Another sad attempt to create a prehistoric monster movie
17 September 2013
Warning: Spoilers
How many attempts have been made to make a prehistoric monster in the modern day movies have their been? None of them have even come close to the Jurassic Park series, including this movie.

SPOILER BEGINS

This 'story' is about several species of prehistoric dinosaur being recreated through genetic engineering. They are first shown to the world in LA.

Obviously they all manage to escape their cages and reek havoc in the city.

It is up to Gabe Jacobs (Treat Williams) and his daughter Jade (Jillian Rose Reed) to save the city while trying to save themselves of course.

That's all you need to know really.

SPOILER ENDS

The screenplay written by Hank Woon Jr was atrocious, the direction by Joseph J Lawson was to say the least dismal and the special effects were reminiscent of Ray Harryhausen. Ray I feel provided us with much better and realistic effects.

The only redeeming factor of this movie is that it included both Treat Williams and Jillian Rose Reed who put in good performances with the terrible script they had to play with.

All in all this movie will not go down in the annals of movie history as a classic, more likely in the category of movie which should never have been made.
