“65” is not a bad movie. There, I said it. Controversial? Maybe. But I stand by it. And since it’s leaving Netflix on January 7, 2025, I feel compelled to shed some light on this underrated sci-fi thriller (even though my opinion might be unpopular).
Now, I understand where most of the criticism comes from. “65” isn’t some grand sci-fi epic that will leave you speechless, nor does it really stand out in the genre. In fact, it’s only got 36% on Rotten Tomatoes (the audience score is slightly kinder at 64%). But I watched it for the first time on Netflix the other day out of curiosity and actually had a good time. I went in blind, which meant avoiding the reviews and the trailer so there were no preconceived notions at play.
