TL;DR Summary
IndieWire’s review of Ridley Scott’s The Dog Stars grades the film a C, calling it a dour, inert post-apocalyptic drama where Jacob Elordi’s restrained performance can’t compensate for a meandering script, underwhelming action, and a romance that lacks chemistry, despite a handful of capable visuals and mood.
