The End of Oak Street has had a wild history thus far, and when you see it all laid out, it gets even weirder.<\/p>\n
The End of Oak Street<\/p>\n
Rotten Tomatoes<\/p>\n
What a ride. This is going to turn out to be a very interesting experiment in original features, not some potential breakout horror film (like It Follows, incidentally), but needing to sell audiences on a very odd concept. The idea is that big stars like Hathaway (she\u2019s had quite the year) and McGregor will draw audiences in. Competition is going to be tough, however. We have long-tail weeks for the enormously earning Spider-Man: Brand New Day and The Odyssey, and this weekend also marks the release of PAW Patrol: The Dino Movie. If you don\u2019t think that\u2019s going to be big, you don\u2019t have a four-year-old. It seems like The End of Oak Street has the potential to get lost in the shuffle.<\/p>\n
Most critics really, really believe you should show up for it, however. Here\u2019s a sampling of what some are saying about the unique project:<\/p>\n
I understand what they mean when they say it\u2019s what big studios should be doing right now, as it\u2019s the antithesis of the enormous blockbuster comic book and \u201880s toy adaptations we usually see. But there is a reason we don\u2019t see all that many creative projects like this, because they can be a tough sell. Hopefully The End of Oak Street manages to break through to audiences this coming weekend.<\/p>\n
