A prehistoric flick not worth uncovering

Generally I have an immense dislike for The Asylum's movies, but some are watchable so I do keep watching as there is something about their awfulness that is kind of compelling. There is much worse from The Asylum than Age of Dinosaurs and it is certainly better than SyFy's Jurassic Attack aka Rise of the Dinosaurs, but that isn't saying much to praise it. The best asset is the acting, not great but not that bad for The Asylum. Treat Williams and Ronny Cox look very at ease in their roles and are solid. There are a few non-entities in some of the bitty roles but overall the acting could have been worse. The music score also wasn't so bad, it does move things forward a little, doesn't distract and I can still remember parts, again it's improved from past efforts. I cannot say the same for the rest of Age of Dinosaurs(what an inane title) though. It is a very cheap movie visually, the editing is as choppy as you'd expect from The Asylum with scenes not fitting seamlessly together, you'll also have a field day spotting continuity errors. Even worse are the special effects for the dinosaurs, they move so awkwardly and they are designed in a way that makes them look like a failed high school project from 25-30 years ago. The dialogue has layers of cheese and sounds like the actors were having difficulty uttering it with any natural feeling. A lot of the lines are clichéd and any banter has a tendency to go overboard. The story reads of a dumbed down parody of both Jurassic Park and King Kong, but with none of the charm or thrills. Instead it is utter stupidity and predictable storytelling, with cartoon-ish, unimaginative attacks and tedious pacing. It is also very thin from a structural point of view, there isn't enough to sustain the length and make it up there is a lot of pointless filler that only succeeds in bogging the movie down. The characters are as clichéd as the writing, they are also very annoying and as well as having no development are made to do things that a lot of people would deem embarrassing. The dinosaurs also have no personality whatsoever and judging from people's reactions to them they don't seem to come across as much of a threat. On the whole, I've seen worse but if you are looking for a good or entertaining dino movie you are best leaving Age of Dinosaurs uncovered. 3/10 Bethany Cox

Another sad attempt to create a prehistoric monster movie

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.

cheap CGI

Geneti-Sharp's experiments to create live dinosaurs fail and the company goes under. Wheelchair-bound entrepeneur Justin (Ronny Cox) uses the technology to regenerate. In a public presentation, he walks again and reveals his newly created dinosaurs. Gabe Jacobs (Treat Williams) and daughter Jade (Jillian Rose Reed) are in the audience as the dinosaurs break out of their glass prison. They bring havoc to modern L.A.

This is very cheap CGI on the level of bad TV movies. The plot is simply an excuse to have CGI in a modern city. Everything looks cheap. At least, they have a few professional actors but this can't be saved. This is Sharknado without the self-aware camp.
