What do we have here? The title is pretty attractive
but only if you are dumb, or just eccentric, movie fan
the incredibly bad movie that makes your head hurt like hell.Now, a group of navy seals are following a dangerous terrorist named Azir and the hostage girl that needs rescue. But
this would be just another shallow action/rescue film without dinosaurs
Did I say dinosaurs? Yep, I did. The island, somewhere, somewhere
in the south China Sea
we don't know is it unknown, uncharted, or whatever
a perfect place for action
oh let's add some dinosaur, wait wait
with the bad CGI
and there you have it, a shallow, dumb film with dumb story, bad characters, lousy camera
so, the dinosaurs came out from underground, mating and hatching
and nobody, I mean nobody checked it out
and all other things as well
Lorenzo Lamas is Hacket, a leader of navy seal team. I expected from him a good old martial arts scenes, but no, he did the role because he can act? Well, he is not a very good actor, but if you are taking a low budget martial arts star, better put in some fights in the film, because with this performance, we got just a dumb soldier who commands other soldiers. Steven Bauer? Well, no surprises here, this guy's career has been washed up since 80s, he appeared in too much low budget films, or in too many tiny roles in some better known films
nah
he is washed up
other actors did a silly performances, especially Hristo Shopov (Quinn) . What the hell is wrong with this guy? That was one of the worst performances I have ever seen. He talks in these husky, badass tones that makes you want to laugh until you s**t yourself
We also have Peter Jason here
well, no worries there, he already also did a bunch of low budget films, and he is a good actor, but, this film is one of the lowest in his career.Skip this film, and get yourself some other abomination. Not to mention a sequel called Planet Raptor (2007), which is even worse
hell even Carnosaur trilogy is better than this
Don't waste your time with this.

I'm usually a fan of these kind of straight-to-DVD movies, and dinosaur movies in general, but this one was not very enjoyable. The plot was loosely put together and I felt like it was generic and unoriginal. Only towards the end to the characters start to get interesting. For what its worth, the raptors were pretty fake, but thats not really my complaint with them. They just never seem to die and are VERY stupid. I would have liked to see more of a variety of dinosaurs and when they attack, I'd like it to be believable and a tad more gory. If you have LOTS of time on your hands, go ahead and watch it, but be warned you might fall asleep.

Some of the cheapest looking CGI creatures you'll ever see attack some of the most poorly trained mercenary troops to ever brandish fake looking weapons on a bogus "South Sea island" set (in Canada). The goofs are endless, the script resembles mangled Swiss cheese, and the story is pretty much a chaotic maze of nothingness.The Raptor attacks are priceless. Usually they stand around, hanging out in groups doing nothing, as nitwit Green Beret wanna-be's pepper them with hundreds of rounds, and they just kind of stare in stupefied apathy as the useless bullets shower them. One of two things always happens: Either they get sick of being shot at, and they gang tackle the victim and then some animated blood spurts around; or a poorly done CGI red blotch appears on the poor confused Raptor and it drops over in a heap, never losing that silly grin they always seem to have. The chronological order for the victims-to-be is so obvious, they might as well have had numbers painted on their faces.Viewers definitely need to "turn off the brain" for this material. The writer, director, and cast certainly did.

Raptor Island was possibly the worst movie i have ever seen. Characters suck and so do the actors who play them. The visual effects look like animated cartoons. the story is terrible and ending is stupid. All the commandos suck at aiming. And the black guys dies, which pisses me off. I would watch it for a good laugh.It stinks.The ending stinks the actors stinki would rather eat my own vomit then watch this movie again.Only watch this if you wanna laugh
