I put this on to have a laugh at some inept and shocking film making but am actually not that shocked. Yes it starts off terribly but as soon as the lead enters it gets better. She is not a bad actress and most of the supporting cast arent terrible either. A couple are terrible though.
Aside from the CGI, the quality of acting, prod values, cinematography and score are about at the level of a BBC crime drama, which is high praise for a movie like this. Basically I have seen much much worse and at least the actors know how to act fairly convincingly. So, on these fronts it isn't too bad at all.
The CGI is atrocious. I know we couldn't expect Jurassic Park levels of CGI but it is 2022 and surely there's a ton of good CGI compositors out there now for a reasonable price. Obviously not. As the movie is based on dinosaurs and it's kind of the theme having bad CGI really lets it down. If you really suspend disbelief you may be able to get past it, we all knew the dino's in Jurrasic Park were fake after all, but they were convincincing when you were immersed in the movie of course.
I guess most of the really bad movies I've seen were from the 90's and 2000's and I haven't seen any low budget modern ones before this. I'm surprised how much the quality of the lowest budget films has wrisen over the last decade or so, if this movie is anything to go by. I supposed good quality film equipent is cheaper, or rather, you can do a lot more with less, including drones and such and learning to act is more accessible.
Anyway, apologies for the non-review that's more of a ramble about modern low budget films.
