Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
I admit, the only reason I wanted to see this flick is the fact that Emilia Clarke is in it. This was her first full feature and made just before her stardom via Game Of Thrones. It's a SyFy flick and have seen a lot of them I knew what to expect.This one is a bit goofy because by accident dinosaurs are brought back to life. It shouldn't be SyFy if they added something silly, the dinosaurs are only skeletons. The skeletons do break out of course and are attacking a town. So it's naturally CGI to create the Dino's. To be honest for a SyFy flick it was rather above my expectations. And attacking they do but in a rather stupid way, they eat , the T-Rex for example, but existing only of bones the bodies fall out of his mouth. And at a beach after an attack the beach is full of separated body parts but it all looks funny and not believable.Mediocre flick, goofy in many ways. Luckily Emilia has chosen dragons in stead of Dino's. Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 1,5/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0/5
Upset about the building on his sacred land, an Indian shaman summons an ancient spirit to stop the construction, but when they take the form of the dinosaur skeletons housed nearby, he joins with the police to stop their rampage before they eat the entire town.This here turned out to be quite the decent Sci-Fi Channel effort. One of the film's better features is some rather fun and enjoyable action scenes here that give this some fun and enjoyable scenes, as the ceremony to bring them back to life is one of these highlights. There's some fun to be had with the gathering of the different elements needed, the flashing images as the connection occurs unknowingly during the ceremony and then finally unleashing the skeletons which leads into the secondary attack on the construction site outside in a wholly impressive scene, while the student attacks in the forest that eventually results in their bloody discovery later and the escape in the police car trying to dodge the creatures always breaking in, bursting the creature to pieces before chasing them into a water- tower. Later action scenes here are a lot of fun as the big school-site ambush as it begins rampaging through the gathered faculty members at the ceremony which brings on plenty of fun action with the encounters of the staff and the others trapped inside while giving this some rather fun action. That doesn't even get to the film's two main highlight scenes, the big attack on the beach where skeleton creatures goes on a rampage at the fraternity initiation and begins chomping down on the members quite gruesomely in an extended and enjoyable sequence, while the finale comes off as a lot of fun with the secondary spiritual ceremony and the different attacks on the town before finally getting to the unique and creature finale that's wholly fun here. Along with the novel idea of the skeletons instead of the flesh-and-blood creations, there's some good parts here though it does have a few small issues. The biggest problem here is the film's use of those skeleton dinosaurs, as they're an absolutely horrendous execution filled with several problems as this absolutely kills off the gore here by never giving the kills anything to go on as this barely even contains any blood. None of the kills here have any of that, and it's such a detriment that the cheesy atmosphere is completely gone. That also gives way to the film's other problem with such ludicrous and pathetic CGI that's beyond laughable and becomes such a severe flaw considering the screen time they have as this continues on with the same flaws as usual. Otherwise, this was a decent enough effort.Rated Unrated/R: Violence and Language.
We have some unwanted property development impending near where we live. Sadly, we don't have any native American medicine men who can summon up - wait for it - magic dinosaur skeletons. Yes, that's what we have in this entry in SyFy's increasingly rubbish made for TV critter movies (increasingly? No, they've been rubbish all the time). The only reason to see a trite, hackneyed, predictable piece of tosh like this is the critters, and they are so lame that it negates the point of seeing the film in the first place. I have trouble seeing how a pterodactyl comprising only bones can fly. Ah, magic. Yes, of course.When I said "lame", I may have omitted to say that the dinosaur skeletons don't convince visually, particularly as they are startlingly badly composited into the background plates.Another SyFy channel winnah!
I'll give some credit where it's due. I did think the locations did look beautiful and there is one good character, Wyatt, played with quirky enthusiasm by Gabriel Womack. However, while SyFy have done far worse than this(just look at Camel Spiders, Quantum Apocalypse, Titanic II and Alien vs. Hunter for examples) Triassic Attack is pretty lame. The skeleton dinosaurs' designs are a step above designs with dinosaurs in flesh and blood, but they still look substandard. The audio is overbearing at times and sometimes overshadows the dialogue. Nothing exciting musically either. The script apart from Wyatt's amusing quips is generally weak and unimaginative, and the story feels leaden and the usual suspend disbelief moments with a lack of thrills and suspense. Wyatt aside, the characters are clichéd and dull, and the acting more often than not look very stiff here. The direction is somewhat efficient, but ultimately joyless. Overall, not the worst I've seen from SyFy, but apart from the scenery, one good character and Womack, there was little good, in my opinion that is. 3/10 Bethany Cox
