Sadly Over-hyped

Dreadfully Boring

it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

The film opens with a written statement claiming this is real hand held footage, so it is not that good. The print is small, they really didn't want anyone to read it. A group goes to Peru to look for animals. We have the classic "ground cam" running and screaming, the classical tent scene "what is that?" as well as the camera man whispering to the camera with me catching about every third word. Add a rubber head dinosaur, and a guy who acts like Steve Irwin, and you have a fairly bad film.One of the worst hand held camera films. Recommend Jill St. John in 1960 "Lost World" instead.No sex or nudity. Didn't catch much in swearing.

We need to know, this film is a Series B. For a B Movie with a low budget its a great movie. Have a nice history, a lot of suspense, a acting is acceptable, and have some good visual and audio effects. Overall its enjoyable and for people that love movies like Blair witch, clover field, rec , its similar. For a B movie its a 9 or 10. The camera Angles, focus, the lighting, its very good, causes some ansious and makes the experience more real to the spectator. ITs not a Jurassic Park movie, but the review of 3/4 are very poor. The Films have a many parts of action, some little humor, maybe we will see a second movie. Cheers

I hate it when a movie has some qualities that are overshadowed by such awfulness that it totally destroys the film., For me, seeing the characters, most of which seem to know which end of the camera is the important bit seemed to offer promise. But seeing the directors take on what makes a film is both disgusting, and ludicrously bad film making. For instance, every time the camera sets down, it is focused on the female leads breast, crotch, or ass, and remains there while the dialogue plays out.,, or it sits there for some time while in no way advancing the story. Its like it was calculated what shot would appeal to juvenile prurient interest, and tries to exploit it. Then the directors involvement as an actor, talk about heavy handed, there are many, many shots of the cameraman, focusing in for a nattering boring close up that is exactly perfectly focused, no matter how terrified the cameraman is supposed to be. Why are only those shots in perfect focus you might ask. I suspect its due to lack of knowledge of his craft, ego, and a lot of poor taste. The characters that had the potential of more interest, Tim who seemed to overact every time he had his glasses on, which made a character more like a cartoon; but when he took the glasses off he was someone else. Then there was the alpha male, who specialized in predator, and primate behaviour studies, never really did anything very interesting at all. Then there is the special effect dinosaurs, looked poorly crafted, shown in very bad light, blurred by motion, and only visible for a second, or two. From lighting, to camera angles, to acting, to plot, to writing, to acting, to directing, there was such unevenness that the most I could have given the film is a three. However the 1/10 I gave it still stands, as it was such a waste of time from out of my life.

Yet another home video style movie. The acting is just awful. Had to wait an hour to actually see a dinosaur and even then it was just a nose. Was the most boring crap movie I have ever seen. An hour and forty five minutes of my life I won't get back. The bloke behind the camera was irritating. The film just dragged on and on and on. There was no adventure in this movie. I wish I never bought it. Big mistake big huge. My advice don't bother watching this pile of crap. You're better off Tuning over to syfy channel. Do I actually need to continue with my thoughts on This awful film. It looked so promising and the heading made the film look brilliant but It was totally the opposite. Very disappointed
