I'm not sure if they want to convince people that this is filmed in America, or they are making a joke out of it intentionally. Here are some glaring mistakes that I noticed that made this movie borderline unwatchable:
-Soldiers being transported around in a civilian truck -Soldiers carrying AKs. Their uniforms say US army... -Soldiers wearing covers, while others are not -Over half of the vehicles seen in the movie are not sold in the US -You can clearly see the steering wheel on the right side of the vehicle -Characters breaking accent and using strange language for everyday objects i.e. "bandage" instead of "bandaid".
Overall it was a pretty awful movie. They should have just had the movie set in Australia so there wouldn't be so many mistakes.

Story is great really enjoyed it but the acting was really poor. Needed more character back ground for all main characters so the audience feels emotional involved. Characters that I believe need the back ground depth are the friendship group and the bond/relationship between the main character and the dinosaur.
This film has so much potential it is a shame it wasn't executed well. Poor edit, band actors and no character depth.

Badly acted, kids performances made the adult actors seem even worse, couldn't be bothered waiting for the dinos to show up.
Not a lot to like about this film, was expecting something better.
Do yourselves a favour and watch, How To Train Your Dragon, the cartoon characters are more believable, likable and watchable.

This is an interesting attempt with better acting than some daytime television. The problem is not the acting, necessarily. It is the details that surround everything. The military shows up, and the fellow says he is a colonel. His rank shows him to be a SFC. There is no unit patch, no name tag. These are just uniforms picked up before being issued. Very basic. Soldiers don't wear covers, just wander around. Things just don't match up with the show. There are parts where you could excuse it, and say it's a kids movie, but the lack of effort is so obvious. They just seem to have gone down to the local Michael's store to buy equipment for the scenes. Just too many holes. I have seen worse (Trollz), but this is a low.
I apologize. This is an Australian film, which actually makes more sense. The bad attempt at American dialect, the subpar acting, the storyline that doesn't hold together. If you've watched Australian mermaid movies on Netflix, this is right in line.

The actors and the lines were simply weak and almost empty. The story itself was mostly there. The dinosaur and effects were the most Interesting part. My problem was the kids gets the dinosaur to "safety", leaves and then suddenly it's running through the street being chased by government. It's like the filmmakers as whole just skipped a chunk of the plot line altogether and then all characters are suddenly on a mission together. The story fell off the tracks. Overall it was making sense till that point and then got repetitive and random. I'd say skip this movie as you don't miss anything.
