- and occasionally even moving -- sci-fi action.

Amy Nicholson FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) There's nothing as good as Back to the Future, but I think Levy finds the heart to this picture. It really works. Mar 30, 2022 Full Review Liz Shannon Miller Consequence There are far worse ways to spend 106 minutes of your life, but The Adam Project seems likely to fade from the memories of Netflix viewers relatively quickly -- meaning it's pretty in line with most of the Netflix original films that have come before it. Mar 19, 2022 Full Review Dwight Brown National Newspaper Publishers Association Possibilities for The Adam Project loomed far larger than what’s on screen. And what’s on screen is never a credit to the sci-fi genre. Rated: 2/4 Mar 16, 2022 Full Review Brittany Patrice Witherspoon Pop Culture Reviews Shawn Levy’s straight-to-Netflix sci-fi feature is a heartfelt journey for the whole family. Rated: 3/5 Jul 22, 2024 Full Review Lee Zumpe Tampa Bay Newspapers “The Adam Project” latches onto viewers and takes them on an exhilarating joyride. Oct 31, 2023 Full Review Serena Seghedoni Loud and Clear Reviews The Adam Project is not a perfect film, but it’s exactly the kind of film we need right now: a highly enjoyable adventure with the right dose of nostalgia and plenty of heart. Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 1, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Stephen F The movie had a good balance of sci-fi and real life relationships. Some good writing and very fast paced. Kid actor has a great future. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/24/22 Full Review zeke nightt very send story would have been okay for TV but to pay to watch it maybe at a discount price main actors were good main actor same old story with him just going to playing the same character over and over again get old rest of the cast was nice Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/16/22 Full Review Anthony E I will never get used to seeing that Netflix opening on the big screen. I came for the cast and I had so much much fun. Mark and Jennifer make great parents! Walker Scobell is a breakout star! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/13/22 Full Review Kelly K Awesome all-around! Great story line with moments of laughter and genuine, heartfelt emotion. Perfect movie for middle school aged children and up. Ryan Reynolds is stellar, as usual! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/12/22 Full Review Pat Best movie I’ve seen in long time!!! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/11/22 Full Review David R Ryan Reynolds being Ryan Reynolds, Walker Scobell was good though. Maybe this is why these kind of movies aren't very good, the actors don't seen to be able to act as different characters but I guess that's why they get hired in the first place 🤔 Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/14/24 Full Review Read all reviews
