'The End of Oak Street,' the Anne Hathaway-Ewan McGregor dinosaur thriller that opened Aug. 14, held its 85% 'fresh' critics' score on Rotten Tomatoes' Tomatometer through the Aug. 24 resolution date. The score, based on more than 185 reviews, made it one of the best-reviewed dinosaur-genre films of the century, ranking above every 'Jurassic World' sequel and trailing only the original 1993 'Jurassic Park' among major entries in the genre.

Critics generally praised the film's practical effects and old-school, Amblin-style tone even while noting its plot covered familiar ground. Audience reception ran cooler, with viewers giving the film scores in the 70s-percent range on Rotten Tomatoes' separate Popcornmeter, a typical gap between critics and general audiences for genre films leaning into nostalgia.

The steady critics' score reflects that reviews largely settled in the days immediately following release, with little late-breaking critical reassessment to move the number.

Predict Six's community had put only a 44% chance on the score holding at 85% or higher, underestimating the stability of an already-large review sample.
