And I suppose that's the point of these movies - watching some dinosaurs thump around and chase people.

SPOILER

I was so hoping the red head would get munched given that she was so annoying. What the lead guy (see already forgot his name this movie was so memorable) saw in this woman is beyond me. I'd rather kiss the dinosaur.

I didn't hate it probably because my expectations were so low that even this didn't live down to them.

Between this high budget film and last week's San Andreas - I find it funny that the third movie I watched with a TV Movie budget and is indeed a TV movie is vastly superior and probably a movie I'd watch.

Än Adventure in Space and Time"
Starring David Bradly and Brian Cox
"In 1963 Sydney Newman, progressive head of BBC TV's drama department, wants to fill a Saturday tea-time slot with a show with youth appeal and hits on the idea of an august figure, like a doctor, leading a group of companions on time travel adventures. He engages inexperienced young producer Verity Lambert to expand the idea. Fighting sexist and racial bigotry Verity and young Indian director Waris Hussein persuade crusty character actor William Hartnell to play the doctor figure and, despite technical hiccups and competition with coverage of the Kennedy assassination, the first episode of 'Doctor Who' is born. As the show becomes a success Hartnell displays an obsession with his character but, after three years, ill health catches up with him and he starts to forget lines."

I wish I could have went back in time and skipped Jurassic and just watched the above film twice instead.
