Though the plot was somewhat unclear and reminiscent of Jurrasic Park, it was an interesting movie in my opinion. I enjoyed watching this movie with my friends and we were on the edge of our seats throughout most of the movie. The graphics could have been slightly better and more detailed, the action scenes were very intense and actually very suspenseful. Some parts were predictable but I was surprised about how well put together the movie was. While most of the people who wrote a review say that the movie is terrible, I see the potential for a great movie series after watching it. Age of Dinosaurs really is an underrated thriller that doesn't get the praise that it truly deserves to be given.

Terrible CGI, terrible acting, terrible plot! The film is so repetitive- find my daughter, found her, oh damn, lost her again! Time to find her again! Rinse and repeat.A defense for the awful CGI may be 'They had a low budget' in that case, they should have never made the movie! Simple as that! I wouldn't mind if this movie didn't exist because they had no budget.We could have had a good movie with bad CGI, but the crew weren't trying! No movie screams 'We don't give a crap' more than this one! It just reeks of disinterest more than any film I've ever seen!Also, as far as I'm concerned, being a firefighter doesn't mean being in the military! So I don't understand why our main character is such an expert with guns and fighting simply through putting out fires!

Had to sit through this for a bit since some friends wanted to get silly! At the end we were depressed and sorry, very sorry, and for a bunch of all different motives, curiously enough! Well, I was sad ( beside the point that Asylum is still making Z grade pictures and still going strong, how/why? ) to see a truly aged and uninspired, almost desperate looking, Treat Williams once and not too long ago, a star capable of exemplary, and even though at times underrated formidable performances ( think Milos Forman's strong "Hair" and Sidney Lumet's very, very good "The Prince of the City" and many more always at least respectable International films, where the actor always would bring his raw manliness and, never less than compelling talent!) while here he's practically deconstructed, abused, and badly photographed in a way that is indecent and almost moving and unnerving at the same time: his material is again Z grade but there are actors able to convey some to such inexplicable products ! Not Mr. Williams and certainly not, all the rest of this embarrassingly amateurish, poorly directed cast, typical faces of the shady D to Z Grade Hollywood's film industry sad underground belly. What to make of this? I don't know, I just know that nobody made it to the end , and , we strictly avoided even just talking or making a joke about such sad experience for the whole rest of the evening, as if it hadn't been enough of a nuisance, and so horribly jeopardized by just such a low, lowest general level, something I could only define like a caricature of a bad movie, really I could not call this even some cheap little show, more like a misfire of very sad and timely proportions! Everything was beyond unacceptable, even the lousy Cgi, and, I'd rather not say about the writing, and, directing, lensing, and sets, because it could get way too bitter and offensive! Best to laid them all to rest in the shelve of time holding the forgotten crap made in Films, and also with a true hope: that is that sooner than later, Asylum successfully will abandon this miserable and excruciating failure in filmmaking ( even that of bad filmmaking!) and, all of a sudden, embrace a new business, maybe in the butchery or debauchery jamboree of much lighter weight fare,something carrying way lower more manageable by them responsibilities and eyes, intents and education they obviously so awfully lack of in this Industry! Maybe, even more engagingly remunerative since it would appear these budgets are always so laughably spent! I don't see one reeding quality here, just one: stay away from this garbage, please !!! Stop making such bad movies please .. It starts feeling like more of a criminal intent than an exercise in ( really bad) entertaining ! And even for a movie with this lame title : and that my friends is saying something! Ugh!

I gave this a four because I like Treat Williams and it was fun to watch Jillian Rose Reed jiggle. Nice to see Ronny Cox get a role where he is not an evil bad guy for a change. Of course he is not to informed about the things going on in his company, so in a way he is ultimately responsible for all the death and destruction that is unleashed when a whole bunch of dinosaurs created by his company are set loose on LA (no real lose). I found the articulation of some of the CGI creatures to be3 suspect. They just didn't seem to move right. It did start to get pretty ridiculous in the last many minutes. The daughter jumps for the chopper, grabs dad's hand/arm, slips out and starts to fall. Then a pteranodon swoops by and grabs her out of mid air. First I don't think it could support the girl's weight while in flight. Second well the first reason is enough. Then there is the scene at the Hollywood sign where Treat pushes the flying lizard that got trapped in the crashed helicopter over the edge using one finger. This is a typical SyFy channel under produced and written movie.
