The Worst Film Ever

Fresh and Exciting

Absolutely the worst movie.

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

If i were to rate a all the Dinosaur movies, this would come near the top after the Jurassic Park series. This series stayed perfectly with the plots of the actual series. I don't think that i've ever seen a more realistic dinosaur movies. I also found myself relating to most of the characters in the movie. In conclusion, i found this movie awesome and i'd recommend anyone to see it, especially of you're a dinosaur nut like me.If anyone were to ask about how a dinosaur movie could possibly be realistic, then i'd just show tell them to just watch the movie, and then they'd see exactly what i meant. If you're up for a good read, or an excellent movie to watch see this movie 10/10

Simply a superb 4 hour movie. Excellent cast who are truly believable in their roles. The female leads are so remarkably alike I began to think they were really related. The 2 male leads interact well that they are believable as brothers. The sets are tremendous and are very lifelike, even if much is made of the same set time-after-time (the big ramp). The animatronic Dino's could have a greater range as not many interact with the rest of the cast as I would have liked - I seem to recall a similar premise in another film who's name I cannot recall! - which never worked as well as this one does. As I have it on DVD it is I saw it as a film, but there is plenty of opportunities for pausing within the presentation - probably where ad breaks were and episodes ended. The story is one suitable for both children and adults, and will appeal to all ages, although it can appear a little simplistic at times. This reflects the age group the original book as are aimed at.

I only rented Dinotopia because I saw it at my local video store and noticed that Wentworth Miller was on the cover. Of course it looked stupid just from the box cover, but I'm a huge fan of Wentworth so I rented it.There are no words for how lame this movie is. The acting is horrible (yes, surprisingly even Wentworth Miller seemed awkward and spit his lines out WAY too fast). There is a storyline but the poor effects, bad acting, and ridiculous dialog take away any chance this film had of being watchable. Maybe the actors felt so stupid interacting with cheap looking animatronic dinosaurs that they just didn't even try to give any heart to their performance.Seriously, your plane crashes at sea nearly drowning you and killing your father and you don't seem in the least bothered by this? And then, you find yourself on an island where dinosaurs still exist and you only seem mildly surprised? Maybe a kid would enjoy this, but anyone over seven will just laugh.

maybe it's the original book, but this is so stupid. They live in freaking Waterfall City, and they spend all their time looking for sun stones as a source of power. use the damn waterfalls! create electricity!!! The leading actors are also horrible, especially Wentworth Miller as David, he's acting like he's the director's con who got his first chance in front of a camera. Katie Carr is also laconic and amateur, and only Tyron Leitso does a fair job.The special effects are nice and the CGI character of Zipeau (or Zippo?) is quite lovable. The story is a predictable Disney-esquire adventure for kids, very kitsch, very American and very simplistic.But Dinotopia still keeps some level of interest. It's watchable, if you have 4 extra hours and you can sleep. It will get you to slumber-land, that's for sure.
