Description:
Suspense Thriller based on the famous short story by master of fiction Ray Bradbury. In the year 2055, a technology has been invented that enables people to go back in time to hunt dinosaurs. When one such expedition to the Prehistoric past unwittingly makes a fatal mistake it dramatically impacts the course of evolution, setting off waves of destruction that ripple toward the modern world and unleashing an army of fearsome creatures that never should have existed. Two scientists race against time to fix the catastrophic error while their world collapses around them and every minute brings the human race closer to extinction.

Rating:  - Good B-rated sci-fi movie
I'm not sure why this movie has gotten so many bad reviews. I've seen it three times on the Sci-Fi channel and each time I couldn't stop watching it. The movie has many unexpected twists and the creatures are truly creative and scary. Among the creatures are some very large hanging bats, some strange looking gorilla-reptile things, a water eel-snake thing, large flying birds, dinosaurs, and some people-eating vines.
Rating:  - Distant Sound of Foo!
The source material is good. This is garbage. Stupid does not even begin to describe this mess. The viewer must wonder how such an interesting and thought provoking idea could result in a travesty of Hollywood excess and mis-management. The writers, producers and director should be ashamed of themselves. The writers especially do the concept a disservice. I avoided this until I was desperate for something to watch, and it was still a mistake. Maybe some day a good production of Ray Bradbury's concepts ... Read More
Rating:  - Deserves zero stars
Why translate a _great classic_ scifi story by a master like Ray Bradbury if you arent't going to make even a token effort at getting it right? Bradbury's short story is one of THE classic scifi stories, along with greats by Arthur C. Clarke, Isaac Asimov and even the original god H.G. Wells.
This is the kind of movie that makes you wonder how some talent keeps getting work at all, in this case Peter Hyams, who could not have done a worse job. And what fooled the actors into taking a role ... Read More
Rating:  - Ok, Lots of fun, CGI is bad.
This movie was pretty good for what it was. I am sure if the company had more money they could have come up with a lot better looking story. What they couldnt come up with is a better story. It was pretty good. I feel Ray would have been pleased with the result. I mean the story is what drives the talk not the pretty pictures. They serve as a backdrop. Seriously, if you want to do better, call a production company, have them set you up with 100 million dollars and knock yourself out. Other then ... Read More
Rating: - Plot holes beyond scope
Plot hole to destroy the ENTIRE Movie
Here it is. They go back in time. One creature is accidentally killed. Causing this WHOLE movie to go thru it's plot. But consider this, in the movie, There is a Volcano exploding with pyro fall and the works and it blasts thru the area in question where this creature was killed. Considering what this one creature is that got killed, there is no way in hell that creature could survive or any offspring to survive after the volcano hit that area only minutes ... Read More
