Go see this movie this weekend and watch non-stop action, US Army verses dinosaurs in 1968 in Vietnam.
Excellent special effects, good story, very nice equipment.
They did have two M38 Jeeps with the steering wheel on the wrong side? Did someone flip the film, or was it because the movie was filmed in Australia and they used a local Jeep?

Mrs. Bunkermeister and I had a great time.

I've been waiting for it. I'm guessing that my 16 year old son wants to see it as well.

Was waiting to see it, then saw some trailers and clips. Now, not so interested in seeing it. Bunkmeister, you comments on the film make me think maybe I should see it. Going back and forth here I know.

I'd rather see a film based on the Destroyermen series of novels— WW2 US Navy and Marines manning an obsolete WWI style destroyer are swept into an alternate Earth complete with an empire of intelligent carnivorous dinosaurs and a republic of intelligent, man-sized lemurs. In short order the Americans ally with the lemurs… unaware that a Japanese "super" battleship has also entered the world, and allied with the dinos! Great series, would be visually stunning. Best as a series for Netflix or something like that.

79th, My wife and I are still talking about it.

Grattan54, it was non-stop action.

Parzival while there are many other movies I were rather made I only get to watch those that are made. So I take what I can get.

MRS Bunkermeister and I recently watch the UK series Primeval and Canadian Primeval America. They should have been tariffed. The special effects were great, the monsters awesome, the cast marginal and the actions of the characters stupid and impossible.

The consistently outran dinosaurs that moved 35 miles per hour while being chased in the open. They outran explosions that move at least 1,500 meters per second! None of that in this movie.

I hope they have a good opening so they can have a larger budget and tell a bigger story next time.
