stupid movie -- stupid, stupid movie
12 September 2004
What an odd choice for SciFi to want to make this crapfest of a film. What would urge them to want to go-ahead with this project?

Nothing about this movie fits. The SEALS do not move or act at all like real NAVY SEALS(i'm not an expert. But I do know that they don't move like a bunch of spazes when in danger!) I mean tripping over a log? come on. And they went on a mission over water without actual swimming equipment. They went in under the cover of daylight(I found this very humorous). You could have seen them coming from four miles away -- a small black rubber boat, filled with a bunch of guys all wearing black. This is not hard to miss when the sun is shinning. Unless we're are dealing with stupid terrorists, which in this movie's case -- everything is stupid. Even the dinosaurs.

Now on the subject of the dinosaurs. They moved in packs of three. Which probably meant that they could only afford to put three in one shot at a time. The bullet holes disappearing into them as they were shot was funny. Don't think I have seen they since I played DOOM a few years ago.

The movie is riddled with bad acting, no-name faces, and Larenzo Lamas(!) who does not have a magnificent track record with movies, as far as i'm concerned. Though I did love Mike Nelson doing him on MST3K. But that's beside the point. He's just not a good actor in my opinion. Is that relevant here? apparently so, because he does a good job at acting horribly through this. The rest I have not heard of, and most likely will never hear of them again, until another action movie is churned out from SciFi.

What I think of the plot/point of this movie is: running from goofy dinosaurs and shooting at them. There was some sub-plot about the SEALS rescuing some lady, or something like that. The main point like I said was to see guys run from dinosaurs and eventually hide from them in a cave.

In closing...This was bad movie from the beginning to the ending credits.
