Netflix has joined forces with Take-Two Interactive on the BioShock movie, with plans to develop “a potential cinematic universe” based around the popular video game franchise.ĭeadline recaps, “Set across multiple dystopian and visionary landscapes gone wrong, the BioShock video game series has blended sci-fi and horror to pose unique existential and societal questions reshaping how game stories are told-all amidst pulse-pounding action gameplay that rewards sharp shooting, clever planning and lethal improvisation.

Sure, I’ll recommend it, as now I view movies as essentially two episodes of a show put together, but these Netflix originals occupy a strange space these days.įollow me on Twitter, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram. Who knows, maybe I’m discounting the longevity of The Adam Project, but I kind of doubt it. It feels like Netflix works for these movies more than these movie work for Netflix, and I keep seeing this time and time again with their originals. The Adam Project, with its 68% Rotten Tomatoes score and 77% audience score, feels like a movie that 40 million people will watch but no one will ever talk about again, until maybe The Adam Project 2 comes out, greenlit after so many viewers for the first. It’s this situation that Netflix keeps getting into where they claim that in terms of total eyeballs, movies like The Adam Project and Red Notice that stay on top of its charts are getting Marvel movie-sized audiences, and yet feel like they lack the cultural impact or staying power of theatrical blockbusters. In short, The Adam Project is a worthy diversion for a weekday evening, but probably far from a genre classic.
