I just can't! Please watch this! It might be horrible, but it has the same appeal as The Room, Battlefield Earth, etc. It's just so funny. I love this movie. Don't take it seriously, if you want to watch it, I advise you to watch it as a Comedy. The story of Navy SEALS going to the south china sea, they meet terribly CGI raptors and hilarity happens. I really recommend watching this with friends if possible, just so you can watch it and laugh together. I don't care if you disagree, I'm giving this a 9/10, just because of its existence. Really, Please make a sequel! Please. So what happens is The people go to the island, There are raptors there, the acting is terrible, the effects are terrible, the story is terrible, but I just don't care. To be honest, this is probably the movie that you find at the video store on a Friday night and you decide it looks cool so you rent it. Please, don't take this movie seriously, its a fun ride if you don't, so turn off your sense of a good movie, pop it in, and have a fun time.

This movie was horrible. I couldn't stand it. The computer graphics looked like they belonged in a cheap video game and the fight scenes were the worst i had ever seen. The people couldn't shoot worth crap and when they did manage to get some hits on the raptors, the corny blood spat out and there wasn't even an entrance or exit wound. In the scene where Azeer was killed by the three raptors they ate his entire body, bones, organs and all, in about 2.73 seconds. I think that's a record. Also whenever the people would start shooting the raptors the raptors just stood there like nothing was happening until they decided to run away. The acting was bad but the plot was okay. I rate movies half on how much I enjoyed them and how well they were made. I give this a 2/10 and that is the worst i give. Go watch a better dinosaur movie like Jurassic Park or something instead of wasting your time watching this.

Raptor Island was possibly the worst movie i have ever seen. Characters suck and so do the actors who play them. The visual effects look like animated cartoons. the story is terrible and ending is stupid. All the commandos suck at aiming. And the black guys dies, which pisses me off. I would watch it for a good laugh.It stinks.The ending stinks the actors stinki would rather eat my own vomit then watch this movie again.Only watch this if you wanna laugh

"Raptor Island" isn't as good as it could've been.**SPOILERS**Trying to capture the wanted terrorist Azir, (Steven Bauer), Navy SEAL Hacket, (Lorenzo Lamas) sneak on board and interrupt a weapons deal, forcing him to escape with hostage Jamie Cole, (Hayley DuMond) to an uncharted island. Hacket and his team follow suit, and are able to free Jamie from Azir's clutches. Still determined to bring him down, they follow Azir inland, where they find Dinosaurs running loose on the island. Trying to stay alive from their repeated attacks, the team tracks back to survive the dinosaurs and get Azir back to their headquarters.The Good News: While I do want to bash this movie, there are some good things about it. The underground caves in here are pretty spooky, and give off a nice atmosphere. The low-lighting to them gives the ambiance even more credibility, and it's got some of the best scenes in the film. A real highlight, as well as the closing solution to the problem. Yet, it's pretty predictable, but it deliver the action when needed. It's a great way to end the movie, on a real high note. The film has a rapid pace to it, so it really goes by quite fast. The continuous action doesn't hurt matters, and makes it a nice stream of action sequences that don't really let up. This is about it though.The Bad News: This is were most of the review goes. Gone is all forms of logic or explanation for anything in the film. We never get any explanation to where the Dino DNA came from to be mutated from, much less how they were able to survive on an island for that determined amount of time without any food. Why do Raptors, some of the smartest Dinosaurs, act as though they are incredibly slow-witted? So many times they simply stand still, absorbing the blows from the fighters and the only thing they do is take it. They stand around getting shot, and the only time they manage to move is when they finally run out of ammo or they decide to attack. It's nonsensical for the creatures to be acting like this, especially since they were said to be so intelligent. Why they would act in such a manner doesn't make any sense. They don't appear threatening, and they appear to be pretty unintelligent. That handles the logic aspect of the film, which doesn't include the other parts of the film. The creatures are not only bad actors, they look just as bad. This is some of the worst digital effects to ever disgrace a movie cell. It is laughable how bad these look compared to their counter creatures from "Jurassic Park" that it's often hard to think of the two as having come from the same source. There's a lot more with this, but it's hard to remember all of it, but just know that it really failed when it could've been a cheesy throwback to the early creature features of the 50s.The Final Verdict: It could've been a throwback to the cheesy films of the 50s, but it really isn't that. It does have some okay moments, but it's only for the hardcore fans of the Sci-Fi Channel's films or the ones who have to see every Dinosaur movie ever made.Rated R: Violence and Graphic Language
