Sergio Burstein Los Angeles Times Sep 9, 2026
The film fully functions as an entertainment product that, yes, has several implausible moments, but whose dinosaurs (created with an unusually effective mix of CGI and practical effects) look fabulous. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

It’s been a long time since dinosaur films have felt this frightening or tense. Go to Full Review
Adam Nayman The Ringer Aug 25, 2026
On one level, The End of Oak Street is nothing more -- or less -- than a swift, satisfying exercise in fight-or-flight suspense entertainment. It’s an escapist adventure with enjoyably ropy special effects and a nasty visceral kick. Go to Full Review
