Bear with me here, because I only watched this once while I was babysitting and I zoned out and almost fell asleep. also, I haven't watched it since. the idea is interesting, it could make a very good story if handled correctly. the problem here? it was not handled correctly. low budget does not mix with CGI, particularly CGI dinosaurs. I also understand that yes, this is a film for children, but children growing up on movies like Jurassic Park and Jurassic World will not be impressed by the CGI here. trust me: remember how I told you I watched this while babysitting? exactly the point. the kid I was watching was much less unimpressed, but still not enthused by the story. of course, lousy writing will affect older audiences like me more than them, but it's still an important issue to hit. however, I will say that the acting from our lead actor, Kyler Beck, was surprisingly good and I expect he'll be landing roles in bigger projects as time goes on. we'll see if this goes anywhere for him, but there's definitely some potential and talent there that casting agents should (and most likely will) see and utilise to their advantage. worth the watch if you have a younger kid, just make sure they haven't seen any Jurassic Park movies first.
