Amazing how something like this gets greenlighted...

Right, well I don't really have to state that I wasn't exactly harboring much of any grand expectations to a movie with the title "Kingdom of the Dinosaurs", now do I? Yet, I still opted to watch the movie, regardless, as I believe in giving a movie a fair chance.

And needless to say that writer and director Scott Jeffrey didn't exactly deliver a top notch movie here. The script and storyline in the movie was a rather generic, very much a rip off of the "Jurassic Park" concept idea genetic cloning of dinosaurs gone bad and the dinosaurs escape captivity. That was basically it, so you're not in for 80 minutes of rocket science here, should you opt to sit down and watch "Kingdom of the Dinosaurs".

I was only familiar with two performers on the cast list, and that was Nicola Wright and Chrissie Wunna, both of which have an abundance of shoddy, questionable B movies on their resume. So you're not really in for 80 minutes of Shakespearian theater when you sit down to watch "Kingdom of the Dinosaurs", not that I was actually expecting much of any acting really.

As a movie with dinosaurs, then having believable and realistic-looking, or at least as realistic as one can assume extinct dinosaurs would look, sound and feel, is definitely a must. Did they have that in "Kingdom of the Dinosaurs"? No. Of course they didn't. The CGI animated dinosaurs stood out like a sore thumb, and not even a blind man would buy into what was being shown on the screen. The CGI in the movie were atrocious, which is rather amazing for a movie made just last year.

Actually, the best thing about "Kingdom of the Dinosaurs" was the movie's cover. Yeah, I kid you not.

My rating of writer and director Scott Jeffrey's 2022 movie "Kingdom of the Dinosaurs" lands on a two out of ten stars.
