Best Part Is the Dialogue

Warning: Spoilers
I hold great nostalgic affection for this film. Yes, it is no "King Kong" regarding its special effects and story, but the film's real strength is in the characters' clever bantering throughout. Some of the banter is not PC (calling women "dames", cracks about marriage, much smoking as if a cigarette company bankrolled the film) but it's still great fun. The dinosaurs don't come off well in ways more than movement. They look like cute toys. Possible SPOILER*** here. To all wondering about the missing scene with Sid Melton, it is intact in the DVD version with Cesar Romero and Hugh Beaumont sharing the cover with two battling triceratops in the background. The cover is also green. This is a great film to watch on a lazy weekend afternoon especially if the weather is bad.
