Coming off the heels of semi-positively reviewed Gladiator II, I was particularly curious what Ridley Scott would do next and who would be involved. Then he signed on buzzy (and extremely tall) Hollywood star Jacob Elordi for his new apocalyptic movie The Dog Stars and my curiosity piqued. Unfortunately, it’s starting to sound like bad news for The Dog Stars, but perhaps less bad for Elordi himself? Let’s take a look.
The Dog Stars is coming from Disney, and wasn’t being screened particularly widely, so most of us at CinemaBlend haven’t seen the movie yet. A few critics have though, and reviews are decidedly mixed to outright unenthusiastic. It’s currently running at a paltry 38% on Rotten Tomatoes, but again, a lot of us haven’t had the chance to see the movie yet. At the time of this writing, there are fewer than 100 reviews.
