Katie Walsh Tribune News Service 20h

"The End of Oak Street" (note the double meaning of the title) is Mitchell doing silly Spielberg drag, classic Amblin Entertainment with a big ol' wink and a nudge. Go to Full Review
Richard Whittaker Austin Chronicle 22h
2/5
What’s disappointing here is how soulless and unemotional Mitchell’s film is, and lacking in any real visual panache. Go to Full Review
Kyle Smith Wall Street Journal 23h
The director, David Robert Mitchell, dismisses plausibility and sticks to a refreshingly modest goal: dumb fun. Once it gets going, “Oak Street” makes the audience squirm, scream and laugh for nearly an hour, and I had a great time. Go to Full Review
Blake Howard One Heat Minute 29m
2.5/4
David Robert Mitchell keeps the catastrophe in the corner of the eye, where suburbia has always kept its violence, and lets the audience do the turning. Go to Full Review

Robin Huizenga 21m You could tell where it was computerized and green screen. It wasnt nothing like they advertise pretty much if you watch the trailer you seen the whole movie except for the part where the two dinosaurs were having sex other than that just wasnt all that like the commercial made it out to me. See more Anthony D 22m Of the best summer films of the summer. There were a lot of unsuspecting surprises. See more susan 27m It did take a while to get going but after 20 minutes or so it turns into a fun, nostalgic family movie with a happy ending. See more Brie 50m Great movie better than Jurassic park. Just did not understand the portal. See more Eunice A 1h High-energy film. Was thoroughly enjoyable. See more Pamela P 1h the ending was the best part! See more Read all reviews
