Michael O'Keefe Hallmark Entertainment presents this fantasy adventure and misadventures of an idyllic lost land where a society has been created where dinosaurs and humans co-exist. Millionaire Frank Scott(Michael Brandon)and his two sons David(Shiloh Strong)and Karl(Erik Von Deeten)crash land their plane on Dinotopia. Realizing they will never get the chance to go back home, acclimating themselves is a tall order. The harmony of co-existence and a successful society is in danger when the source of power, sunstones, begin to fail. David and Karl are not shy in giving their all to protect and preserve their new home. Frank has opposition when trying to get the symbiotic population involved in a new industrial revolution; which failed them some two hundred years earlier. The live action and CGI prehistoric creatures look smoothly mixed making this fantasy escapism more enjoyable. Other cast members include: Lisa Zane, Georgina Rylance, Jonathan Hyde, Sophia Ward and John Owens.
mark-422 This is one of the worst excuses for a TV series I've ever seen. The stories are plodding, the characters dull, and the "special effects" prehistoric.What could have been an entertaining romp is actually nothing more than schmaltzy pap, I'm afraid. Watch it at your peril.
Rupert Breheny Beautiful production and striking set pieces do little to raise this clumsy drama to any level of worthiness. With a laughable script and cheesy acting, so much visual inventiveness has been squandered. How unfortunate that the hackneyed and stilted story centres on the two bratty brothers rather than the rich and well conceived culture in which they find themselves. All a bit of a wasted opportunity I'm afraid. Effects do not validate an otherwise tedious experience.
mslik I really like this series. If you like a nice plot, with good acting and not to overdue fantasy, get this one. It's nice to watch for the children to, and the Dino's are looking not very real but real enough. Also the story line is on some points known but still a nice serie.
