Adam the First

Adam (Oakes Fegley) has been raised in the woods by his not-father James (David Duchovny). They are tracked down and raided by bounty hunters. James and his girlfriend are killed. Before dying, James gives Adam his real father's name and three addresses. Adam sets out to find him.

I don't like Adam and that's as simple as that. I stop caring about him, his quest, and his happily ever after. He is one of those annoying teenage boys who don't think beyond his two feet. The actor is also doing the hesitation while being boldly secure at other times. I really got annoyed with the first Jacob Watterson. If Jacob is a real criminal, he would have told the kid to f off. I couldn't take his patience with the kid. I understand the performance and the writing. I just don't like it.

It started with promise and Duchovny was great. But after the first 20mins and the setup it just got worse and worse, scene by scene.

Other than Duchovny there wasn't much good acting, the dialogue and the reaction from Adam was bizarre and just didn't make much sense. Very poor writing and directing.

It really did seem like the writter/director had a begging for a film and that was it, they just winged it from there on.

You really just start wishing the film will end. Then to make things worse it breaks down into a vomit inducing musical number for the final scene.

There is really no need to waste time watching this.

Lush cinematography and a great script make for an excellent movie. The characters are believable and seem real. The film was made in Mississippi and showcases much of the natural beauty that the state offers. The wardrobe is interesting and fits the script well. The characters' hair and makeup are expertly done.

I have ADHD and this movie was so well made that it kept my attention focused the entire time. The storyline is interesting and keeps you wondering what is going to happen next. The movie is full of great actors such as David Duchovny, Oakes Fegley, Larry Pine, Kernesha Steele and many more.

I just watched this movie Adam the first 2024 and expected so much more than what I saw.

It was extremely boring to watch this poor boy Adam go through his journey to find his father and ending up finding his mother.

The movie ends with a very shallow ending leading the viewers hanging.

N then t ends at 7 minutes and the Epilogue is after the credits and should be before the credits, cuz viewers don't watch credits n by putting the Epilogue after the credits no one will wait or will ever see them.

It seems like all 2024 movies are retro but if ur gonna do retro then do it right not like this very sad version.

All movies have a happy ending and you messed it up for sure!

Maybe you need to hire me cuz I'm a freelance screenwriter artist n work for GOFOBO n IMDB.

Think about it u need me cuz you're failing at this point!

Good luck n I'm deleting this video now...not worth the gigabits on my computer.

I went and saw Adam The First in a film. I had never heard about this movie before, but my local theater was showing it, and nothing else that was playing seemed that interesting. I had a free night, and I thought I would give it a chance, and I'm really glad I did. The film follows Adam, who was raised in the woods by a pair of survivalists who aren't his biological parents. All he knows about his parents is that his father abandoned him after his mother died when he was a baby. However, when things happen that are outside of Adam's control, Adam finds himself on a quest to find his real father. His only clue is a list of three different men who all have the same name. I won't give anything else away because I feel like this movie is one of those films that are better to go in, not knowing too much about what happens. What I will say is that this film felt like a grounded adventure film in the same vein as Huckleberry Finn. The characters were all interesting, and for the most part, their actions were all logical. The kid who played Adam did a great job, and all the other actors played their parts well, even if they aren't super well known. The exception is David Duchovny. I'm not super familiar with him, but he was good at this. All in all, Adam the First was different from a lot of modern movies, but in a good way, and the ending left me satisfied. So, if you are looking for a movie that will make you think and that is emotionally satisfying, give this one a watch.
