Review: Dinosaur Island DVD

Dinosaur Island isn’t a very good movie but for the younger audience (probably 10 and under), it might be worth viewing, anyone older will find the acting to be pretty poor, some bad/cheap visual effects and a story that really isn’t all that interesting. The DVD released by Millennium is basic with no bonus material but the video/audio transfers are both well done.

VIDEO – 4.0/5 | AUDIO — 4.25/5

Dinosaur Island is presented with a 2.40 anamorphic widescreen transfer showcasing good colors throughout and only minimal aliasing, normal for a standard definition release. The movie comes with a Dolby Digital 5.1 track which offers good dialogue levels, though you could clearly tell where ADR work had been done, and sound effects come through each channel relatively well.

OVERALL – 2.0/5

Overall, Dinosaur Island isn’t a very good movie but for the younger audience (probably 10 and under), it might be worth viewing, anyone older will find the acting to be pretty poor, some bad/cheap visual effects and a story that really isn’t all that interesting. The DVD released by Millennium is basic with no bonus material but the video/audio transfers are both well done.
