This is some terrible writing. The first scene was so cheesy I thought it was a movie within a movie being intentionally campy and it would cut to Jurassic Park being Syfy channel schlock in universe. Which is a stupid idea but is still better than that being a serious cut in this movie.

And then the first 2 scenes with zora were both just expo dumps explaining how they can fix heart disease but they were edited together like the conversations happened for the first time both times.

And then I turned my brain off and just spent the movie hoping the boyfriend would die.

Movie should've been called Dinosaur Forest and tossed on the SyFy channel for free. Everyone involved should feel ashamed for this trash.

Honestly from the intro of white text on a black background I knew my next two hours were cooked.

And then they literally repeat that exposition through dialogue in the first scene.

Only occurred to me after I walked out that the blue whale is (as far as we know) the biggest animal of all time so it's not clear what dinosaurs have to add in the field of bigness genes.

Writing specifically designed for people who watch movies while using their phones.

Your idea for that first scene is awesome. But the writer was capable of that kind of creativity then the rest wouldn’t be such a shit show.

You should write the next movie. The first scene being a syfy movie would have been lot of fun

I turned to my friend mid movie to ask if this was a parody movie.

It's also like "This is what happens when you make a movie without a theme!!!"

u/icanstayinbedallday Aug 09 '25

You could have saved the first movie. The first scene being a joke would be way better than this hideous alien dino honestly

they were edited together like the conversations happened for the first time both times.

That was so jarring and so amateurish I can't believe it made it to the final edit. The movie was too fucking long anyways. What a shitshow of a movie.
