Summary: WOW! These dinos have bite--really they do!
Review: When I first checked out the movie "Carnosaurs," I had no idea of what kind of movie it wold be like. But wow! These diosaurs really do mean buisness when it comes down to chewing on innocent little humans. Of course, there are some sequences in the movie where, you have to stop the movie in order to take a really close look at the dinosaurs and see what they are really made of--rubber. But no matter how they look, they still have bite. This movie is more ingrossing than Steven Spielberg's Jurassic Park. I've only seen this movie half-way through, and I don't intend to see it again...

Summary: cashing in on jurassic park
Review: when this movie was released in the summer of 1993, same summer as 'the other dinosaur movie', I was very curious to see it. but I never acted up on it and instead saw Jurassic Park six times.so when it was released on video, I decided to check it out. and I'm sure glad I avoided it at the theaters. I have never read the novel it was based off, but I'm interested to see what changes were made.. the acting is credible, characters somewhat developed... but the effects; if you can call them that, are unconvincing at best. that is the main reason I watch a dinosaur movie. the special effects. and this movie did not deliver in that field. the dinosaurs were hand puppets, rod controlled puppets, and a close to full size tyrannosaur animatronic robot. and yes, I could tell when which technique was used and when another was not. the tyrannosaur robot provided the best performance but it was severly underused. for those who are interested in seeing a gory version of jurassic park, check this one out. just don't expect the same feeling of awe and wonder of spielberg's epic.
