    A good 90's kid's show

    I watched this as a kid and for the longest time could not remember the name of this movie only the plot. Finally I found the name and after another year I finally found a copy. This movie is extremely dated by this point and rather campy but it is still a lot of fun. There are numerous references to other movies throughout and rather humorous attempts at dinosaur related jokes and retorts at the beginning of the movie. Those painful jokes thankfully die off once the actual action gets started and the kids develop some character beyond being obsessed with their show. Almost everyone gets some time to grow and while the effects are a little sorry, it can be forgiven considering when it was made. There are a few sexual ententes on the extended edition but anyone under the age of 14 is unlikely to notice just like with some Disney movies.

    This movie is extremely hard to find and I doubt it ever came out on DVD but if you see it somewhere and want to harken back to your childhood you could do a hell of a lot worse!

    Underrated, and misunderstood.

    This movie isn't about a sophisticated attempt to tunnel into the past

    using a sample memory storage device to extrapolate possible scenarios.

    No. This movie is about KIDS.

    It's a plausible daydream-fantasy for a child interested in dinosaurs

    (Geller, Ross Jr. ?), cartoons (oh, small crowd there) and any kind of

    technobabble (see StarTrek) - it teaches hardship in life and the value

    of friendships, much as those popular (*sickly*) children shows. It

    teaches the American Dream. Give your kids a chance with this one -

    they'll probably love it; just as i did when i was 7 or 8.

    Pretty Good For A Cheesy TV Movie

    When Timmy and his friends Jamie and Mick decide to watch their favorite cartoon on Timmy's father's new invention, they are sucked into the world of the cartoon, but sadly, they see it is not as colorful and perfect as they think, and now must team up with the heroes to save Saur City from total meltdown at the hand of Mr. Big and his Rockies.

    Yeah, the movie is cheesy, but seeing as how the world is inside a cartoon, it actually works for this film. While the outside look like a kids' cartoon, the world when the kids enter looks as imperfect as the real world, as there are some stuff that would not fly in a kid's cartoon (one scene has the three kids going through a graveyard that Mick says "would've been too scary for kids", and another takes place inside a bar). Thankfully, the actors do a good job, and the dinosaur characters, which are a mix of puppets and suit actors, are incredible for a movie that was made for television. This is a good cheesy movie that is worth checking out at least once.

    Haven't seen this in YEARS!

    This was one of my favorite movies when I was a little kid. I was starting to think I'd imagined the whole movie. My parents don't remember it, and I'd never ask my friends if they ever saw it. Now that I look back I realize just how silly the whole thing was. I guess when I was little I didn't really care about the plot or the acting. All I cared about was watching that T-Rex and his buddies. The evil dinosaur always scared the heck outta me, and I always had nightmares about him. It made me sad to learn that the guy who was Rex died a while ago. All kids watch today is this cartoon crap on cartoon network. What happened to shows like this?

    Not so bad

    I remember watching this movie when I was in the third grade. I woke up early and was watching the Disney Channel, and the movie came on. Automatically, I was hooked onto it. I haven't seen this movie in such a long time, but at that time is was something that put a smile on my face. To say that is' a silly, stupid movie that deserves no praise is pretty harsh. Yes it wasn't the best movie ever made, and yeah, it didn't have the best actors in the world. But this is in no doubt the set up for those "sucked into games" fanfiction. This shows how those kids would respond if they got sucked into their favorite cartoon, just like how fanfiction authors write about how they would interact with the characters, change the story lines and travel the world after being pulled into their favorite cartoon, movie, or game. I think this movie put that fantasyworld of ours into motion, and for that it deserves a lot more respect.

    I can't say much more at the moment. I'll only conclude that it was a funny, sweet and cute movie, and I'd love to watch it again.
