Am I Missing Something?

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

Which is hard to believe of its director. However, if your familiar with Conan Doyles Lost World and Michael Crichtons Congo then you will have to be happy with the fact that its a very good enthusiastic rehash. Except that the unrestrained use of hand-held camera work is so annoying. Still this is the only credible Dinosaur movie since Jurassic Park 1 so if - like me - you feel the dearth it is definitely worth your time. In fact I hope they make a sequel (with normal camera work). Richard Dillane is a more credible Indian Jones than Harrison Ford and the location Scenery is excellent. Why IMDb discriminates against concise reviews is beyond me, there's surely enough waffle in the world already

If you expected a Jurassic Park 4, just don't. It was an entertaining movie for those of us who enjoy dinosaurs. Some of the footage is okay, the open ending was a little disappointing but leaves room for the sequel that i'm hoping for. Okay, okay, how the kid in the movie has several go-pro cameras that would cost him at least a grand; they did make the movie. When attached to the dinosaur going through the water it was done well, one of my favorite parts in the movie. But for a low budget film, you should never expect great things, so i'd say it wasn't terrible, that's for sure.

I imagine there are some who may like this movie however I found it to be uninteresting. It reminds me of Cloverfield and the Blair Witch Project and the only thing impressive was the computer generated images. In my opinion the acting was mediocre to good (by most of the cast) but I felt it lacking in many aspects. It had scenes that I felt took away rather than added to the 'suspense' factor. I thought this production was disappointing for the most part. I guess I was expecting more due to the catchy title. Luckily I got it from Red Box and didn't spend too much on it. I'd do the same to preview it before buying it just to see if I would want to invest the money.

This movie is bad. If you don't mind the whole "home footage" style of cinematography then you might like a little more then me, but that won't change the fact that the plot is terrible and the characters are horribly written. (They seem almost inhumanly dispassionate about the tragedy that befalls other members of their party.)The only plus is that the CG is not too bad. So kudos to the people in charge of that... but that's about the only good thing I can think to say about the film.I could go into further detail, but really, I'm trying to save you time here. So just trust me. It's not worth it. I watched this for free while we had some downtime at work and I still want my 83 minutes back. Save yourself!
