I have a hard time finding Netflix original movies that I enjoy. They either have a pacing or structure problem that makes them basically unwatchable for me.
I watched The Adam Project hoping that wouldn't be true and scored big. Disclosure, I like Ryan Reynolds' brand of humor, and it was quite evident here.
It's entertaining from start to finish, has all the love stories (father-son, romantic, loving one's self), fighting, explosions, time travel worldbuilding that didn't make me mad, and ***SPOILER*** (sort of but not really) a happy ending that included some very nice wind down/wrap up with the characters.
Was it epic? Deeply moving? Nah. But it was absolutely entertaining, warm, funny, and good enough I watched it twice. (Hence my 10 rating; 10s are movies I re-watch). It's exactly the kind of movie I wish Netflix would make more of.
