cute to see dinosaurs and that's about it.

Rating: 5/10 (21 December 2003)

It's so funny how different peoples' tastes are. When this movie first came out I went and saw it and my feelings haven't changed on it through the years. I basically moderately enjoyed it while I was watching it and then didn't think much about it. It didn't really stay with me.
The main thing I liked about the movie is of coarse the amazing special effects. But in terms of the story itself I did not get to involved. Once the awe of the concept wore off, That was it. But perhaps that's because I'm not terribly into science fiction pictures anyway.
I have certain friends who consider this a masterpiece. I will admit the special effects were amazing but I wouldn't consider it as a masterpiece, though it was definitely an extravaganza. And it is worth seeing for the rare Few who may not have seen it, particularly people who maybe into this type of flick.
I'd give this about a 10 for the special effects (seeing dinosaurs running around was kind of cool) but I'd rate it only about a 5 or 6 or so for level of interest. As mentioned, I'm not generally into science fictions and didn't find this scary. Nor did I see the sequel. Cute to see once and that's about all.
