David Robert Mitchell's latest film, The End Of Oak Street, attempts to capture the magic of Steven Spielberg's Jurassic Park but fails to deliver the same level of intensity and realism.
# The End Of Oak Street's PG-13 Problem David Robert Mitchell's The End Of Oak Street is the latest film to try and recapture the magic of Steven Spielberg's Jurassic Park. However, in its attempt to achieve a PG-13 rating, the film falls short of delivering the same level of intensity and realism that made Jurassic Park a classic. ## A Desperate Attempt to Be Like Jurassic Park The End Of Oak Street tries too hard to be like Jurassic Park, but it gets one crucial thing wrong: the violence. The film is desperate to be the new Jurassic Park, but it fails to deliver the same level of realism and intensity that made the original film so thrilling. ## The Problem with PG-13 Violence The PG-13 rating allows for some violence, but it must be infrequent and not too realistic. The End Of Oak Street's dinosaur action scenes are frequent, but they rarely involve any blood or lingering details. This makes the film feel like it's trying to be gory, but is instead toned down to fit the PG-13 rating. ## A Missed Opportunity The End Of Oak Street has the potential to be a memorable experience, but it fails to deliver. The film's reliance on blocking and quick cuts to avoid showing too much violence makes it feel like it's trying too hard to be PG-13. This results in a film that feels like it's missing something, like a better version of itself that's just out of reach. ## A Comparison to Jurassic Park The End Of Oak Street is in cinemas now, but it's hard to shake the feeling that it's not as good as it could be. The film's failure to deliver the same level of intensity and realism as Jurassic Park makes it feel like a missed opportunity. With a little more effort and a willingness to push the boundaries of what's acceptable in a PG-13 film, The End Of Oak Street could have been something truly special. ## Conclusion The End Of Oak Street is a film that tries too hard to be like Jurassic Park, but fails to deliver the same level of intensity and realism. With its reliance on blocking and quick cuts to avoid showing too much violence, the film feels like it's missing something. While it's not a terrible film, it's hard to shake the feeling that it's not as good as it could be.
