It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
OK, this review is based on the 25 minutes of pure boredom that I suffered through when I sat down to watch "Jurassic Prey", and I just had to give up after that, because I had completely lost the will to witness a single minute more of the nonsense that was "Jurassic Prey".First of all, there was nothing that even remotely resembled a cohesive storyline. The movie is about a group of people who rob a bank, albeit you don't see this incident at all, as I guess the budget didn't allow for that. But wait, then there is a most horribly fake dinosaur stalking around in the area as well. A dinosaur? It just makes no sense what so ever.The acting in "Jurassic Prey" was as to be expected from a movie such as this. And actually within the first 5 minutes of the movie, it is already established what kind of acting experience you will be in for. Just watch the scene with the two men wearing shades and the naked guy in the theater, enough said. The acting was wooden and questionable at best.Then lets move on to the dinosaur. Correction, guy in an awfully fake and laughable rubber bodysuit. That dinosaur was so poorly made and so fake that even a blind man would go "for real?" It was so poor that it actually had me laughing hard every time I saw it. And it made absolutely no sense whatsoever that a dinosaur was walking around and just randomly eating people as it sneaked up on them. Yeah, a dinosaur skilled in stealth, it was just that epic! And to add insult to injury, then the scenes where the dinosaur tears into and eats people was just as fake as the dinosaur suit itself. Actually it is so poor that it is worth to see.And did no one edit this movie or even have half a mind to think that if you have guys with shades, then let's at least put in an effort to have the film crew not be reflected in the lenses of the shades? It was just such an amateurish mistake to make. And it happened more than once during the 25 minutes I managed to suffer through.It is rare that I give up on a movie, but it does happen every now and then when I sit down to watch a movie which is actually unbearable to watch. And "Jurassic Prey" was one such movie. And I can with all honesty say that I am not even going to bother with giving this movie a second chance. I have seen enough in the first 25 minutes to last me a lifetime."Jurassic Prey" scores a bottom-scraping one out of ten stars rating.
I have very few positive things to say about "Jurassic Prey". Like most dinosaur flicks from the last few years, it's neither a good movie nor a so-bad-it's-good movie. It probably isn't one of the absolute worst movies I've ever seen, but I'm fairly sure it is somewhere in the "bottom 100" I have watched. It is one of the worst of the prehistoric genre and should be avoided or watched with extremely minimal expectations and some hard liquor.The cast is generally awful in uninteresting ways; there are in fact ways B-movies can save a poor script with colorful characters and/ or colorful character actors, and this movie doesn't attempt to give us anyone to really care or root for, let alone laugh at. The visual effects are hilariously bad, however I cannot condemn them to the degree some reviewers have. Yes, the puppetry and stop-motion is not commendable, but I still prefer it over most of the cheap CGI in low budget dino-flicks the last few years. In fact I was bothered far more by other effects, such as the bad digital flames, blood, and gun flares among other poorly-executed shots.If there were at least a few more redeeming elements (better gore, characters, and script for starters), I'd elevate my rating to a "3" or "4"; as it is, a "2" feels fairly generous.
Like one of the other reviewers I have always been a fan of low budget B movies. I have always thought and I think many would agree that Plan 9 from outer space was the worst movie ever made, even with the huge cult following it has, at least the burning paper plate used for the crashing flying saucer has some humorous value. This movie has no value at all. the acting is high schoolish at best, the plot could have been written by a 12 year old, and possibly was. Limited to almost nothing that can be considered special affects, and a few shots that look like rubberized sock puppets. The budget for this movie was probably well under $1000, and most of it probably spent on lunch for the cast and crew. Wait for Mystery science theater 3000 to come back to see this one, it will probably be one of their first picks.
What director in his right mind would make a film like this?. I was born in the 90's and even the creature features of the 70's were far better than this. Why is it that the quality of B-movies are degrading?. I would like to think of this as a joke played by the director on the audience. All I can say is they are trying to capitalize on the success of Jurassic Park. Thinking, everyone with the word 'Jurassic' in the title would watch it. Do not encourage them. The T-rex is basically a rubber doll. The studio who made this film should be fined. Losing faith in B-movies. Even The Asylum have gotten better!.
