Adam Primeiro

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.

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.

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.

The film start well, although it is not an highly original plot. 14 year old Boy lives with his adopted parents, they get killed but before his adoptive father pass away he is given 3 names and three addresses of men that could be his biological father. Therefore the boy goes on a trek to find his real father and to find out why was he given away.

The acting was good from all involved. Oakes Fegley, who plays our main character Adam has been acting for a while now and he always deliver strong performances. My biggest issue with the film is purely on the writing side of things. Adam is never given any moment that shows he is capable of grief. At the start of the film we see that both his adoptive parents are murdered in front of his eyes yet they never give Adam any real moment where he shows any grief, this makes it look like he is moving on from those death very fast and it is a bit unrealistic. Same go for later in the film when another pivotal moment whom you would expect Adam to show some sort of emotional turmoil but the writing makes it look like Adam just do not feel anything and moves on swiftly from tragedies. It is just odd. At least at the very end of the film we finally get to see him shows some emotion at the reveal of his birth parents and Oakes Fegley delivers. Again this is not Oakes Fegley fault but the writing for not giving Adam a few seconds where we get a glimpses of his current state of mind following some rather tragic stuff happening to him. The big payoff at the end when we find out the truth is also rushed and again the fact that it is rushed coupled with the fact that the writers just did not give Adam enough real character moments throughout the film, makes that ending a little underwhelming when we should be really moved by it. Aside from that the boy journey had real potential. The three different beats of the film as Adam check out his three potential father were interesting but not really used to their full potentials. So much more could have been done. I did not dislike the film but I really wanted to feel more. It really lacked any emotional punch except maybe from the very final scene. This film is deserving of a 5 out of 5. Not bad, not great. Still worth a watch on a Sunday afternoon but do not expect to be swiped out of your feet emotionally by it.
