Dino King

People are ridiculous complaining about random dinosaur inaccuracies. This is a movie for children - a little brutal - but somehow my boys don't care and love it. They've watched this as many times as I used to watch Dumbo. (Wait, you mean elephants can't fly?) If you want a documentary on tarbosaurus or tyrannosaurus or velociraptor, then this isn't for you. I wouldn't watch an action film and then complain about how the drama was unrealistic. My recommendation: don't overthink this people.

I enjoyed the movie a lot watched it in 2012 when I came out and my opinion still hasn't changed after rewatching. It does have its flaws the narration can be kinda annoying at sometimes but the story is good better than the walking with dinosaurs narration tbh.

As a dinosaur enthusiast, I can comfortably call this movie the Citizen Kane of dinosaur movies. With dynamic characters and a riveting story that seamlessly tied in adult themes (love, death, and revenge) to a children's movie, I can safely call this movie a future classic. Every frame and line of dialogue is pure 24k GOLD. The one-line zingers keeps the audience on the edge of their seat for the entire movie. One of the best movies OF ALL TIME. The movie can be thoroughly enjoyed by a viewing by yourself or with a group of friends. 11/10 would recommend, can't wait for the sequel coming this summer! I will certainly have a showing of this in my college's dinosaur club.

My 5 year old daughter really like Dino Dana on Nickelodeon. She watched this movie and it touched a nerve for her. She cried because of sadness and happiness. I allowed her to continue watching this movie because of it's great story and the realistic approach that was lacked in Dino Dana. Now my daughter got a glimpse of what the dinosaur world could have been really like instead of the imagination of a Dino Dana girl. I respect both shows.

Tarbosaurus was one of those movies where the technology was excellent but the movie wasn't. Right now, IMDb is running 3.8 points on this, and as I am a lover of dinosaurs I was merciful and gave it that much.

The movie comes from South Korea and their animation was really good. Their sound effects were generally good too. Unfortunately they ruined it all with an overly anthropomorphic set of cutesy characters. Oh, the fun dinosaur family. Single Mom, oldest son, younger two daughters and then the little boy. Oh how cute.

The dinosaurs were also far too intelligent. Note the boulder being used as a weapon against the ankylosaur. Tool using dinosaurs, come on! The motivations were not logical for predators. They took unnecessary chances and they wasted opportunities.

For a movie out within the last few years, they also messed up a lot on Dinosaur facts. They put the movie at 80 million years ago and have velociraptors. The velociraptor found were from 75 to 71 million years ago. The velociraptors also had big feathers on their arms. They showed them with a "mohawk punk rocker" bit of feathers but that's all. Worse yet, they showed protoceratops and pukyongosaurus. They were from the EARLY cretaceous, tens of millions of years earlier. They said the torosaurus (like a triceratops) broke off its horns and showed them as hollow. The "horns" of ceratopsians were solid bone, not hollow horn.

I could go on and on, but you get the picture. They were so close but they blew it.
