Hatched

It is so awfully, painfully slow. You can easily doze off between lines of dialog. OK, not that slow, but you get the picture. It is very rare that I don't watch a film to its end. But this is one of those rare films. I had to turn it off and see something with more suspense/action. A photo shoot of someone chewing gum would be more gripping than this film.

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.

Bad acting, Bad CGI, Bad script.

Don't waste your time.

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!

Hatched was a pretty good British dinosaur flick. It was suspenseful enough and had a decent back story. Maybe the premise is a little farfetched to believe that a single individual was able to accomplish what a myriads of scientists could not. In comparison with the Jurassic Park franchise, this had much more superficial explanation for what transpired. It is curious that these actors were cast since I didn't find the teenagers particularly interesting, and I find it hard to believe that any law enforcement person would have the authority to do what he threatened and eventually carried out. Still, there was quite a bit of suspense and the movie proves you don't need a whole lot of dinosaurs to reign terror in a relative small space.
