Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
View MoreA Major Disappointment
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
View MoreThis is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
View MoreMy kids absolutely adored this movie! They couldn't stop watching it! I remember them walking around town like they were pretending to be t-rexes! I was absolutely embarrassed but was it worth it? Dang right it is! How did this not receive the award it got nominated for
View MoreYes it is rather silly, but it does have a great concept. I was not expecting another Walking With Dinosaurs, which is one of the best documentaries I have ever watched in my life, but Preehistoric Park is a lot of fun. I really like David Jason, and while he has done better, he does a good job as narrator. Nigel Marvin is also really entertaining, he is very likable and clearly has a lot of enthusiasm for this. As well as being introduced to these wonderful dinosaurs, the special effects I thought were mind blowing, the T Rex especially was exceptionally well done. I also really liked the music. Overall, Prehistoric Park was silly but my sister and I learnt quite a lot and loved it all the same. 8/10 Bethany Cox
View MoreFollowing in the prehistoric footsteps of 'Chased by Dinosaurs', creator/producer Time Haines has brought Nigel Marvin back for a new program, of prehistoric safari. Six episodes, and dozens of new creatures, Prehistoric Park, takes things one step further (or at least it promises to). In the end it takes one step backwards, and here is why.This series is more focused on show than science, and it goes a little over the top, occasionally reaching a level of gimmicky. Nigel Marvin and his team are setting up a Jurrasic Park kind of Facility. Using a time portal, Marvin intends to go back in time to various points in prehistory and return with creatures that are endangered at those time periods. If you are not bothered by the absurdity, you will certainly find the program cute, but it can be equally annoying at times. When Steven Spielberg made Jurassic Park, he claimed that he wanted to show animals, not monsters. Prehistoric Park takes that a step further. The creatures we see are not merely treated like animals, they are treated like pets! From wrestling games with a Triceratops to a Mammoth haircut, I doubt if anyone will find this program as awe inspiring as its 'Walking with' predecessors. What is most annoying however is the decision to throw in a narrator. Totally unnecessary, It ruins the Cinema Verité factor, making the program feel even more artificial.Despite error, Prehistoric Park is entertaining simply because it never takes itself seriously. Even if it doesn't do justice to prehistoric life, it is a feel good, quirky kind of program, that kids as well as adults can enjoy.
View MoreWith an excellent blending of computer graphics and live action filming this series brings dinosaurs to life in a way no other series has. The combination of anthropology and current day zoology makes for an enlightening look into the lives of dinosaurs. Our 5 year old son absolutely loves Prehistoric Park and watches each of the 6 currently available episodes repeatedly. Prehistoric Park has replaced Dora the Explorer, Go Diego Go, Curious George and all his other cartoon favorites. It's all he wants to watch. All I can say is, Thank You TiVo. Without it my son would not be able to get his daily dose of Prehistoric Park. He constantly asks me to check the website to see if another episode is finally available. Even his older brothers ages 13 and 10 find this series interesting and eagerly await a new episode featuring another prehistoric animal whether dinosaur or ice age mammal. As for the adults in the family, we find the antics of Nigel and his staff as entertaining as the dinosaurs. Admittedly there are some parts that will make the more mature roll his or her eyes but that is also part of the charm of the show and what draws the younger viewers.
