Robbie Collin Daily Telegraph (UK) Too gory for my inner eight year-old, and my inner 12 year-old cringed throughout. Rated: 2/5 Aug 9, 2012 Full Review Nigel Andrews Financial Times Rip-roaring fun ... Rated: 4/5 Aug 9, 2012 Full Review Adam Lee Davies Little White Lies The dinosaurs do the business, but they are let down badly by the human element. Rated: 1/5 Aug 9, 2012 Full Review Joseph Walsh CineVue The weak central father/son relationship lacks much-needed bite and authenticity, whilst a badly-placed revenge-cum-horror story fails to register. Rated: 1/5 Aug 23, 2018 Full Review David Aldridge Radio Times It's British, it's kind of fun and, at barely 80 minutes, it doesn't outstay its welcome. Rated: 3/5 Aug 16, 2012 Full Review Stefan Pape HeyUGuys The Dinosaur Project, is exactly what you would expect from a found footage orientated, British film about dinosaurs... but that, unfortunately, is not a positive acknowledgement. Rated: 1.5/5 Aug 13, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews

Hayden S An underrated dinosaur movie for sure. It's short, so it doesn't out stay its welcome, but it has plenty to love. The weakest part of the film is the betrayal twist near the end - but otherwise a fun movie! Not what you come to expect from the B-Movie section at Walmart. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/09/24 Full Review Giorgio S This come out sfter all the terrible paranormal activities,but it' s interesting. Yes the dinosaurs are not realistic and the humans are boring but it's watchable Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/25/23 Full Review sven h The camera was weird but the CGI was stunningly great, I had a great time watching it and I recommend it if you don't have problems with "found footage" movies Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/13/23 Full Review Kaya H Mäh… brutal, implausible in it's storyline and bad depiction of Dinos. The camera choices where really weired and the „camera accidentally cut of" type of filming was super annoying Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/07/23 Full Review Liam D A very mediocre Found Footage movie but a very decent Dinosaur movie Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/19/22 Full Review Audience Member It has all the dumb cliches from found footage movies. The only difference is that instead of aliens, ghost or something like that, we have a few (because of the low budget) dinossaurs suprisingly well animated. Besides the decent CGI, the storytelling is just acceptable, despite the awful decisions of the characters and mediocre acting, and it's overall an entertaining movie. It's clearly a bad movie, of course, but with just 80 minutes long, it's not a waste of time. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
