This film has nothing positive to say about it so I will be honest in telling you that if I told you that the plot had been thrown together by a mentally challenged six year old, you'd probably believe me. I challenge anybody to find a worse film than this one. The plot was terrible, the special effects were amateur and unrealistic at best and the acting was also weak. This film is a complete waste of the viewers time, money and energy as it is about as exciting as watching paint dry. Overall this unconvincing, mind-numbingly awful piece of rubbish hold its title as the worst film I have ever seen. Im not just being a 'hater', this film really is that bad.

OK... so obviously this movie is bad... in too many ways to list.HOWEVER, I was using windows media player Version 12, and I set the PLAY SPEED to 2X... Wow! way better! I haven't found the dubbed Japanese version yet, but I bet the dialog would sound super cool. After a bit, I didn't even notice that it was on 2X !!! You can skip to 48:00, for that's where the real laughs begin! I am toying with the idea of opening this in some editor and 'posterizing' it to make it ALL THE WAY into a cartoon, since it already does as far as the special effects.Since I need to use up some space to make this review pass muster, I will say that the bad parts are: The Title: They only go 70 million years back. If they had gone all 100 million years, then at least the dinosaur (files) that chase the cast would have supposedly been alive. The acting, The soundtrack, The editing was .... well, it just felt desperate. Considering what they had to work with, I guess not too bad.The Costumes of the 100 million B.C.-ites were like dread-lock wig cloaks. Perhaps it's supposed to be mammoth fur? Which is weird because mammoths or anything with fur or hair for that matter were not contemporary with the dinosaurs. >.< And the costumes of the female navy personell seemed way sexier than you would expect for the situation... hehehThere's a few good points, Which have little to do with the actual film.The opening scenery shots are nice, but the transition back to the regular film makes it look that much worse. The film crew stayed out of the picture,It's great to see people getting work. Less commuting too, because even some of the 100 - er 70 million years ago scenes were shot in Los Angeles parks.So in the end credits, there's a disclaimer that says: "No animals were harmed in the production of this screenplay." Don't worry people, I never thought for a second that any actual animals were used. But I am forced to ask... Does mistreating the digital file of an animal, even an extinct one, constitute harm? Not to mention giving CGI Dinosaurs a bad name?So, in a nutshell: 1.5 to 2X speed, Posterize, dubbed Japanese version (if it exists). Aloha!

...and the unintentional comedy.I watched 100 Million BC because I had nothing better to do so I thought I could give this dinosaur film a try, and the story seemed fairly intriguing, although unoriginal. Since it's a TV movie, my expectations were pretty low to begin with. Turns out the film was even worse than expected.The CGI was appalling but that's fairly understandable for a low budget production. What really got me was the poor acting, and the terrible, terrible editing and sound. The directing was so bad that I think even I could have done a better job although I have no training in movie making. Also, my advice to the actors is to find another profession. How can they possibly be that bad? If the cast was random people picked up in the street, statistically they couldn't have been this poor. 100 Million BC was probably filmed in a few days and grossly sold off to cable channels that needed fillers.I'm still giving it a 2/10 because the beginning of the film was mildly intriguing, and because Marie Westbrook (yes, I actually looked her up) is a treat for the eyes, the only one in the entire movie by the way.

I give movies like this (and fan-made Star Trek films) a 1 star rating. If they had a negative rating, I'd give that.I would have given it a 2 had Michael Gross not worn his glasses in such a "I'm way smarter and older than you", edge of his nose kind of way.I'd like to know where the people who were initially transported back got their furs. They must've found a whole bunch of mice and sewn their skins together to make a coat.So, a SEAL team goes back in time with nary more than the shirts on their back and minor caliber weaponry. No bullet-proof vests, no armor of any kind. Did they not see Jurassic Park? I mean, they went into a situation more well-prepared in Aliens and they got their butts kicked.
