AGE OF DINOSAURS

Cinemavixion Review

Joseph J. Lawson's 'Age of Dinosaurs' plunges viewers into a prehistoric pandemonium set against the backdrop of modern-day Los Angeles. The premise, as outlined in both local and external descriptions, centers on a biotech firm's ambitious, yet ultimately catastrophic, creation of living dinosaurs. These genetically engineered beasts inevitably break free, unleashing chaos upon the sprawling metropolis. Starring a capable cast including Treat Williams, Ronny Cox, and Jillian Rose Reed, the film attempts to blend creature-feature thrills with a human drama, focusing on a former firefighter's desperate attempt to rescue his daughter amidst the carnage. While the concept promises high-octane action and suspense, the film, according to its IMDb rating of 2.9/10, seems to have struggled to fully capitalize on its potential. Despite the familiar tropes of escaped monsters and urban destruction, 'Age of Dinosaurs' may offer a passable, if flawed, viewing experience for those seeking straightforward dinosaur mayhem, rather than a critically acclaimed cinematic achievement.
