this was a movie I was waiting for.
Yes it's all filmed within ONE set, within 1 location, it's always the living room scene.
Great concept and there were a few places I was proud of hte director - intertwining multi generational story lines.
-The last min of the camera angel was nicely done (you'll see what I mean)
-tom hanks and Robin Wright was cute, was there a lot of chemisty, not relaly nor was there enough time.
-great use of CGI for some aging / back to youth tech
-the director tried to pull on the tear strings but heck.. didnt work that well due to scritping
-director a) he directered back to the future, forrest gump, wrote back to the future, Cast away, polar express, what lies beneath, contact (jodi foster), flight (denzel), etc...
-the use of different screens and rectangle focus were great... (you'll see it)
Great successful director and writer.
Where this movie failed was punchining in way way way too much. why did you need dinosaurcs, why do you need the natives, why do you need the black family; i felt he was trying to be Ethic, Diversity and inclusion.
You need to brace yourself with all the freaking time line swapping and jumping. It's mixes up so much which it became too mnuch. The story doesn't ocme alive until 10 mins in so that was a pain.
I enjoyed it; wife hated it.
