Best movie of this year hands down!
Just perfect...
Don't listen to the negative reviews
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Without a doubt one of the worst movies I have ever seen.The acting was cheesy and overdone - half the cast looked like they didn't want to be there. There are many reviews I see that say this is a good film for kids. I have to say that's an insult to children to say that. Most kids are smart and quick enough to catch on when there is a bad film in front of them.The effects were terrible - they didn't even try with any of it.The story plot itself is predictable and boring, I was pretty much force-talked into watching the thing and even then, I walked out within the first 2 minutes.Bottom line: This is the kind of movie that your local rental store would probably put in the back with all the other "this never happened" stuff that they wish would not be tainting the rest of their stock.
Oh this was just HORRIBLE! I am still puking! Can you imagine if the flying turtle dropped a speeding turtle turd on you while you were in your row boat? I think this was based on a true story. Apparently there was an over-sized turtle that lived in the Pacific Northwest that had a neck that put most porn stars to shame. He was accepted by the locals and soon became a charter and rented himself out as quick mode of transportation. I saw this flick on HBO one night and was completely blown away by the special effects and dialogue. When the credits rolled, I had a tear in my eye and was wishing that it wasn't over and that there might be a chance of a sequel.
Horrible acting (what was Julie Haggerty doing?) and bad special effects ruin a good lesson to be learned by kids. I know this is not for adults, but watch the Secret of Roan Inish, a kids movie that isn't stupid! It can be done.
Would you believe? A kind of giant turtle that can fly ( and without wings!). Not only the story is full with clichés, the acting is awful (I saw it dubbed in french which is worse)but even my son (13) found the FX ridiculous. I can't believe this was done in '99. Looks worse that an old japanese monster movie to me...
