Our take on The Adam Project

Shawn Levy's 2022 adventure sends time-travelling fighter pilot Adam Reed crash-landing in 2022, where he reluctantly joins forces with his own twelve-year-old self on a mission to protect the future. It's a family-friendly blend of science-fiction spectacle and quick comedy, using the meeting of two Adams to mine both bickering laughs and unexpected warmth about growing up and grief. The action stays brisk and the tone accessible, aiming squarely at a broad, all-ages crowd. It suits viewers wanting an uncomplicated, emotionally sincere sci-fi ride with plenty of banter. Those craving hard science or intricate time-travel logic should temper expectations; here, heart outranks mechanics.
