Adam Driver has had an idiosyncratic career. He is simultaneously a beloved independent film actor who has also taken on controversial mainstream roles. Perhaps his most ire-inspiring role was playing Kylo Ren in the newer Star Wars movie, whose last installment, Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker, dismayed many fans. At the same time, however, Driver is a scene-stealer in movies like Inside Llewyn Davis and s Ha, which came out before his foray into a galaxy far, far away.

Driver's films have also gained notoriety in meme culture, and this year is no exception. The actor led the ensemble of Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis, a dystopian sci-fi fantasy romp that was met with divisive responses. While some critics appreciated his performance, lines from the film, especially his delivery of "go back to the club." Before Megalopolis, Driver's Marriage Story character was among his most-memed works outside of Star Wars, as edits featured his face in a key argument scene. Some of Driver's works have been disliked by critics as well, including a project that is leaving Netflix soon.

Why You Should Watch 65 Before It Leaves Netflix

It Is One Of Driver's Many Eclectic Roles

65 is far from a perfect film, but it is a fascinating exercise in how to create a mostly-solo monster survival film. As evidenced by their work in Heretic as well, Beck and Woods are skilled at creating intimate horror thrillers that rely on very few characters to tell their story. 65 takes this concept and adds a prehistoric spin on it, making for an interesting watch. It is also a good example of Driver's range and ability to take on wide-ranging roles, making it a worthwhile watch.
