      Audience Member i love the film...its a must see if you get a chane to watch this film....If your not interested just watch the film once i think you would like it aswell...its a nice adventure...nice family film... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member A blatant attempt to make archaeology interesting. The title is WRONG: He searches for Dinosaur SKELETONS, not dinosaurs (thank god). essentually though, the movie is just okay. Not dull. Not stupid. But its not fun, interesting or...anything. It stirred no emotion in me. Like watching fluecent paint dry on the ceiling above you. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Because this film can be found in Bargain Bins these days it is in danger of being underrated. This is in fact an intelligent story about the race to find a skeleton of a T-Rex starring Simon MacCorkindale as a legitimate paleontologist and Christopher Plummer playing his rival who it just in it for the money!Both give shining performances and are equally matched by the two young stars who join the bone hunt. Beautifully written and performed. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Neat family movie. The child actors are very good, and Chris Plummer portrays a real cruel bastard.
