I picked this movie up at a flea market for $1. Overpaid for it. I should have looked close and noticed it was made by the Sci Fi Channel. That's a definite tip that it stinks. The only reason I gave it two stars is because one of those stars is for Amy Sloan, the one and only high point in the movie. I don't demand that movies be totally realistic. I'm not one of those who got upset because the space ships in Star Wars go "Woosh" in a vacuum. Don't care. But bullet proof pterodactyls that tear people completely in half with one swoop? Are you serious? Add a bunch of soldiers who practice the discipline and tactical skills of cub scouts.
... View MoreI don't think I have laughed so much as I did seeing this movie! This one should have a warning sign saying: Warning! what you are about to see contains: Awful acting! Awful Special Effects! Is probably the worst movie ever made!The acting couldn't be worse! I cannot imagine how anyone could agree to play in a movie like this. The special effects in this movie is by far the most awful I have ever seen! The script is the only thing that isn't completely worthless in this film. If they had a bigger budget, better actors and better special effects this movie could actually have been good.If you feel like having a really funny night, watch this useless piece of dinosaur's p.ss, otherwise stay away. Though, if you have a weak stomach you shouldn't watch this movie since it contains some gore.-3/10 on the serious scale 10/10 on the funny scale
... View MoreAnother Sci-Fi channel story about a bunch of hungry prehistoric creatures coming to life for whatever reason, and seeking human victims. Apparently, these pterodactyls have seen other Sci-Fi channel movies on the cable in their mountain nest, and know that most humans are stupid and therefore easy prey. And the ancient birdies are right, these characters either just stand around and gawk at attacking monsters or they're too busy doing something evil to notice the incoming attacks.We've got all the shrieking teen stereotypes. It makes sense for the grad student and her science-freak boyfriend/prof to be on safari at the border of a hostile nation, but the apathetic freshmen? They just serve as comic fodder as well as pterodactyl food. I love how one ends up in the pterodactyl nest and punches the baby creatures, while a soldier next to her poses for the little guys to peck him to pieces. Oh, the soldiers are there to find a terrorist (there always seems to be a terrorist around when lethal creatures are loose).The special effects are usually OK, but there's a couple of scenes where they're laughably fake. I love when somebody fires a rocket at these things, with the predictable video-game result. It's obvious who's gonna get killed by the grinning monsters. A fun and really, really stupid movie.
... View MoreThis movie is crap, even the soldiers in the movie, don't look or even act like soldiers, they just extras wearing military uniforms. Interesting why in these sort of movies, early on, they are all wearing their army helmets, yet later in the movie, none are wearing their helmets despite under combat conditions. There is one soldier that seems unable to keep the smile off his face, like been in the movie is one funny joke, which it is.Then there is the hot babe, who is simple in the movie because she is hot and ends up, a victim like in all these sort of movies.The special effects are not too bad.This movie was made to give a group of b-grade actors something to do.
