After a long week of being sick, let's have some Chinese.
Let's go back to Monster Island for...
They go to fight and...enough of that.
A Mom scares her kid to...prove he can't run from danger (thanks to a leg injury).
Parent of the Year.
They- along with a group- go to the Island on a Bus.
Parent of the Year.
It is attacked by an off-screen monster and eventually that same giant frog.
The group split up when the kid disappears.
Hey look- the guy from Metamorphosis again AND he's wearing the same outfit.
Did he Film these at the same time?
The survivors must defend themselves against the Snake, a pair of T-Rexes (which lets them rip off the big Scene from 2005's King Kong) and other perils- including man-made danger.
Who will win in the battle between Dinosaur and Python?
Who will survive?
Who will survive?
To find out, stream it now...
A pretty fun, if another self-serious Film. I'd say it is a step up from the last one.
Not a giant one, but it is something.
Not a giant one, but it is something.
The Pacing is odd here as they tease the big fight right away and then save it for the end. Between the two points, more CGI monsters and more dumb people. The latter are less distracting.
The melodrama is still there- it really is a Chinese thing, it seems- and it involves the kid and mom. There is at least a good attempt here with it and it does pay off nicely in the end. I didn't hate it and it was far less distracting than the last few of these.
I do get the feeling that these Films are bleeding into each other though, between repeat Cast Members and Monsters. That freaking frog is back, and their T-Rex model gets a revival here. The scale here is a bit absurd, as the tail of the snake is larger all around than several people.
If you can put up with the melodrama, it's worth a watch for lovers of this CGI bollocks.
Better than many of these, even if they are recycling Plots, CGI Models and Actors quite a bit. These really were put together in a Factory, weren't they?
