Hatched

Bad plot, bad acting, bad, bad,bad!

And it you have a smart tv it gets worse because everything looks so real time that you can see the horrible visuals.

The movie is slow and I've never seen anyone take so long to realize that a dinosaur is literally next to them. How can you NOT know that a T-Rex is close? Really?

There are serious amounts of cliches and it's just the cheesiest thing I've seen in a long while.

What a load of old tosh! Why was the so called private wearing a bicycle helmet! Terrible acting and very poor story line. The Doctor went from replicating DNA to reproducing dinosaurs...as one would of course. People in the world are suffering so why no bring back t-rex?

The whole thing should really have been watched before releasing and put in the bin... The CGI is not the best and the army chaps are no more army than me! I don't know how much the budget was but it was too much. Its a shame really as it could have been so much better and the acting better. Never mind...Hatched??? More like Hatchet!

But my god!!!.....The characters were frustrating, just did so many things that made you think...Really?

Like waiting for a long period of time as the dinosaurs got closer and closer so they can eat them. Not doing obvious things like closing doors behind them when being chased by raptors in the house. And nearly EVERY time someone broke into a run they tripped over.

Some of the overreacting was hilarious.

The dinosaurs themselves were convincing enough.

Mark can't be a boy. I don't get it . Pretty cheesy movie. I thought it was Hatching....wrong movie. I heard the Hatching was a lot better...be it in a different language. The car won't start....really ????

Well, I will admit that I wasn't really expecting much from the 2021 movie "Hatched" when I sat down to watch it. Sure, I liked the movie's cover/poster, but it definitely had that 'oh, it's going to be one of those horrible CGI movies' feel to it. But still, I opted to watch it.

And I will say that the movie wasn't actually as bad as I had initially feared it to be. Sure, this wasn't by no means a milestone in cinematic history, but it was better than I had anticipated it.

Granted, the storyline told in the movie made little or no sense at all, and there were just so many plot holes throughout the course of the movie. Not to mention the stupidity of the actions performed by the characters in the movie. So yeah, in terms of a proper script and plot, then "Hatched" was a less than mediocre movie.

Visually then I found "Hatched" to actually be a surprise. The movie definitely had much nicer CGI renderings of the dinosaurs than I had thought it would have. But the CGI could only do so much for a movie that lacked a proper script and storyline.

The acting in the movie was a bit of a mixed bag of nuts so to speak. Some of the performers actually put on adequate performances with whatever little they had to work with, while others put on lukewarm or amateurish performances.

Directors Scott Jeffrey and Rebecca Matthews just didn't really manage to come up with an overwhelmingly interesting movie here. It felt like a "Jurassic Park" movie on a very, very tight budget. But hey, at least it wasn't as bad as the dinosaur movies that is churned out by The Asylum.

Ultimately then "Hatched" is a semi-watchable movie, albeit not an overly interesting or entertaining one. I am rating it a less than mediocre four out of ten stars. This is, however, not a movie that I will be returning to watch for a second time, nor is it one that I will run out and encourage people to rush in to watch.
