Sick Product of a Sick System
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
I'm not sure why I bothered to watch this movie after seeing the first one, but I thought it would be better given a few years to better the visuals, but i was WAY wrong. The dinosaurs were the same crappy, rubber puppets used in the first film, although they did seem a little more gruesome.The plot seemed okay but what would dinosaurs be doing in a facility in the middle of the desert, with no explanation of who put them there or why? Most of the actors I'd never heard of except Fred Savage, and he was the only actor who even seemed to try.I have to admit that if this film had a large budget, the visuals could have been better and the movie might have been better, but this ultimately was a stupid and pointless sequel.And one other thing, DO NOT believe the reviews on the front cover, I don't know how much the produces paid them to say this film was everything Jurassic Park should have been, but that was probably where most of the budget went to.
Well I must say that I did really enjoy this movie. I know this thing is no where near perfection, and I'm not judging this movie based on that. I am a big movie watcher and I must say that I was able to sit through the movie all the way through and stay pretty interested to see what was going to happen. I was actually impressed with the dinosaur affects. The velociraptors were actually pretty cool looking. These dinos looked more vicious than the ones in the first one did. It gave the Carnosaur title more meaning i think. I did notice the tyrannosaurus was the same from the first one, but this movie used it more which i think that was a plus. Overall the acting was mediocre, I thought John Savage was pretty good. The nice thing about no name or mediocre named actors is you don't really know who is going to die. You may get an idea, but you still watch to see how its going to go down. I would recommend this movie if your bored and nothing is really on TV. It is definitely worth watching. It is much much better than the first Carnosaur and even better than the lame Carnosaur 3. I would say this is the best of the serious. Even though its got the alien like plot but another fun factor is that the team going in there to repair the plant aren't armed to all living hell with guns. I'd say this movie learned a little from the first Carnosaur and then watched Aliens and was like, "hey, we can make a dino sequel!" I give this movie an 8 out of 10 simply because its better than the first and way better than the 3rd, but a fun movie overall and if your disappointed then you'll be only losing a buck at family video lol.
Similar to the first film, Carnosaur II is a b-movie gorefest intended to capitalize off the popularity of Jurassic Park. Featuring no actors of any notoriety (other than Miguel Nunez...guess he REALLY needed work), this film is a forgettable flop that centers around a boy genius of some sort who has to disable a facility that's mass producing hungry dinosaurs. The raptors are featured prominently and the Rex is limited to a few shots due to a major malfunction with the robot (a rather impressive feat, to build such a huge robot for such a pointless movie). The ultra-gory death scenes start happening in rapid succession, culminating in what is probably the most memorable of all: a secretary of some sort is pulled through the roof of an elevator. A raptor sizes her up, painfully bites off her arm, then...goes straight for the pubic mound. Don't believe me? Rent it or watch the clip on youtube...the Raptor dives right in to the poor girl's genitals and feasts away, ultimately tearing out her uterus. Oddly enough, the girl makes rather orgasmic noises throughout the entire affair...apparently she's a b-list porn star according to some sources, which may explain why.The ultimate rip off death features a female helicopter pilot, bringing the evac chopper over to the troops, only to be ambushed from behind. As the Raptor tears her apart, her blood showers the window as she struggles and flails her arms...I'd almost swear the scene was just ripped from Aliens and spliced in! If the idea of genital-eating dinos and low budget gore fests is your thin, go ahead and give it a rent...you won't be disappointed. Otherwise, if you have any self respect or any iota of respect for the film industry, just ignore this movie's existence.
Plot: Carnosaur II is not a sequel to Carnosaur, it just follows the same principle - humans running away from dinosaurs. Out in the Nevada desert ("80 miles in all directions") is a secret facility with lots of subbasements. When a computer team is called in to repair the place and find out what happened to the crew, chaos reigns. The team starts to get eaten one by one by a group of very intelligent dinosaurs, often smarter than the humans. The two women in the group have the messiest deaths (one like Aliens, the other is a piece-by-piece meal). A boy and one member of the team manage to get out, only to find a single T-rex after them. The facility was sitting on a uranium mine, so with some dynamite the two blow it up and escape on an Evac helicopter.DIRECTING: 4/10- Okay...nothing to be amazed over but a few nice shots and at least a little coherency.WRITING: 3/10- Pretty bad. Lots of people yelling "We got to get out of here" and "We're trapped".ACTING: 6/10- The acting, especially from lead role John Savage, is pretty good for a indie monster film.GORE: 6/10- A severed head, severed limbs, some light blood here and there, a chewed off arm. The kill scenes are graphic and bloody, most are shown on-screen.MONSTERS: A Carnosaur and a group of raptors.SPECIAL EFFECTS: 4/10- The monsters look a little rubbery, but the gore is on the money. The Helictopter crash scene is one of the worst since "The crawlers".MUSIC: 3/10- A few forgetable military-esque tunes. Nothing to write home about.Final verdict- "Carnosaur 2" is a lame monster movie. Good gore, but every thing else is forgetable and dull. It's like a low-budget version of "Alien", except put rubbery raptors in place of bizzare creatures. My rating for "Carnosaur 2"- 3.5-10. Not worth watching.
