Jurassic Suburbia Delivers Amblin-Style Thrills

TL;DR Summary
David Robert Mitchell’s 'The End of Oak Street' is a lean, crowd-pleasing Amblin homage in which a suburban family is blasted back 250 million years by dinosaurs; with brisk 99-minute pacing, witty performances by Ewan McGregor and Anne Hathaway, and a playful score by Michael Giacchino, the film combines heart, humor, and thrilling setpieces to deliver the summer’s biggest surprise.
